Base Station Configuration

Powering up the Base Station

After installing the base station you need to power it up. The base station uses:

• Power over Ethernet (PoE 802.3af).
• Maximum power supply consumption is 3.0W (IEEE 802.3af class 1 device).

Use a standard PoE adapter or a PoE-enabled port on a switch adhering to PoE 802.3af when connecting the base station to a PoE power source.

Accessing the Web Based Administration Page

In order for your computer to communicate with the base station it is necessary to change the computer’s Internet Protocol Properties to use the following:

• IP address: 192.168.0.2
• Sub-net mask: 255.255.255.0

The web based Administration Page is accessed through a standard web browser.

1 Open a web browser.
2 In the browsers Address bar, type 192.168.0.1, and then press ENTER.
  * Note: The base station is pre-configured with the IP address: 192.168.0.1 through the ETH port.

The Administration Page for the base station appears. First time you access the Administration Page, you need to log on with user name and a password. Default:

Username: admin

Password: ip6000

Handset Registration and Subscription

This section provides information about handset registration and subscription. You must register and subscribe a handset before you can use it. When registering handsets you enter information about the handsets settings (such as; the handsets serial number (IPEI), name etc.) in the system database. When subscribing handsets you subscribe a registered handset to the system for usage. If the handset is not registered in the system database, subscription of the handset is not possible.

Registering IP-DECT Handsets

To register handsets you use the web based Administration Page of the STENTOFON IP-DECT Server 6000. Each handset in the wireless solution must be programmed with the serial number (IPEI) before it can operate. This serial number must be registered in the web based Administration Page of the IP-DECT Server. Serial numbers are a unique fingerprint of each handset. The serial number is programmed into the handset during the manufacturing process and cannot be changed by field personnel.

1 Click Configuration and then click List Users.
2 Click New.
3 In the IPEI field, type the IPEI number (serial number) of the handset. 
4 In the Username/Extension field, type the Global User number configured in the AlphaCom, for example 201.
5 In the Displayname field, type the name to be displayed (caller ID).
6 Click Save to save the registration(s).

Leave the rest to default settings.
