End of Life Notice – Panasonic KX-TGP500

The Panasonic KX-TGP500 has now gone end of life and is no longer available to order. Both the KX-TPA50 handset and the KX-TGP550 DECT integrated desk phone are still available, but please note we have limited stocks remaining of these.

The KX-TGP500 has now been replaced by the more powerful KX-TGP600. And although priced very similarly to its predecessor, the TGP600 offers a range of new, ground breaking features, supporting up to 8 handsets and 8 concurrent calls, the KX-TGP600 is the ideal solution for both business and home use.

Pricing and stock information is available on ProSys.

How to: Panasonic Repeater Pairing

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.

So well done to Panasonic for making such an impact on their first foray in the SIP phone market.

ProVu have been the distributor for the phones in the UK for most of 2012 and have as usual, developed support for them in our phone provisioning and management systems.

Panasonic factory reset

To do a proper factory reset of a Panasonic SIP phone you need to have the phone in front of you.

There is a reset option in the web interface but this will only reset any settings that had been set in the web interface itself. Any settings that have been provisioned will persist.

On the phone:

  • Press the “setting” button to go into the settings menu

  • Dial: #136 on the keypad

  • A hidden menu will appear, select “Factory Reset”

  • Press up or down to choose “yes” and then Enter

  • Repeat the previous step for the “are you sure” prompt

  • The phone will now reboot itself

Once rebooted, it’ll be fully reset. Just be aware, if the phone has been provisioned it may well call home to the provisioning server and get some settings applied from that. You’ll have to speak to whoever does your provisioning for us (hopefully us!).

cheers,
Paul.
