How do I pair an Aastra handset with a base station?

If your handset says out of range, does not work with the phone base, or you wish to use the handset with a different phone, you may need to pair the handset with the base phone.

There is a limitation of 4 handsets per base station.

Keep the handset within 3 feet of the base station during the pairing attempt.

Note: you must pair the base and the handset at roughly the same time, so they can find each other.

 

On the base station:

  1. Press Options

  2. Select Handset Pairing.  On newer firmware this is located under:
    Preferences, then Handset Pairing

  3. Choose Pair and Press Select

 

On the Handset:

  1. Press the Menu key

  2. Select Hset pairing

  3. Press the Pair softkey

 

The base station and handset will then display Pairing successful or Pairing failed

 

If the pairing fails, remove the handset battery. Wait 5 minutes, replace the handset battery and try again. It may take a few tries to pair successfully.
