Changing internal handset numbers and names
Each handset is automatically assigned an internal number (1 to 6) and an internal name
("INT 1", "INT 2" etc.) when it registers with the base station (page 86).
The internal numbers and names of all registered handsets can be changed.
¤ Open the following Web page: Settings ¢ Handsets.
The names and internal numbers of all registered handsets are displayed in the Registered
Handsets area.
¤ Select the handset whose number/name you want to change.
¤ Changing numbers: Select the internal number that you want to assign to the handset
in the No. column of the handset. If a handset with this internal number already exists,
you will also have to change the number allocation for this handset. The internal num-
bers 1-6 can only be assigned once each.
¤ Changing names: If necessary, change the name of the handset in the Name column.
The name may contain up to 10 characters.
¤ If necessary, repeat the process for other handsets.
¤ Click Set to save the settings.
The changes are present in the internal lists of all registered handsets. Handsets are sorted
by their internal numbers in the internal list. The order of the handsets in the list can there-
fore be changed.
Loading and deleting handset directories to/from the PC
The Web configurator has the following options for editing the directories of the registered
handsets.
u Store the handset directories on a PC. Entries are stored in vCard format in a vcf file on
the PC. You can edit these files with an ASCII editor (e.g. Notepad/Editor in Windows
Accessories) and load them onto any handset. You can also transfer directory entries to
your PC address book (e.g. Outlook Express™ address book).
u Transfer contact details from your PC address book to handset directories. Export the
contacts, e.g. with Outlook Express™ to vcf files (vCards) and transfer them to handset
directories using the Web configurator.
u Delete the directory on the handset. If you have edited the directory file (vcf file) on the
PC and would like to use this modified directory on the handset, you can delete the cur-
rent directory from the handset first.
u Tip: Back up the current directory on your PC before deleting it. You can then load it back
onto the handset if the modified directory is affected by formatting errors and some, or
all, of it cannot be loaded onto the handset.
Please note:
You can read how to change internal names and numbers from page 88 on.
Please note:
If an internal number has been entered twice, a message will appear. The internal numbers are not
changed.
