Gigaset SX810 ISDN – More than just a telephone
Gigaset SX810 ISDN – More than just a telephone
Your ISDN connection offers you two telephone lines simultaneously. Your telephone sets new standards for the way you communicate at home. The
configuration and user interface of the cordless phone are excellent, providing you with first-class voice quality in handsfree mode, while the various ports (Bluetooth, USB) offer you enormous flexibility.
The large TFT display, user-friendly keypad and clearly laid out menu are very sim­ple to use.
Your phone can do a whole lot more: u Use your Gigaset as a PABX and register up to six handsets. Assign each handset
its own phone number (MSN).
u It is easy to configure your Gigaset thanks to the wizards: these determine the
MSNs for your ISDN connection (provider-specific) and assist you with assigning send and receive MSNs to the handsets (¢ page 16).
u You can use Bluetooth™ for wireless communication with other devices
(e.g. headsets) that also use this technology.
u You can synchronise your directories on your telephone, mobile phone and PC
via Bluetooth (¢ page 87).
u You can save appointments (¢ page 58) and anniversaries, e.g., birthdays
(¢ page 44), in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.
u You can designate important people as VIPs to identify important calls from the
ringtone (¢ page 41).
u You can assign a picture to entries in the directory – in future, the picture will
appear every time you receive a call from this number (¢ page 41).
u If you do not want to take calls where the caller has withheld their number, just
set your handset to only ring if Calling Line Identification has not been withheld (¢ page 71).
u If you do not wish to be disturbed, you can simply set up a time control so that
your phone will only ring when it is convenient (¢ page 71). VIP calls are still put through.
u You can assign important numbers to the number keys on your phone.
The number is then dialled by simply pressing a key (¢ page 67).
u Adapt your Gigaset to suit your handsfree requirements (¢ page 70) and adjust
the brightness of your keypad to suit you (¢ page 69).
u View your personal pictures as a screensaver slide show (¢ page 68). u Set the display to the large font to increase legibility in particularly important
screens e.g., the directory and lists (¢ page 69).
u Gigaset Green Home – Be environmentally aware when using your phone.

Following safety precautions

Following safety precautions
Warning
Be sure to read this user guide and the safety precautions before using your telephone. Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your
children.
Use only the power adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base.
$
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification provided on page 85, as this could otherwise result in significant health risks and personal injury.
Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of the tech­nical conditions in your particular environment, e.g., doctor's surgery. If you use a medical device (e.g., a pacemaker), please contact the device manufac­turer. They will be able to advise you regarding the susceptibility of the device to external sources of high frequency energy. Please refer to the "Appendix" chapter for the specifications of this Gigaset product.
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when handsfree mode is activated. Otherwise, you risk serious and permanent damage to your hear­ing.
Your Gigaset is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on the market. However, perfect function with all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming or whistling noise in hearing aids or cause them to overload. If you require assistance, please contact your hearing aid supplier.
Do not install the base or charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The base and charger are not splashproof (¢ page 84).
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g., paint shops).
If you give your phone to a third party, make sure you also give them the user guide.
ƒ
Remove faulty bases from use or have them repaired by our Service team, as they could interfere with other wireless services.
Please note
u Not all of the functions described in this user guide are available in all countries. u The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. It is also not possible to trans-
mit emergency calls.

Installing the base

The base is designed for use in closed, dry rooms with a temperature range of +5°C to +45°C.
¤ Set up the base at a central point in the building on a level, non-slip surface or
mount the base on the wall (¢ page 91).
Please note
Pay attention to the range of the base. This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m inside build­ings. The range is reduced when Eco Mode is activated (¢ page 57).
The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to the multitude of different varnishes and polishes used on today's furnishings, the occurrence of marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
Please note:
u Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or
other electrical devices.
u Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.

Connecting the base

First steps
¤ First, connect the
power adapter 2.
¤ Then connect the
telephone jack 1 and insert the cables into the cable ducts.

Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover

Warning
Use only rechargeable batteries (¢ page 85) recommended by Gigaset Com­munications GmbH i.e., never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery, as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury. For example, the outer casing of the batteries could be damaged or the batteries could explode. The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recommended type.
¤ Insert the batteries with
the polarity in the correct direction. The polarity is indicated in/on the battery com­partment.
¤ First, align the protrusions
on the side of the battery cover with the notches on the inside of the casing.
¤ Then press the cover until
it clicks into place.
o open the battery cover, for instance to replace the batter­ies, insert a coin into the cavity on the left-hand side of the cas­ing, then pull the battery cover in an upward direction.
10
¤ Insert the plastic cover provided for the
headset socket to ensure optimum sound in speaker mode.

Attaching the belt clip

The handset has notches on each side to attach the belt clip. ¤ To at tach – press the belt clip
onto the back of the handset so that the protrusions on the belt clip engage with the notches.
¤ To re move – press the centre of
the belt clip firmly with your right thumb, push the fingernail of your left index finger up between the clip and the housing and pull the clip in an upward direction.

Please note
The handset must only be placed in the designated Gigaset S810 base or charg­ing cradle.
¤ After charging, remove the handset from the base and only replace it when the
batteries are fully discharged.
12
Please note
u Each handset is registered with the base at the factory. You do not need to
register the handset again. If you wish to use your handset with a different base or use additional handsets with your base, you have to register the handset manually ¢ page 60.
u After the first battery charge and discharge, you may replace your handset
in its base after every call.
u Always repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert them.

Connection assistant

The connection assistant will start automatically as soon as the ISDN wizard is complete. You can use the connection assistant to assign the previously configured numbers to internal parties as send and receive connections, if necessary.
u Receive connections are numbers (MSNs) on which you can be called. You can
assign the MSNs for internal parties as the receive connection. Incoming calls are only forwarded to the internal parties to which the relevant receive connection has been assigned.
u Send connections are the numbers (MSNs) that are sent to the called party. The
network provider calculates charges based on the send connections. You can assign a fixed MSN as a send connection to each internal party.
u Every MSN can be both a send and receive connection. You can assign each MSN
to multiple handsets.
After registration/getting started, the handsets are assigned all MSNs as receive connections. The base number (usually MSN1) is assigned to the devices as a send connection.

– If you wish to change the assignment to a handset, you need to deregister the L410 on
the base and then register it again.
– Please refer to the Gigaset L410 user guide for information regarding the "three-way
telephone (conference call)" function. It is only possible to join a call on the assigned handset.
– If you deregister a handset to which the L410 was assigned, the L410 continues to
remain registered on the base.
