titleIntroduction

On this page you enter the data for a DECT manager to be added to the multicell system or edit the data for a DECT manager that is already assigned to the multicell system.



ParameterDescription
DM Id

DECT manager identification within the multicell system. It is assigned automatically. The identity must be used when registering the DECT manager at the Integrator.
After the DECT manager has been added, you should note this identifier to have it available, when you will have to enter the account data later at the DECT manager.

DM Name

The name is used to identify the DECT manager within DECT manager lists. Enter a meaningful name for the DECT manager, e.g., referring to the location or organisational
unit.

Password

The password must be entered when registering the DECT manager at the Integrator. Enter a password for DECT manager registration. You should note this password to have it available, when you will have to enter the account data
later at the DECT manager.

RPN Group

Part of the RFPI for a DECT manager. PARI and RPN must be locally unique in order to achieve that the RPN group allocated for the base stations of a DECT manager is locally unique in the system too.

Capacity

Defines the role of the device the DECT manager is located on. The device role has an impact on how many base stations and handsets can be handled by the DECT manager.

Small: Besides the DECT manager the device acts also as a base station. The DECT manager can handle up to 10 base stations and up to 50 handsets.
Medium: There is only the DECT manger running on the device. The DECT manager can handle up to 60 base stations and up to 250 handsets.

Select the desired device role for the DECT manager.

If you change the device role from Small to Medium and the local base station was synchronization level 1, it will be deactivated. Base stations synchronization needs to be adjusted in order to re-synchronize the system.


Reboot

  • From the Reboot of option menu select the devices you want to reboot: the DECT Manager only or the DECT manager and base stations.
  • Click on Reboot now Confirm with Yes . . . the reboot starts immediately.



Info

All existing connections managed by the affected base stations are terminated.
