Introduction
This Section applies only if you have
acquired a Ascom Avena 122/Ascom
Avena 122 plus with an integrated an-
swering machine.
The total recording time is approx. 22 min-
utes. Your recorded greeting messages and
the incoming recorded messages are stored
digitally. The advantages of digital voice
memory are:
– no maintenance required
– consistent recording quality
(no wear and tear)
– quick access to recorded messages
The answering machine can be operated
either from the base station, the handset
or by remote access. If the answering ma-
chine is operated from the handset, the
display indicates the number of messages
stored with their date and time.
Other answering machine functions in-
clude:
– Two different operating modes:
• Answer only
• Record message
– The number of rings after which the
answering machine switches itself on
can be set between 1 and 9 rings or
"automatic" (call charge saving
function, see page 42).
– Enable or disable operation of the
answering machine using remote
access.
– Activate or deactivate message
monitoring.
– Adjustable recording time
– Adjustable message length: 1 minute,
2 minutes, 3 minutes or unlimited
Note:
Your answering machine cannot work if there
is a power failure; however, the messages left
and the greeting messages are saved.
