Add and register a headset

Each newly purchased headset (VSP505) must be registered to a compatible VTech
VSP series SIP telephone before use.

The telephone base recognizes and counts a headset the same as a handset. You
can place the headset charger anywhere you have an available power outlet.

You can register one headset to one VTech SIP telephone. If the telephone already
has a headset registered, you need to follow the deregistration instructions on page 5
or in your telephone user’s manual before adding a new headset.

To register a headset:

1. Place the non-registered headset in the headset charger and allow it to charge for
at least 15 minutes before beginning registration.

2. On the telephone, press MENU and then select User settings > DECT headset.

3. Lift the cordless headset out of its charging base, and then place it back in the
charger. The

light on the headset ashes slowly and alternately in red and blue.

4. On the telephone’s DECT headset menu, select 1. Register.

It takes about 60 seconds to complete the registration process. The

light on the

headset turns red when it is registered but not fully charged, or turns blue if it is
registered and fully charged.

If the registration process is successful, you hear a dial tone when you press

on

the headset. If the registration fails, you hear “Not registered” when you press

on

the headset. The

light on the headset ashes slowly and alternately in red and

blue. To reset the headset, remove it from the headset charger and then place it back
into its charger. Try the registration process again.

• You cannot register a headset if any other system handset or headset is in use.
You can only register one headset to the telephone base at a time.

• The headset must be deregistered before registering it to another telephone
system.

Replace a headset

If you want to replace a headset, you must deregister the headset that is registered to
the telephone base.

To make deregistration easier, read all of the instructions on this page before you begin.

To deregister the headset:

1. Ensure the headset is in the charger.

2. On the telephone, press MENU and then select User settings > DECT headset.

3. On the telephone’s DECT headset menu, select 2. Deregister.

The deregistration process takes up to 10 seconds to complete. There is a

conrmation tone from the telephone base. The

light ashes slowly and alternately

in red and blue when the deregistration process completes.
If the deregistration process is successful, you hear “Not registered” when you press

on the headset. The deskset screen displays “DECT headset is deregistered”. If

the deregistration fails, you may need to:

• remove and replace the headset in the charger and repeat the deregistration
instructions.

-OR-

• reset the headset and repeat the deregistration instructions.

To reset:

• Pick up the registered headset and press the RESET inset button with a paper clip

or similar object.

You cannot deregister a headset if any system handset or headset is in use.
