Extending the functionality of the phone

Multiple handsets

Up to four handsets can be registered with the base.

Every device is assigned an internal name and internal number (INT 1 – INT 4). The assignment

can be changed.

All internal numbers are already assigned: De-register any devices no longer needed

Registering a handset

The Please register handset display flashes or you want to register the handset with a different

base.

Registering from the display key or menu

On the handset

¤ Press the display key Registr.

On the base

¤ Within 60 seconds, press and hold the registration/paging key for a minimum of 3 seconds.

Registration must be initiated both on the base and on the handset. Both must be

within 60 seconds.

¤ Menu Settings OK Registration OK . . . The display shows Registering...

Enter as required the system PIN of the base (default: 0000) OK

The registration process takes about 1 minute. Handsets are assigned the lowest avail-

able internal number (1 to 4). If internal numbers 1 to 4 are already assigned to other

devices, number 4 is overwritten.

Some Gigaset bases and bases/routers from third party manufacturers might not be

fully compatible with the handset and not all functions are displayed correctly. In

such cases, use menu entry Legacy (GAP) Registration. This guarantees correct dis-

plays on the handset, but can entail restrictions for some functions.
