9 Messages*
This handset can be used to send and receive text messages. A differentiation is made between urgent and normal messages which are signalled in different ways on the handset. Every message is stored in a list which can contain up to 10 entries. You can set the behavior of the handset for more than 10 mes- sages by means of the ”Message Memory: Overwrite” menu item. You can also receive and send messages during a con- nection.
The signalling of normal and urgent messages can be effected by means of different ringer melodies (refer to menu: Ringer Settings).
Messages cannot be sent or received if the handset is outside the range of the system or is in the charger whilst ”Silent charg- ing” is switched on.
If a message cannot be delivered, the sender always hears an error beep. If a message is received whilst you are making a menu setting, the menu is aborted and all entries which have not yet been saved are not stored. Furthermore, phone num- bers which have already been entered and the text of a mes- sage which you are currently writing are lost if you receive a message.
Urgent messages are messages which you must confirm. An activated key lock is temporarily deactivated when receiving such a message so that its receipt can be acknowledged. If you receive an urgent message, this is immediately signalled on the display.
If you use the ringer, you can hear the melody for urgent mes- sages. The ringer volume increases to the maximum during the signalling process. If you receive an urgent message during a call, you hear a repeated alert tone in the speech path.
Normal messages are messages which you don’t need to con- firm. The ”Normal Message Display” setting can be used to select whether or not a normal message is shown. When selected normal messages are immediately signalled on the display.
If you use the ringer, you hear the melody for normal messages once. If you receive a normal message during a call, then you hear a short alert tone in the speech path.
