My UNIDEN 6.0 is being replaced, if I unplug the unit base will I lose my saved messages?

The directions to set the date and time on the Uniden EXS9500 are shown in the manual starting on page 21. Press and hold the Clock button (the second button from the left below the answering system buttons) on the base until you hear a beep. Use the Skip/Repeat buttons (the two end buttons of the answering system buttons) to select the current day of the week. The LCD with show 0 through 6 and the voice prompt will list the day of the week. Press Clock when the correct day of the week is announced. Use the Skip/Repeat buttons to select the current hour (1-12). Press Clock to set the hour. Use the Skip/Repeat buttons to select the current minutes and press Clock to save the setting. Use the Skip/Repeat buttons to select AM/PM and press Clock to save the current time and exit the clock setting menu.

ManualsLib has the directions starting here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/334436/Uniden-Exs9500.html?page=21#manual .

I hope this helps.

To hear your messages, press PLAY on the base.
To mute, press CLEAR on the base.

See pages 22 and 6 of the manual: Owners Manual User Guide for Uniden Dect2188 3 Dect 6 0 Cord cordless...

Which specific Uniden DECT 6.0 phone do you have? There are a number of them. Uniden has the manuals available here: http://www.uniden.com/bin/venda?ex=co_disp-view&bsref=uniden&scat=dectphones_mnl . Phones are listed in alphabetical and numerical order.

If the answering system is off, turn it on before proceeding to the following steps.

If you are at home, there are usually two methods to access the answering system. Some Uniden phones let you set the outgoing message from the base or the handset. Others will only let you set the message from the handset. (Calling in remotely is more complicated.)

To access the answering system menu from a handset, on some models, push the Mute/Messages button. Then let your current message play or press 5 to stop the recorded announcement. Then either use the up/down arrows to select Record New Greeting (or the number that matches the sub-menu item). It's number 8 on the DECT1480. Then wait for the prompt (tone or "Record Greeting") and then speak into the handset clearly. Press 8 to stop recording and press End to save the message. Press 6 to select the outgoing greeting if a default greeting is available.

On other Uniden DECT phones, press Menu and go to Ans Setup. Then choose the line for the greeting (if it's a multi-line phone) and then select Record Greeting. Press Start, wait for the prompt and then press Stop when done. Press Stop again to save the message. If there is an optional pre-recorded greeting, use the Greeting Option submenu to select the greeting to play. (This applies to the DECT4086.)

From the base, you'll do something similar. However, you should stay about 9" from the microphone while recording. Messages can be between 30 seconds and 3 minutes 30 seconds for most systems.

I hope this helps.

(recording a new greeting during a remote call can be done but consult the manual for details.)

Welcome to FixYa.

Reset the units/set up by doing the following:

• Turn OFF all the HANDSETS.
• Remove the batteries of the HANDSETS.
• Unplug the power source of the BASE.
• Unplug the phone line of the BASE.
• Let it stay that way for 30 mins.
• Insert the battery again of the HANDSETS, make sure it is charged properly.
• Plug back the power source of the BASE.
• Plug back the phone line to the BASE.

Keep me posted.

Hello.

From FixYa Support:

- unplug base unit for 15 seconds
- press "PROGRAM" button on handset
- from menu, select "HANDSET SETUP"
- from menu, select "REGISTRATION"
- handset display will prompt you to press and hold PAGE button on base unit for 5 seconds, then press "PROGRAM" button on handset

Perform steps for each handset. You may need to plug base unit and unplug for each handset.

Hope this helps.

This probably applies to your model:-

From the expansion handpiece - while the message is playing - hit the 4 button - or 4:delete button.

From the base unit - while the message is playing - hit "delete".

You can only delete all messages at once from the base unit.

I had this exact same problem. I had to reset all three handsets. Select menu, system reset, replacing base, then follow directions. This worked for one unit but the other ones I had to buy new batteries eventhough they showed fully charged. Good Luck

The brillian people at Uniden don't feel it necessary to provide this type information in their manuals. You have to trial and error to find it, but what can you do. All you have to do to reset the base unit itself is to unplug the power, then while holding down the delete key, plug it back in. Hold the delete button down until you hear a beep, which indicates it has reset. Now you can readd handsets and they will start at 1.

Unplug the unit again and press the intercom/find handset button while you re-connect the adaptor.  Then dock the phone unit once again and it will re-register.

On the Base Station select HS Registration then on the Handset hold # for 2 sec
