3. Navigate to **Settings** > **Connectivity** > **Register**.
4. Select the first empty slot.
5. Enter access/PIN code (The code will either be '0000' or the Pairing PIN listed under the User's Voice Basic Settings in Admin Console).
6. Press **Ok** and the handset should register.
7. Repeat steps 2-3 until all handsets are registered.
8. **Press and hold** the button at the top of the **B2 Base** until it stops blinking and is solid green.
9. To double-check that the handset is registered, you can press and immediately release the B2 Base button, and that will start paging all registered handsets.

### Alternative steps to pair the handset to the base:

1. Factory reset Base.
  1. Hold the push button for 20 seconds until the light turns solid red.
2. Factory reset handset.
  1. Deregister the handset.
  2. Initiate a factory reset.
    1. Press 3 lines.
    2. Select Settings.
    3. Select Reset Settings
      - Handset may ask for a pin.
        - Default PIN: 0000.
3. The base will go through the light cycles, and the handset will be in easy registration.
4. Once the base stabilizes, the handset will automatically register.

## Known Limitations

- Maximum of five concurrent calls when G722 codec is used on all calls.
- Maximum of four concurrent calls when G729a codec is used on all calls.
- When G722 codec is enabled on the base, even if all calls negotiate to G711 codec, the maximum number of calls is nine.
- SRTP cannot be enabled on this device in Admin Console. If this feature is required, create a case for 8x8 Support to enable it.
- Poly does not yet support SIP Publishes on Rove devices, so no quality metrics will be available in Analytics for 8x8 Work.
