5.32.1 Configure the Handset for Message Templates
To activate the message template function in the handset so that a user can decline a call
with a predefined message, perform the following steps using the PDM/Device Manager:
1 Open the "Edit parameters" dialog
2 Select Settings > Answering
3 Locate the parameter "Reject with a message template" and set the value to "On".
5.32.2 Create Message Template Texts
A handset can be configured with up to five predefined messages. A message cannot
exceed 50 characters. To create a message, performing the following steps in the PDM/
Device Manager:
1 Open the "Edit parameters" dialog
2 Select Settings >Messaging > Templates > Template <n> where n refers to the five
message templates numbered 1 to 5.

4 Position the cursor in Value column and click the mouse button. An editable text field
is opened.
5 Type a message of maximum 50 characters in the text field.

NOTE: If a system uses a character set other than UTF-8 for SMS, care must be taken to
ensure that the characters entered into the message strings are compatible with the
character set used by the system. Entering characters that cannot be encoded by the
system may cause a type conversion error, the failure of the message to arrive at the
intended recipient, and a "Message failed" popup being displayed in the sender handset.
