Yealink Star Connection is where you can connect multiple devices together.
The CP960 supports this feature so you can have larger conferences.
You can connect up to four CP960’s together, one will be the master phone and the rest will act as slave phones.
The Master phone will keep all of its features but the slave phones only sync some of the features of the master phone such as call mute and DND. The slave phones are only used for speakers and microphones.
Here is how to set up Star Connection:
Please note: before you start you must make sure that all the Yealink CP960’s are on the same subnet.
From the CP960 that you want to be the Master unit go to > Settings > AdvancedSettings (default password: admin) > CP Star Connection > Create Group (this will generate a random four digit pin)
Now from the slave units go to > Settings > AdvancedSettings > CPStarConnection > SearchGroup (this will automatically find the Master unit if they are on the same subnet) > once it finds the Master unit click > Join > enter the four digit pin displayed on the Master unit > OK.
The Slave units will then reboot into slave mode as shown below:
Once the slave units have rebooted you will be presented with a message on both units as per below:
Once all the Slave units have rebooted and you have confirmed by pressing ‘OK‘ you can then ‘StopBroadcast‘ on the Master unit.
You have now successfully setup Yealink CP Star Connection.
If you have any issues with any of the above please contact support@provu.co.uk or call 01484840048 option 2 for support.

If you are managing phones in ProSys whether that be adoptions or phones bought from ProVu, here is how to add any provisioning parameter onto the phone:
On the ProSys Dashboard locate the phone you wish to add configuration to by either searching for the MAC address or selecting the make and model from ‘List all devices‘ as shown below:
Once you have located the phone you wish to add provisioning to click on ‘View‘ or ‘Alid‘ under ‘Device Details’ as per the image below:
Then select ‘EditConfig‘ or ‘AddConifig’
Once you are on the configuration page go to > ‘Add Any Setting‘ tab > from here you can add any provisioning parameter you like in the ‘Key‘ and ‘Value‘ fields:
You should be able to find the provisioning parameters for your phone on the administration guide for the make and model.
Once you have found the parameters you wish to provisioning for example ‘Timezone‘ setting for Gigaset
SYMB_ITEM_BS_IP_Data1.uiI_TIME_TIMEZONE:26
You will enter the following:
Once you have entered the parameter click ‘Saveconfiguration‘ then the next time the phone calls home to our server it should pull down its new setting or you can simple reboot the phone to make it call home faster.
If you have any problems with any of the steps above please contact our support desk, support@provu.co.uk or 01484840048 option 2.
Yes, yes we do. Following our recent move to our new warehouse we now have the space to expand for visitor parking! Located just up the road from our main offices, guests visiting ProVu and our sister company, Alliot Technologies can now benefit from this space.
Our visitor parking is very easy to access, after turning on to Crow Lane, take the right (or left) turn onto Savile Street, which is a one way system. You will pass a row of houses on your right and another warehouse on your left, directly across from that warehouse is the ProVu Warehouse and Visitor Parking.
After parking your vehicle simply head out of the gates and turn right. Walk down the Street, cross over Lipscomb Street and Savile Mill, the home of ProVu and Alliot Technologies, is directly in front of you. Upon arrival, please press the intercom on the blue doors to attract the attention of one of our lovely team members and some one will come down to greet you.
If you have any other questions on how to find us please call 01484 840048 or email contact@provu.co.uk.
You may have recently noticed that some of your Yealink T2x & T4x series devices in use on your 3CX platform have been telling you that the FW version is no longer supported and you need to upgrade.
Yet when you try and upgrade using the 3CX fw upgrade feature it fails. The phone appears to start the upgrade but then reboots and does not upgrade.
The problem specifically is an earlier FW version that users were prompted to upgrade to.
The version in question is xx.83.0.55.
Something broke FW upgrading in this version and phones that found themselves on this version are no longer able to upgrade directly to the latest recommended 3CX FW version.
The fix for this is to manually upgrade the phones to an intermediary version xx.84.0.35 that fixes the FW upgrade issue.
Worth noting that it should also be possible to provision this upgrade to the phones.
After this upgrade the phones will be able to upgrade normally using the 3CX platform.
Helpfully, 3CX have published some guides on how to do this and where you can find the required FW files.
If for any reason you are unable to perform this upgrade manually, let us know, and we may be able to assist you in provisioning this upgrade to your devices.

On the 30th November, the ProVu team took part in a good ol’ fashioned lift and shift. Moving the contents of our current warehouse up to the new warehouse, a short way up the road from our main offices. This will give us the much needed space to house more products and also make it easier for deliveries and collections as the new warehouse comes with its own yard and car parking spaces for ProVu visitors.
Off the wagon
The Team spent the early morning packaging and palleting up the last remains of the warehouse after doing small pieces throughout the week. It was then loaded into trucks to be taken round to the new warehouse where they were placed into their new position. It took a lot of work but with all hands on deck, our team managed to move our entire warehouse in just one day!
The new warehouse will house all of our stock in one easy to manage space, and accomodate our continued plans for growth, which I’m sure we will fill in no time with our ever expanding list of products!
Out of the old…
…and into the new
The space we have vacated in our original warehouse will soon be converted into further offices and meeting rooms, to accomodate our growth and support the expansion of our sister company, Alliot Technologies LTD. This is proof that ProVu is ever expanding and growing stronger as we close off yet another historic year.
