This is a short guide on how to pair up a Panasonic repeater (KX-A405) to a Panasonic DECT base. This guide assumes that you have plugged in your DECT base and registered the handset to it – if you have not yet done this please do so now, consult the user manual for the base if you require help.
The base must be on firmware 22.58 or greater. Older firmwares do NOT include repeater functionality
Step 1: DO NOT PLUG IN THE REPEATER YET.
In the handset menu select IP service (toolbox icon). Select Call Features then Repeater Mode. Set this setting to ON.
Step 2:
Press and hold the ALL button on the base for 4 seconds (or until the status light blinks red). On the TGP500 this button is on the side, on the TGP550 it is on the front.
Step 3:
Once the status light is blinking red, you can now plug in the repeater. Make sure that the repeater is within range of the base (around 1 metre away is best) – you can reposition the repeater to its final location once it is paired.
The repeater should now automatically pair with the base. Once both of the LEDs are lit green the process is complete. Please note this may take a few seconds.
** If the LEDs do not light green – consult Page 10 of this manual to diagnose the problem.**
That’s it! The repeater is now paired to the base. You can now press the ALL button once to take the base out of registration mode.
If you are one of our customer’s and are having trouble with this please send an email to support@provu.co.uk or call us on 01484840048 and a member of the technical team will be able to help.
Sangoma has launched a new web tool for ITSPs that allows for quick and easy provisioning of Vega gateways. The tool allows ITSPs to generate configuration files for any Vega gateway without having to manually configure each setting on the web GUI. SNAP walks through a series of screens and spits out a final configuration file which can be uploaded to the Vega.
To benefit from the tool, the ITSP will have to provide a test account and general install scenario such as whether the box will be on DHCP or static IP address, what codec types to use, etc. Sangoma will then test those scenarios with provided test account and make the final template available for users to download. There is no limit on the number of templates. Multiple templates can be created for the same product according to the scenario.
Have a look at the link below to get a general idea of how it works.

ProVu are pleased to announce the arrival of the new low cost Yealink T20E IP phone.
We believe this model is one of the most competitively priced quality IP phones available. It has all the same functionality of the popular T20P model including the same Auto Provisioning engine. However, as there is no POE support we are able to bring it to market at an even lower price (includes a UK PSU).
The T20E is the ideal phone for those opportunities where the budget is really tight and is perfect for call centres where the key is to supply a low cost robust and reliable phone.
