4.7. Connecting a DECT handset to the HG354
If your home gateway is equipped with a built in DECT base station, such as for
instance the HG354, you can connect DECT handsets to your home gateway.
For the handsets to work properly, they should support either the CAT-iq 1.0,
2.0 or the GAP standard. This is true for most handsets on the market that are
reasonably new. It might also be the case that your operator provides a handset
together with the unit you have received.
To connect (or pair) a handset to the home gateway, press the “Page” button
(see picture in 3.2 #7) on the home gateway for 5-10 seconds, the DECT LED
will start flashing when the pairing function is activated. Now set the DECT
handset in registration mode from the menu of the handset, the procedure for
this varies for each type of handset.
If the handset asks for a PIN to identify itself to the home gateway, use “0000”
which is the default PIN.
When the pairing is completed, the DECT LED on the home gateway will stop
flashing, and the handset will signal that pairing is completed.
Up to 6 handsets can be connected to the home gateway by repeating the
procedure above for each handset.
If you have several phone numbers you can change to which phone number a
specific handset should be associated from the local GUI of the home gateway.
Note that different handsets behave in different ways and that the description
above is a generic description for “any” handset. For details, see the user guide
for your DECT handset, or the information received from the operator if the
handset was provided together with the gateway.
4.8. Locating a DECT handset
A feature in the home gateway allows you to located connected DECT
handsets.
To locate the handsets press and release the “Page” button on the home
gateway. All connected handsets will start ringing. Press and release the button
again to turn off paging immediately, or wait until paging stops automatically.
