Operating the answering machine
(on CX253isdn)
The Gigaset CX253isdn has three answering machines (AM1, AM2, AM3), which can be
used independently of each other. You can operate the answering machines either
directly via the base station, a registered handset or by remote control (internal or
external call to the answering machine, see page 70).
Answering machines are not assigned an MSN (factory default).
◆ AM1 answers all calls.
◆ Each answering machine can be set, operated and played back from each handset/
terminal.
One or more MSNs are assigned to each answering machine:
Each answering machine can only be set and played back using handsets/terminals with
the same receive MSN.
Exception: If a receive MSN is exclusively assigned to an answering machine, then this
answering machine can be used from all internal users.
The date and time of arrival of each message is logged if you have previously set this
function (page 84).
You can hide answering machines you do not wish to use, see page 75.
