functions.

messages (SMS) with your telephone.

Configuring the telephone connection

If you have an analogue telephone connection, please check whether you can
access the "Call number transfer" and "Call number display" (CLIP, incoming and
outgoing) functions. To do so, please enquire of your network operator whether
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.

Short messages (SMS)

receive fixed network SMS. In Germany, for example, you can reach Deutsche
Telekom message center nationally by calling "0193010". Enter this number under
"SMS center".

The registration process varies between network operators. Ask your telephone
network provider how to do this.

the following content:

"ANMELD" to the target call number 8888

You will then receive a confirmation message from Deutsche Telekom SMS service.
Now you can be sure that you can send and receive SMS using your telephone.

You can deactivate receiving SMS messages by sending "ABMELD" to target call
number 8888. Future SMS that are sent to your call number are then read as voice
messages.
