This guide leads you through the installation of W-AIR Base and W-AIR Base Outdoor and setting up a W-AIR DECT Network in which the bases sync over the air. Updated: February 2022 Permalink: https://wildix.atlassian.net/wiki/x/SwrOAQ |

W-AIR Base is End Of Life. |

*Note: by default W-AIR system supports up to 20 devices, to increase the number to 30 devices, use Custom Provisioning parameter, described in this document: https://confluence.wildix.com/x/KQg8AQProvisioning Custom Settings. |
Warning |

** Enabling PTT feature (Push-to-talk) on W-AIR handsets reduces the number of available channels on each base station to 6. |
...
For detailed instructions, refer to Provisioning of Wildix devices - Admin Guide.
Go to menu Devices of the WMS, click +Add and provision the gateway. Provisioned base stations appear in the table of Devices.
...
- Go to the WMS menu Devices → W-AIR Networks → click Add
- Enter the name Name for your W-AIR Network
Select the gateways from the list on the left and move them to the list on the right
Warning Limitation: it is impossible to register a W-AIR Headset if the code of W-AIR network is different from "0000" (default code). Workaround: temporarily change the code to default one ("0000") , register and assign the Headset(s), and then change it back to custom one.
Click “Save”
Note The first base becomes the Main base of the network (M). The gateways make radio sync over the air with each other automatically to extend the work range if possible.
- Go back to the Devices Menu, select your base/bases and press “Configure/ Sync device” button

For CLOUD PBXs, you need to power off the base station and then power it on again (reboot the base station) to apply the new parameters! |
Step 3. Register a W-AIR Handset
...
Go to WMS -> Devices -> W-AIR devices
Choose the handset and click Assign to user
Enter user extension and click Save
...
The sync chain must always overlap with other Base stations in order to latch each other in sync.
Primary base is the one that performs the sync.
A maximum of 24 sync levels (Including the primary base) can be used in a deployment.
Secondary base stations or repeaters are connected to the Primary base through the synchronisation chain
If one of the base or repeater units in the sync chain is broken or not working, then the units that follow the non-working device are cut off from the sync chain, and sync can be lost. In this case, handover between the two clusters is not possible.
...
A maximum of 250 base stations can be deployed in one setup (depending on the network requirement not all base stations should be chained).
A maximum of 24 sync levels can be used in any deployment.
Depending on the system setup, it is recommended to place the Primary base station in the middle of the building and to assign numbers/addresses, radio ID (RPN), etc. to each base station or repeater for easy identification.
Continuous line: Shows the primary sync paths, with the relevant bases chained in the multicell network.
Dotted line: Alternative sync paths.
...
- Enter the local IP address of the Primary Base Station into the field “Primary Base IP” (Devices -> W-AIR Networks -> "Edit Network")
- Connect all the base stations and add them to the WMS Network Server PBX
- Set as DNS server for each base station (in Devices -> “Edit” device) the PBX to which the base station must be connected
- Set as DNS name “auto“auto.wildixin.com” com” in the field “SIP Proxy” (Devices -> W-AIR Networks -> “Edit” Network) to have all phones connected to the correct PBX (this is possible thanks to point 3)
