3 Installation of Handsets
This section describes the recommended procedure for installing and configuring
handsets. There are several ways to install a handset but the procedures described
here guarantees simple maintenance of the system.
It is recommended to use the CPDM3 to install and maintain handsets in a large
system. The reason is that it enables to install, upgrade and configure a large amount
of handsets simultaneously. Another benefit is that the collection of the handsets from
the user is not needed. They can be maintained while placed in network connected
Desk PDM Charger on the users’ desks. Network connected Rack PDM Chargers can
also be used, or over the air in the case of IP-DECT.
The WinPDM enables administration of handsets inserted in a Desk PDM Charger or
Rack PDM Charger connected via USB to the administrator’s computer.
For WinPDM, see its Installation and Operation Manual.
3.1 Preparing WinPDM or Device Manager for handling of Handsets
If the parameter definition file (.def) for the handset is not present in the WinPDM or
CPDM3, it can be added by following the procedure below. The parameter definition file
and software file (.bin) are delivered as a package file with the extension .pkg. Note
that template files (.tpl) may also be included in a package file.
1 Open the WinPDM or the Device manager in CPDM3.
2 In the File menu, select .File Management> Add Parameter definition

3.3 Configuring Handsets in DECT Systems (Integrated DECT)
