Gigaset S450 IP –
More than just a telephone
Your phone lets you make calls both via
the fixed network and (cost effectively) via
the Internet (VoIP) without using a PC.
And your phone can do much more
besides:
u Press a button each time you make a
call to indicate whether you want to
make a call via the fixed network or via
the Internet (page 16). During a call,
the display color indicates whether
your call is being made via VoIP (blue)
or via the fixed network (orange).
u Register up to six handsets on your
base station. Your base station allows
you to use one handset to make a call
via the fixed network and another to
make a call via the Internet at the same
time.
u Configure the phone connection for
VoIP without a PC. Your phone's con-
nection assistant downloads general
data about your VoIP provider from the
Internet and guides you through enter-
ing your personal data (VoIP/SIP
account). This makes it easy for you to
start using VoIP (page 11).
u If necessary, make any further
VoIP settings on a PC. The phone has
a Web interface (Web configurator)
that can be accessed via your PC's
Web browser (page 26).
u Assign your own password (system
PIN) to protect your device and the
Web configurator from unauthorized
access (page 25).
u Use instant messaging on your hand-
set. Go online and see which of your
messenger contacts (buddies) are also
online. Chat with your buddies, send
and receive text messages, or phone
them (page 22).
u Use your phone to obtain information
about new e-mail messages in your
mailbox without a PC (page 21).
u Save up to 150 numbers and names in
your handset (page 19).
u Download your Outlook contacts from
a PC into your handset. Or back up the
handset directory on your PC.
u You can program the keys of your
phone with important phone numbers.
The phone number is then dialed by
simply pressing the respective key
(page 19).
u Keep your hands free while making
calls. Use the handsfree function on
your handset or use a convenient
headset (accessory, not included).
u Keep your phone completely up to
date. Find out about firmware
updates on the Internet and download
them into your phone.
u Use your handset as an alarm clock
(page 25).
