5.3 Connecting a DECT Phone to Your Thomson Gateway
Introduction
The Thomson Gateway is equipped with a DECT base station allowing you to connect up to five DECT
phones. Before you can start using your DECT phone, you first have to register it to your Thomson Gateway.
Once registered you will be able to make phone calls over the traditional (PSTN) phone network (if enabled
by your telephone operator) or using VoIP (if configured).
Install your DECT Dongle first
Before you can use the Thomson Gateway as a DECT base station, you must first install the DECT dongle.
For more information, see “5.2 Installing the DeXtenTion Dongle” on page 31.
Registering your DECT phone
If you are using a Thomson DECT phone proceed as follows. In the other case, consult your DECT phone user
documentation to register your DECT phone.
1 (Re)plug your DeXtenTion dongle in the USB master port of your Thomson Gateway.
For more information, see “5.2 Installing the DeXtenTion Dongle” on page 31.
2 One of the LEDs on your DeXtenTion dongle starts blinking. This indicates that you can now register your
DECT phone. If the LED stops blinking before you were able to register, replug the DeXtenTion dongle.
3 On the Thomson DECT phone:
1 Select Menu.
2 Navigate to Settings and press OK.
3 Select Registration and press OK.
4 Select Register Handset and press OK.
5 Select in the base list the base to store this registration in and press OK.
6 You are prompted to enter the system PIN code of the Thomson Gateway. Enter “0000“(default
value) and press OK. Your Thomson DECT phone is now searching your Thomson Gateway base
station.
7 When the registration was successful, the message “Registered to base x” appears on the screen of
your Thomson DECT phone.
It is possible to register your Thomson DECT phone to up to five different base stations. If a
base in the list is marked with a green dot it is already used to store a specific registration with
a base station. If not marked it is empty and can be used for a registration with a new base
station.
