Operating the base station answering machine
You can operate the answering machine that is integrated in the base station
via the handset or via remote operation (other phone/mobile phone). You can
record your own announcement message or advisory message via the handset.
Receive numbers
You can use your phone's Web configurator to set which of your phone num-
bers your answering machine is to accept as soon as it is switched on
). You can assign your phone any number of phone numbers as
receive numbers (VoIP, fixed line network, Gigaset.net).
All calls accepted by the answering machine are stored in sequence in the
answering machine independently of the receive number and displayed in the
same answering machine list.
Any registered handset to which at least one receive number from the answer-
ing machine has been assigned as a send or receive number can access the
answering machine list (
After a new phone number is configured (a new VoIP account), it is first
assigned to the answering machine as a receive number.
Parallel calls
If a caller is connected to the answering machine and a second call for the
answering machine comes in on a different line (fixed line network or VoIP),
the second caller hears the ringing tone. The answering machine will answer
the second call if:
u
the connection with the first caller has ended and
the ring delay period for the answering machine to answer a call
) has expired.
Announce only/answer and record mode
You can use the answering machine in two different modes.
u
In
Ans. & Record
mode, the caller hears the announcement and can then
leave a message.
u
In
Announce Only
mode, the caller hears your announcement but cannot
leave a message.
Please note
Connections to the answering machine (internal and external) are not estab-
lished using broadband.
