Handset Replacement with Device Manager in DECT System

The handset to be installed must not have any previous valid registrations. If it has a valid registra-
tion, unsubscribe the handset.
1. Unsubscribe the old handset. If it cannot be performed in the handset, unsubscribe the handset via the
DECT interface.
2. Subscribe the new handset with the same extension number as the old handset. The subscription
procedure is described in the User Manual, Ascom d83 DECT Handset, TD 93434EN. During the
subscription procedure, the handset User ID is automatically set to be the same as the extension
number.
The User ID can be viewed in the handset by navigating to the menu: Admin menu → Device info →
User ID.
3. Insert the handset into a desktop charger or rack charger connected to Device Manager or use an IP-
DECT over-the-air connection.
4. Navigate to the Numbers tab in the Device Manager.
The new handset now has the same User ID as the old handset. The new handset is automatically
synchronized and data and parameter settings are transferred to the new handset.
The synchronization can take a while if Contacts in the original handset contains a large number of
entries.
