Registering Headsets
Each headset must be registered to a basestation before it can be used.
XT-1 headsets have a single serial number. This number is imprinted on the headset.
G5 headsets have 2 serial numbers - one for the G5 Control Pod and the other for the G5 Carrier. The G5 Control
Pod serial number is the primary tracking number for the G5 headset and this is the serial number that gets registered
on the basestation. Once registered, it should not need to be registered again unless it is intentionally removed.
Add Headsets
The procedure below applies to both G5 and XT-1 headsets. Each headset has a unique serial number. This number
is broadcast to the basestation whenever the headset signs on.
