Remote activation

function is PIN-protected.
Remote check
Answering machine function. Listen to messages remotely, mostly together with
options like delete messages or change announcements.
Repeater
A repeater increases the range of a handset connected to a base station. The device
receives the radio signal from the base station and broadcasts it further.
Ring delay
For each internal party, you can specify how many rings take place before this party
hears the ring. This can also be set for each MSN phone number.
For example, your handset, in addition to the base telephone (which rings on the
first ring) could ring after three rings for the private phone number, and ring on the
first ring for the business phone number.

ence, or callback when the number is busy. See also "Comfort connection".
