Preparing the base station for use – Getting started wizard

A few settings are necessary before using your base station. The Getting started wizard

is designed to help you with this. It can be called up at any time using the display on

your base station (page 15) or using an added=feature S1 or SL1 handset (see handset

operating instructions). The following settings can be set one after the other.

◆ Date and time

◆ Show/hide answering machine 1… 3 (on SX353isdn)

◆ Find out/enter the MSN for your connection

◆ Set the device type for the connected device

◆ Set the receive MSN

◆ Set the send MSN

◆ Outside line code (when using a PABX)

Alternatively, you can make settings on your base station using a PC (see operating

instructions for PC software).

Operating instructions for the S1, SL1, C1 and C2 handsets can be found on the

enclosed CD. The updated instructions for your Gigaset are available on the Internet at

www.my-siemens.de/Kundenservice.

What is an MSN?

MSN = Multiple Subscriber Number. You can apply for up to ten different telephone

numbers for one multiple ISDN connection. An MSN is one of the phone numbers

assigned to you without an area code.

You telephone uses the MSN entirely as you require. The following differentiation is

made:

◆ Receive MSN: Phone numbers you may be called on. You can assign the receive

MSNs to specific internal users (terminals) (page 96). Incoming calls are only

forwarded to the terminals to which the relevant MSN has been assigned. Terminals

can be e.g. handsets or answering machines.

◆ Send MSN: Phone numbers that are identified to the person you are calling. The

network operator calculates charges based on the send MSN's. You can assign a

fixed send MSN to each internal user (page 96).

Internal users

Your base station is assigned the fixed internal number 10.

Possible internal users are:

◆ Handsets, to which you can assign the internal numbers 11 to 18.

◆ Analogue devices, such as an analogue telephone, fax machine or modem. The

internal number 21 is provided for an analogue device.

◆ A PC via the USB port on the base station, for which the internal number 40 is

provided.

◆ Bluetooth devices such as a Bluetooth-compatible GSM mobile phone, headset or

PC. A PC registered via Bluetooth is automatically assigned an internal number

between 51 and 53.

◆ Data modules (page 135), to which you can assign the internal numbers 41 to 48.
