HANDSET  REGISTRATION

When the handset is placed in the 
base station registration outlet, it 
transmits a registration packet to 
the base station via the registration 
outlet. The base station enables 
r e g i s t r a t i o n   a n d   b r o a d c a s t s 
registration data via air interface. 
Handset locks to this base station 
and registration is complete.
When a new handset transmits a 
registration packet to a base station, 
the base station checks how many 
h a n d s e t s   h a v e   b e e n  a l r e a d y  
registered. In case 4 handsets are 
already registered, the base station 
starts to search for the handsets. If 
it can locate all 4 handsets, then the 
5th handset can't be registered, and 
the registration is blocked. In case 
a handset that already is registered 
is out of range, or for other reasons 
does not reply to the search and 
notification request, it will be de-
registered and the registration 
procedure for the new handset is 
initiated.

In case of heavy air interference,

registration duration may be longer 
since registration consists of data 
transfer, that in contrast to audio, 
has to be  error free.
The way to de-register a handset 
and register it to another base 
station is to switch off the base 

station and plug the handset in 
a n o t h e r   b a s e   s t a t i o n .  A f t e r  
switching off the base station, the 
handset is no longer locked to this 
base station and can be registered 
to another base. When the handset 
is connected to the other base 
station registration outlet, a new 
registration will take place and the 
old registration doesn't exist. 
Note: de-registration is not a 
normal user operation.

IMPORTANT  NOTE

1.Place each handset in the main 
base unit to register it to the base.
2.Leave each unit in the base for up 
to 15 seconds until a long beep is 
heard, indicating that the handset is 
registered to the base unit.
3. The LCD display on the handset 
will read "READY".
4. Make sure to do this for all 
handsets.
