Register Handsets
Each handset used with a base station must be registered to that base station. Each base station and its phone number must also be registered with the Verizon network. Handsets that come with a base station are pre-registered. You can register up to five handsets to a single base station, or a handset to two different base stations.
To register an additional handset to a base station:
- Hold down the registration button [registration-button-icon] on the base station until its LED blinks.
- Press the handset OK soft key [OK soft key] and select "Register Handset".
- Choose the desired base station and press [OK button].
- After the handset finds the base station, press [OK button].
- Enter the base station PIN (default: 0000) and press the [Done soft key] to finish registration.
To register a handset to multiple base stations, press the OK navigation key, select Settings [⚙️] > Registration > Register Handset, and repeat steps 2 to 5. Ensure you choose a base station that is not already selected to avoid overwriting the existing selection.
Notes:
- A mobile telephone number can only be registered to a single base station, and a base station can only support a single mobile telephone number.
- A handset can support up to two different mobile telephone numbers if registered to two different base stations, allowing you to choose which number to use.

- When the screen prompts "De-register Handset," press the [Yes soft key] to de-register or the [No soft key] to cancel.
You can also de-register a handset using the web user interface at the path Status > Handset&VoIP > Delete [Delete].
Select Base Station
A handset registered to multiple base stations can only use one base station at a time. You can choose to have it automatically select a specific base station or one with the strongest signal strength.
