silently by the telephone answering machine.
The user gives out a 2 digit code (user
definable) to callers that they want to hear from.

When a VIP caller enters the VIP code during
the outgoing message playback or the incoming
message record period a distinctive audible alert
is given to inform the user locally that a ‘VIP’ is
trying to get through.

The default setting is 

OFF
