Press and hold the RECORD button for three seconds or until the
RECORD light flashes. You will hear the audio program over the
Magic Messenger’s speaker. Adjust the volume control of the
audio source to obtain a comfortable level over the monitor
speaker (also sets the level heard on the telephone line).
Once you have set the volume, you can cue the audio program
by using the speaker. When you are ready to begin recording,
press the PLAY button on the Magic Messenger. The RECORD
light will light steady, and the unit will beep. Start the audio
program.
To stop recording, press the PLAY button on the Magic
Messenger. The unit will replay your announcement.
Note: Unplug the audio source following recording.
Activate Bypass/Answer Mode
Press the MODE button so that the BYPASS/ANSWER light
comes on, indicating the Magic Messenger is now ready to
answer phone calls.
The MODE button on the front panel is used to select "bypass" or
"answer" mode. When the Magic Messenger is set for bypass, an in-
coming call will ring through to your telephone directly as it would
normally operate. When it is set to answer, the Magic Messenger
answers the incoming call and plays the selected (day or night) an-
nouncement.
When the Magic Messenger is set to "answer" and the night message
is selected, the Magic Messenger will produce 4 short beeps and the
DAY/NIGHT light will flash briefly if no night announcement has been
recorded.
Select Day or Night Announcement
Select the day or night message by pressing the ANNOUNCE (or
MESSAGE) button. (You can also select the announcement via
remote control – see Remote Operation on page 13-.)
