Introduction

On this page we will explain you how to Configure the Virtual Integrator and how to connect the DECT managers.

You will need to follow the next steps.

  1. The Virtual Integrator is installed and running on an VMware.
  2. Configure the virtual integrator via the web-interface.
  3. Export the DECT manager handset configuration for easy import in the Integrator.
  4. Switch the existing Integrator / DECT manager (DECT Base) role to an DECT manager without Integrator.
  5. Configure the DECT manager to connect to the Integrator.
  6. Import the backup on the Integrator to activate all existing DECT handsets without manual registration procedure.
Virtual Machine

Please download the VMware workstation 14 Player.

Download the Virtual Machine that contains the Integrator you need. (*.ova)

Start the virtual machine and in the window you will see the IP address that you need to access the web-interface.

Configure the Integrator

Launch the web browser on your PC/tablet.

Enter the current IP address for the Integrator in the address field of the web browser (for example: http://192.168.2.10).

Enter the user ID in the Username text field (admin).

Enter the password in the Password text field. Default admin

Click on Login.


Logging in the first time

You will be asked to change the default password and to set the appropriate radio frequency band.

Enter a new password in the New password field and repeat it in the Repeat password field

Select the radio frequency band used in your region from the list.

Click on Set to save the settings and to open the administrator interface.


Add 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.

  • Select the RPN group number for the DECT manager from the option menu. Values: 0 – 3

Four RPN groups imply that there are potentially eight neighbours for a DECT manager. Neighbouring DECT managers must not have the same RPN group.

To ensure, that a handset in 3 cannot see two identical RPN from the left 2 and the right 2 area, it is necessary, that any DECT manager coverage area in any direction is large enough, to provide enough isolation between two DECT manager areas of the same RPN group.

Example: Any handset in 3 should either see base stations from the left 2 or from the right 2, but it must be impossible, that a handset in 3 can see base stations from the left 2 and at the same time from the right 2.
