Cannot register dect 6.0 cordless units

Found out how to change the handset number [1] [2] [3] [4] etc on a Panasonic Cordless handset

Panasonic KXTG6644B

Changing Handset Number:
Deregister two Handsets [#1 & #2] 0r [#3 & #4] etc

On each handset hit -
[MENU] # 1 3 1
[ERASE] [YES]

(This leaves and open space on the base unit)

Re-Register 1st Handset [#1]
[MENU] # 1 3 0
Hold [LOCATION] on Base Unit 5 Seconds
Place the Handset you want #1 in Base Unit

Re-Register 2nd Handset [#2]
[MENU] # 1 3 0
Hold [LOCATION] on Base Unit 5 Seconds
Place the Handset you want #2 in Base Unit

335 is the magic code when you want to remove a previous handset or base station registration!
Handset:

1 " (middle soft key) i L i #

2 Enter "335".

3 "Cancel Handset" i #

LThe numbers of all handsets

registered to the base unit are

displayed.

4 Select the handset(s) you want to

cancel, by pressing the desired handset

number. i #
5 "Yes" i # i {ih}
Base Station:

A handset can be registered to a maximum

of 4 base units. A handset can cancel a base

unit that it is registered to. This allows the

handset to "forget" the base unit.

1 " (middle soft key) i N i #

2 "Registration" i #

3 Enter "335".

4 "Cancel Base" i #

5 Select the base unit(s) you want to

cancel, by pressing the desired base unit

number. i #
6 "Yes" i # i {ih}

Up to 6 handsets can be registered with the DECT 1480 phones. I have the 5 phone unit and needed to add the 6th phone. All I got was "Searching" in the display and the battery wouldn't even charge!

So here's what you have to do to get additional phones (up to 6 units) to work with the base. If you can get past step 1, it's a snap...

Step 1: Place a charged battery in the handset. This could be a problem if all your handsets are not registered, since unregistered phones don't charge (who thought of that design?). What I did was SWAP the battery from an already registered and charged phone with the new unregistered phone.

Step 2: Here's where the magic happens. Press the 'END' and '#' keys simultaneously... hold them down until a System Reset menu appears. Select "Deregister HS" and press Menu.

Step 3: Now, do the same thing again (hold down END and #), but this time select Base Unavailable and press Menu. You will see Base Unavailable Yes/No... Select Yes. Then place the handset in the base, wait a few seconds, and Voila!. it's registered. You can even change handset numbers using this menu if you play around with it.

Thank you, helpful employee at Costco for supplying the magic code. And hey there, UNIDEN... including this in the operation manual would have saved many customers much grief with de-registered phones!

Enjoy!

Hi,

This is because of the following reasons

1.The handset is far away from the base unit.Try to bring the hand set near the base unit and try.
2.The base unit is not plugged in to the power supply.Please check it.

Thanx

Hi,


This is because the extra handset might have not been registered with the base unit.The headset should be register to use the headset with that base unit.

To register the handset to base unit please follow the instruction:-

On registration the handset is allocated a handset number for use on the new base unit, the handset numbers are 1-5.

1. Press and hold
on the base unit until starts flashing. Registration mode will remain active for approximately 3 minutes.

2.Press and hold both
together until you hear a long beep.

3.Select the base unit you wish to register by pressing the corresponding number button 1-4.
4. When PIN is displayed, enter the units PIN number (0000 for this model).
5. If the registration is successful the handset will return to standby mode in a few seconds.

Thanx

Try placing the handset in the base unit to register it. Then see if it is found by the base.

[ARC20x User Guide p20: 11 Handset Registration]
To register a new handset:

1. Press and hold the HANDSET LOCATOR on the base unit until you hear Registration tone (repeated 'beeps')
2. On the handset, press the PROG then the UP or DOWN button to display "REGISTER"
3. Press the PHONE/OK
   -> The display shows "BS 1234". If any of these numbers is steady (not flashing), then the handset is already registered to that base unit.
   
4. Press 1 to select base unit number 1
   -> The display shows "BASE PIN _ _ _ _"
5. Key in the system PIN (default 0000) and press the PHONE/OK
   -> The display shows "WAIT _ _ _ _" for a few moments, while the handset searches for a base. Then it shows a list of handset numbers which are still free on the base unit.
   (For example, "1 34 6" indicates that numbers 1, 3, 4 and 6 are free; 2 and 5 are already assigned to other handsets.)
6. Key in a free handset number
   -> After a moment, the display should show the handset's name and number.

If registration fails...

• Try again, making sure you begin step 2 as soon ans Registration tone starts.
