How can I reboot my PAR G5 base station?
Rebooting your PAR G5 base station is a straightforward process, much like rebooting a home router. Here are two simple methods:
Method 1: Hardware Reboot
- Locate the two thumbscrews on the bottom of the front panel.
- Remove the cover by unscrewing these thumbscrews.
- Once the cover is off, unplug the power cable from the base station.
- Leave it unplugged for about 30 seconds to ensure a complete power cycle.
- Plug the power cable back in.
- Replace the cover and secure it with the thumbscrews.
- Your base station has now been rebooted.
Method 2: Software Reboot
- Enter the configuration mode. For G5, select "System Menu."
- From the menu options, choose "17 Reboot System."
- Look for "Power Cycle Complete System" and change its value to "Yes."
- Confirm your selection.
Using either method will effectively reboot your PAR G5 base station, resolving minor issues and ensuring smooth operation.
Adding Headsets to a PAR G5 Base Station
Each headset is assigned a unique identification number, imprinted on the device and broadcast to the base station whenever it's powered on.
Important Note: A single headset should not be registered to more than one base station at any given site, regardless of whether the base stations are interconnected. Ensure that you remove the headset from its existing base station before adding it to a different one.
Here's a quick guide on how to register a headset:
- Access Configuration Mode: For G5, go to the "System Menu."
- Headset Registration: Select "04 Registration" followed by "1 Add New Headsets."
- Power On: If using a G5 headset, simply insert the battery to automatically power it on.
- Confirmation: Wait for up to two minutes until you see "Headset xxxxxxx Has Been Registered!" displayed at the bottom of the screen.
- Adding More Headsets: Repeat step 3 for any additional headsets you wish to register.
- Completion: Press "Mode" when you've finished the registration process.
By following these steps, you can easily add headsets to your PAR G5 base station, ensuring seamless communication within your establishment.
