Setting Up Your Phone

Naming a Handset or Base Station

When you register a handset, it is assigned a default name of Handset(x), where x can be 1, 2, 3, or 4. You can change the name to something more useful, for example a location (Kitchen) or someone’s name (Susan). Naming a handset makes it easy to select the handset from a list (for example, to intercom another handset).

If you name a handset, the handset number remains part of the name, for example, Kitchen(2).

You can also change the name of your base station.
