Registering handsets with the base
1. Press the Reset button on the back of the base. A
five-minute registration period starts, which allows
handsets to register with the base.
2. If the handset is turned off, press the Red Phone key
to turn it on.
A base can support up to three handsets with
three concurrent calls. It can support up to
eight handsets if they aren’t all used at once.
If you have more than three handsets and are
getting busy signals, add more bases to your
installation in order to handle more calls.
If you have multiple bases, only reset one base
at a time, and wait five minutes before resetting
the next base.

3. Place the handset in the handset charger. The
handset automatically registers with the base, and
the Configure SIP Domain message appears on the
display. This message indicates that you must
configure the FON-860i as an IP extension, as
described in the FON-860i Telephone User Guide.
Once the handset is registered, the left connection
status indicator in the display will turn yellow.
4. Once the handset is registered, you can place
additional handsets in the handset charger for
registration. If the five-minute registration period has
expired, but the handsets aren’t all registered, press
the Reset button on the back of the base to start a
new registration period.
