Preparing the base station for use – Getting started wizard
A few settings are necessary before using your base station. The Getting started wizard
is designed to help you with this. It can be called up at any time using the display on
your base station (page 14) or using an added=feature S1 or SL1 handset (see handset
operating instructions). The following settings can be set one after the other.
◆
Date and time
◆
Show/hide answering machine 1… 3 (on CX253isdn)
◆
Find out/enter the MSN for your connection
◆
Set the device type for the connected device
◆
Set the receive MSN
◆
Set the send MSN
◆
Outside line code (when using a PABX)
Alternatively, you can make settings on your base station using a PC (see operating
instructions for PC software).
Operating instructions for the S1, SL1, C1 and C2 handsets can be found on the
enclosed CD. The updated instructions for your Gigaset are available on the Internet at
www.my-siemens.de/Kundenservice.
What is an MSN?
MSN = Multiple Subscriber Number. You can apply for up to ten different telephone
numbers for one multiple ISDN connection. An MSN is one of the phone numbers
assigned to you
without an area code
.
You telephone uses the MSN entirely as you require. The following differentiation is
made:
◆
Receive MSN:
Phone numbers you may be called on. You can assign the receive
MSNs to specific internal users (terminals) (page 95). Incoming calls are only
forwarded to the terminals to which the relevant MSN has been assigned. Terminals
can be e.g. handsets or answering machines.
◆
Send MSN:
Phone numbers that are identified to the person you are calling. The
network operator calculates charges based on the send MSN's. You can assign a
fixed send MSN to each internal user (page 95).
Internal users
Your
base station
is assigned the fixed internal number 10.
Possible internal users are:
◆
Handsets
, to which you can assign the internal numbers 11 to 16.
◆
Data modules
(page 123), to which you can assign the internal numbers 41 to 48.
◆
The integrated
answering machines
(on CX253isdn), which are assigned the
internal phone numbers 91 to 93.
