a) Add 3 base stations i.e. RFP1, RFP2, RFP3 > Disable the “Multi cell system” option and “Save”

b) RFP1, RFP2, RFP3: Reboot from the HTTP SME Configuration Main Page

c) RFP1, RFP2, RFP3: Default by pressing reset button 12-sec.

6.3.2 Stage 2

base unit i.e. RFP1 as Primary

a) RFP1: Define Time server and “Save and reboot” from the Time page

b) RFP1: Reboot automatically

c) RFP1: Press “Add server” and define SIP server IP and “Save” from the Servers page

d) RFP1: On the extension page add one extension (no handset needs to be registered). This step is

important for allow secondary base to join

e) RFP1: Multi cell system = enable and “Save” from the Multi-cell page

Socket#10 creation success)

6.3.4 Stage 4

Choose the 3

base unit, RFP3 as Secondary

e) RFP3: Multi cell system = enable and “Save”

f) RFP3: Reboot (Verify Debug log “SYNCMGR: This base is ready to join into another Chain”)

g) RFP1, RFP3: Wait 2min for stable Master-Slave chain (SYNCMGR: Socket#10 creation success)

h) RFP3: Check mark ID2/RPN08 and select dropdown “1 – RPN: 04” and “Save”
