Registering your handset

You will need to register your handset if it shows NOT REG in the display or if you wish to un-register from its original base and register the handset to a different base unit. You can register up to 4 handsets to your DECT 221 base station and up to 5 handsets to your DECT 225 base station.

To register your handset:

1. Press the MENU key.

2. Select SETTINGS and press the OK key.

3. Select REGISTER and press the OK key.

4.Before you enter the PIN, press and hold the PAGING key on the base for 4 seconds until a registration tone is emitted (DECT 225 only). The base is now in the registration mode. (If the base is full and cannot take on any more handset, it will emit a reject tone instead (DECT 225 only) and you will not be able to register any more handset. See Section 9 - Un-registering a handset - to delete a currently registered handset.)

5. Enter the PIN of the base and press the OK key.

During the registration period, you will see SEARCHNG on the handset.

You will hear a confirmation tone if the registration is successful. The handset label and the handset number will be displayed. If the registration is not successful, the previously unregistered handset will display NOT REG again and the previously registered handset will connect back to its original base again. Follow the procedure and try again.
