Sub-addressing of text messages
Telstra’s fixed text messaging service allows you to send text messages to a specific
phone when there is more than one phone connected to a telephone line.This may be
useful when you want to direct a message to a specific household member for privacy
reasons.Each phone can be given a different terminal number (from 1-9), text messages
can be sent to an individual phone by simply adding an extra digit to the phone number
corresponding to the terminal number of the particular phone.For example, if a text
message is sent to a fixed line with an additional digit“1” added to the telephone number,
only a phone set up with terminal number“1” on that line would receive the message.
The default terminal number for your phone is“0” and your phone will automatically
receive all text messages sent unless they have an additional sub-address digit added.
Changing the terminal number
To change the terminal number or sub-address for sending and receiving text messages:
1. Press Display will show “TERMINAL ID 0”.
2. Enter the new terminal number (1 to 9).
3. Press to store the new number.
Two or more SMS phones on the same line
If you have more than one SMS phone on the same line the phones may not operate
properly when receiving text messages. To overcome this you should change the terminal
number(s) so that only one phone has a terminal number of 0.The phone with a terminal
number of 0 will receive all text messages sent to your default address.The other phone(s)
will only receive text message sent to their specific sub-address.All phones will be able to
send text messages.
