Companion set registration
To use Companion portable telephones, you must first install radio base stations to transmit and
receive radio signals to and from the portable telephones. See “Install a companion base station”
on page 261.
You use a different method to install portable telephones than desktop telephones. There are no
direct connections between the portable telephones and the system. Do the following:
• Install the batteries and battery charging units for each portable, using the instructions that
come with the portable.
• Enter the software keys for Companion in the Business Communications Manager Unified
Manager under Software keys
• Register every Companion portable for use with the system.
