I have some addional hand sets to register to my Samsung SP-R6100 cordless telephone base set. I followed the instructionsup to "Please wait" and it then registers "Failed to Register". It doesn't get to the point of asking for the Authentication code. What am I doing wrong? The handset now registers "Failed to Register" all of the time, even when it is it's base unit.

Add and register a handset
Each newly purchased handset must be registered to the telephone base before use. When first purchased, each expansion handset shows NOT REGISTERED.
You may need to charge the phone first.
To register a handset:

·Place the unregistered handset in the telephone base or charger. Press Find for 4 seconds. If the headset screen doesn't light up after the 4 seconds. You will need to charge it some more.
·After making sure it is charged set the telephone on the main base again press and hold the Find button for 4 seconds ( until the red light IN USE comes on) Then release the find button. The headset will show PLEASE WAIT; this takes about 10 seconds to complete the registration. The hand set will show HEADSET REGISTERED and the headset number assigned, you will hear a beep when the registration is finished
·When the registration is complete, the newly registered handset is assigned the next available handset registration number. For instance, if you already have HANDSET 1 and HANDSET 2, the next registered handset is HANDSET 3.
·Makes sure no other headsets are in use at the time or the registration may fail.
·You cannot register a handset if any other system handset is in use. Only one handset can be registered at a time.

You need to register the handset to your base to get the phone to work to do this follow the steps in the manual. If you do not have the manual go to the link below and scroll down to product detail then click on the blue product manual.

NO DIAL TONE problem might be with your phone company . or go buy a new phone and see if it works .

*331734#Menu Select on the handset should de-register that handset from the old base, then you can register it to the base as per the manual (put it in the base and hold down the handset locator button for 4 seconds)

Try re-registering the handsets to the base unit. This info is on page 46 of manual, use following link to get manual http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/support/Phones-Fax/Telephones/5-8-GHz-Phones/Operating-Instructions/model.KX-TG5672B.O#ts

Hi,

This is because of the following reasons

1.The handset is far away from the base unit.Try to bring the hand set near the base unit and try.
2.The base unit is not plugged in to the power supply.Please check it.

Thanx

you dont need to deregister it if you have not registered all 8 hand sets with your base unit. Just register the new one and the base will assign a new # for this new. I you had registered 8 hand sets with your base already, you need to remove(deregister0 one handset from your base(it can take only upt 8).
If it still not registering please deregister as follows:
on the base unit, press program, them mute, then enter 335#, then enter the handset number you wish to deregister.
after deregistering try to register your new hand set.

can you give me the make and model so i can better assist you.


thanks,
Nate

I am writing for my Mum, who is 99. We live far apart, so it is a bit difficult to fix her problem. She had a new Uniden DECT 60 (?) installed in early July. It seemed to be working fine when we left her, but she says it only rings twice before going to voice mail. She says it has always been like that. How can we fix this for her even though we live at a distance?.

How to get the caller ID to work on the additional GE DECT phone handsets. You must follow these steps in the exact order :
#1 - unplug the base phone
#2 - unplug the telephone line from the base phone
#3 - remove the battery packs from the phones
#4 - wait 10 minutes. reverse the order when assembling. Put battery packs in phones, put the telephone line back in the base phone and lastly plug all phones back in.
It takes about another 10 minutes after that before all phone handsets start recognizing caller ID.
