T7406 Cordless Handset Installation Guide

Assigning the Handset to the Base Station

When you assign the first handset to a base station, you must send the security code to the base
station. For subsequent handsets, you only need to identify the security code on the handset itself.
This is explained in detail in later sections.

This is the general process for setting up a T7406 handset:

Identify the handset to a unique Handset ID # (1, 2, or 3)

Change the default password for selecting a handset ID (default: 000000)

Assign a Security code (S.S. code)

Send the Security code from the handset to the base station

Assign the ring type

Assign the ringer volume

Assign the language that appears on the handset display

Using the Handset Display Buttons

The T7406 handset has a three-line display.

The three display buttons located under the display are used to interact with the handset menus and
the feature code messages that appear on the display.

The first line of the display shows

handset messages and menu items.

• The second line displays button
labels in capital letters.

• The third line displays the antenna/
signal strength icon and the battery
charge icon.

Configuring the First Handset to a Base Station

When you configure a handset to a new base station, you must ensure the base station receives the
assigned security code. For subsequent handsets, the security code must be identical, but it does
not need to be re-assigned to the base station.

Other settings are the same for all handsets.

Note: The handset ID #, which gets assigned to each handset, matches up to
TCM/RJ-11 jack on the back of the base. station. Ask your system administrator
which handset ID maps to which set DN on the system.

Note: Sending the security code to the base station is only performed for the first
handsets. For subsequent handsets, you need only identify the security code on the
handset.
