12.3.1.4 Creating DECT handsets
* 
As of SwyxWare V13.30, a certified SIP end device (desk phone or DECT) can only be assigned to a user with a system telephone license.
 
At least one DECT system and one base station must already have been created.
* 
You can also assign the handset to a user at a later time, see Edit DECT handsets.
Unassigned handsets cannot be used.
 
* 
Make sure that the SIP credentials are entered for the desired users:
User | <Username> | SIP

Have the IPEI number of the DECT handset ready. The IPEI number can be found on the handset packaging.
To display the IPEI number on the handset, dial *#06#

As an alternative to creating handset objects manually, you can import a .CSV file containing the IPEI numbers:
* 
Enter the following data separated by semicolons:
- The IPEI number of the handset,
the user name to which the handset is to be assigned, if applicable (optional),
- the name of the DECT system to which the handset is to be assigned, if applicable (optional).
- The entries must be one below the other.
e.g.
00012 0000135 9
00012 0000136 9;user_1
00012 0000136 9;user_1
00012 0000138 9;user_2;DECT_System01
 
* 
The .CSV file may contain a maximum of 100 entries.
 
1 Select Terminals | DECT.
2 Select the tab Assigned handsets or Unassigned handsets.
3 Click on Import DECT handsets.
*The configuration wizard appears Import DECT handsets.
4 Click on Select file and select the prepared .CSV file from your file system.
* 
Click the cross icon to remove the file from the selection.
 
5 Click on Upload.
6 If necessary, select the users to which the handsets are to be assigned.
7 Check if all entries have been imported.
In case of failed imports, you can adjust the erroneous lines in the .CSV file or manually create the corresponding handsets one by one in Swyx Control Center.
8 Click on Finish.
*The handsets have been registered in the system according to the import result and appear in the list Assigned handsets or Unassigned handsets.
