Got my cordless 7406e back from repair and now i can't get it to register to the base unit. Wanting info on what i can try.
 
I have a ten foot pole!

Anybody wanna take a poke at this one? :)

If nothing else, maybe we should take a vote.

As much as I love them ICS Norstars, I've never had much faith in any of the Norstar cordless models. Most customers find that a dirt cheap, standard, cordless set on an ATA is far more practical and cost effective even if they can only have one line.

I don't know, maybe it's just me but I can't help but wonder how many other people think the 7410's and 7405e's were over rated, over priced, pains in the a$$? LOL!

Assigning the Handset to the Base Station
When you assign the first handset to a base station, you must send the
security code to the base station. For subsequent handsets, you only
need to identify the security code on the handset itself. This is
explained in detail in later sections.
This is the general process for setting up a T7406 handset:
• Identify the handset to a unique Handset ID # (1, 2, or 3)
Note: The handset ID #, which gets assigned to each handset,
matches up to TCM/RJ-11 jack on the back of the base .
station. Ask your system administrator which handset ID
maps to which set DN on the system.
• Change the default password for selecting a handset ID (default:
000000)
• Assign a Security code (S.S. code)
• Send the Security code from the handset to the base station
Note: Sending the security code to the base station is only
performed for the first handsets. For subsequent handsets,
you need only identify the security code on the handset.
• Assign the ring type
• Assign the ringer volume
• Assign the language that appears on the handset display

Configuring the First Handset to a Base Station

Security code, but each handset has a unique Set ID of 1, 2, or 3.
