Set the Base Station Country
You must set the country and time for your base station. The base station uses the time information to control
the syncronization of the multicell or dualcell system configuration. You don't require this information for
the 110 Single-Cell Base Station in single cell. The handsets display the system time.
Note The base station is preprogrammed for the specific DECT frequency range for your location. The country
information on this page is only used to identify the date and time zone of the system.
You can either use a network time server or set the time to the time on your PC. However, if you set up a
dualcell or multicell system, you must use a network time server. During TLS authentication, this time is used
for certificate time validation. If the base station doesn't receive the time from the server or the time on your
PC, the certificate time validation is ignored.
If you set or change the country or time, you must reboot your base stations. A single base station can take
up to 1 minute and multiple base stations in a system can take several minutes to reboot.
