Short messages (SMS)
The SMS service allows you to send or receive SMS messages to other terminals.
The messages are not transferred directly to the other terminal but instead are sent
to your network operator's message center. The message can contain up to 160
characters. You can save up to 20 messages in the inbox. To use the SMS it is es-
sential that there is support for transferring the call number (CLIP). Then all you
have to do is register with your message center and away you go.
You can also send your short message to a subscriber that does not have an SMS-
enabled device. The short message is then read out loud as a voice message.
Please refer to your network operator's information material for this and other func-
tions.
Please observe the following points so that you can send and receive short mes-
sages (SMS) with your Voicemail Center 461.2:
Configuring the telephone connection
Analogue telephone connection
If you have an analogue telephone connection, please check whether you can ac-
cess the "Call number transfer" and "Call number display" (CLIP, incoming and out-
going) functions. To do so, please ask your network operator if these features are
available for your connection.
ISDN connection
If you have an ISDN connection check that call number display (CLIP), is activated
and that call number transfer (CLIR) is not suppressed in your PABX.
