Receiving SMS
It is possible to set up one extension (one port) for an external line to receive
SMS messages. A terminal unit which supports SMS can then be operated at
this port in order to receive incoming SMS messages.
For each external line an individual SMS terminal device can be defined. It is
necessary to configure external line access and external line signalling for SMS
communication on this particular port. Deactivate call waiting signalling if there
is only one terminal unit with SMS functionality for both external lines. If you do
not deactivate the signalling you will lose SMS messages coming in on the
other line while the SMS terminal device is busy.
Defining the SMS port
Programming can be carried out via telephone 21 according to the table below.
In the factory default settings there is no SMS port defined.
