Can you enter names for each handset so that when you want to intercom, you can choose (for ex) "basement" or "garage" as opposed to a number?

Yes you can. Press Menu -> Settings -> Handset Name. You will have to do this with each handset. Good luck!
1101938
I believe so but they are numbered and if you remember the number you will know what line is ringing
1101939
Yes you can. Press Menu -&gt; Settings -&gt; Handset Name. You will have to do this with each handset. Good luck!

Yes...you can select: "ALL", "BASE", "Handset 1" or "Handset 2" or "Handset 3", etc. I don't think you can rename the handsets.

I just went into my Ooma dashboard to see if that could be done and didn't see a way to do it. You can, however, assign a different ring tone to the second line so you can differentiate between which line a call is coming in on.

No, you cannot. Only way is if you have several phone lines, you can call on a different line and talk that way

Yes, you can buy another set with main unit included, or just the handset. I have done both and it works fine either way. It's still cheaper to buy just the handset. In either case, you need to register the extra handset to the same main unit, so intercom calls would also work. If having two main units, you lose the intercom function and each main unit would take up an extra ethernet outlet from your wireless router.

Yes, when the phone is not in use press the MENU button, then scroll to the Intercom function. If you only have two handsets it displays "call other handset", if you have 3 or more it lets you select the number of the handset to call. See page 43 in the manual for more info.

I think all of the sets announce caller Id--I disabled the feature early on and I think I had to do it at each of the four units individually.

Each phone has an identifying number at the top right. If you wanted to, you could keep each one in a specific location. We do not, however. They are all interchangeable. Of course, if you move them around like we do, the intercom feature wouldn't be very useful, as you'd never know where the phone you were paging was located. Hope this helps.

Hit Menu/Select - Intercom should be arrowed - Hit Menu/Select - if you want all receivers hit Menu/Select or scroll up or down for individual phone then hit Menu/Select.

809048
Yes you can. It had caller ID too, once u enter the number and name it identifies who is calling. Otherwise it identifies the number that is calling

You have the option of silencing just the base, or just the handset, or both. You can select on your own

There are a number of different ring tones that you can select. It is easy to have different ring tones for different doors.

I am not sure--I only have the one handset. On my Uniden--all four of them remember the last five numbers called--but they only can access the phone list one at time.

The phone locator is located on the lower right silver bottom named locater/intercom. When you press that button the speakerphone will "open" and then it will ring the phone after a few seconds. Also, on your other handset phones in the menu section under intercom you can call your different handsets as well.

I have the TCX905 extension phones....and yes, you can choose which line to place an outgoing call.

I called Uniden and asked. The only thing they could tell me is that the 9466 allows you to enter two numbers for each phone book entry where the 8866 allowed only one.

If you are referring to a phone set that is within the system, the answer is "yes". For example, I answer the phone, but the call is for my husband who is busy in his office. I can put the call on hold, use the intercom to ask if he wants to talk to the person calling, and then go from there. Or, by pressing the intercom button, if you have several handsets, scroll the up/down arrows to select a destination and then press the "select" key.
