Note: If the UTAM Activation Code entry is unsuccessful, the display shows Invalid code. If this happens, reenter the code or call Nortel Customer Response Center at 1-800-321-2649for assistance.

Step 5: Configure Base Stations and portables

Once you have entered the required keys to activate the Base Stations and to obtain enough portable credits, you can proceed with programming these items with the MICS-XC system.

Configure your Base Stations

Companion Base Stations are recognized by the MICS-XC system once the UTAM activation keys have been entered. To verify whether or not the Base Stations have been properly recognized, see “Radio data” on page 63 for information on the re-eval process.

Register your Companion portables

Norstar Companion Portable telephones are added to the system using the portable registration process. Refer to the MICS-XCNorstar-Companion System Coordinator Guide for more information on registering Companion portables.

Tip - In the event your system has been powered down for an extended period of time, contact the Northern Customer Response Center to obtain a UTAM Regression Key.

If your Norstar Companion system seems disabled (all keys were input but Base Stations and portables are not operational), contact the Northern Customer Response Center to obtain a UTAM Recovery Key.
