Digital Answering Machine with
Advanced Message Management

PLUG

 the TA-111’s telephone

cord into a telephone wall jack.

CONNECT 

the AC Adapter Plug into the AC

Adapter Outlet on the back of the TA-111.

LOOP

 the cord through the AC Adapter Cord

Holder to prevent accidental disconnection.

NOTE:

ν

Accidental disconnection of the AC Adapter from the back
of the unit will erase all recorded messages and greetings.

PLUG 

the AC Adapter into an

electrical wall outlet. A beep will
be heard and the LEDs will
change from solid to flashing.
Once the LEDs start flashing, you
may record your greeting.

CONNECT 

the cord from your

telephone to the TA-111’s outlet labeled
“TO TELEPHONE.”

INSTALL

 a 9 volt (9V) battery to

protect your greeting, incoming
messages and time/day setting during
power failure. During a power failure,
this information is saved until the
battery is depleted.

Open for

easy operating guide!

ALL DIGITAL RECORDING

Greetings and incoming messages are recorded
on a digital chip, eliminating mechanical
components and increasing reliability. The
TA-111 allows 10 minutes of combined recording
time for greetings, incoming messages and
recorded memos.

Your digital answering machine provides you
with the following advantages:
1. Reliability. There are no moving parts to

break.  The use of electronic components
effectively increases the life of your machine.

2. Operational Ease. There is no tape to rewind

or entangle. You no longer have to worry
about replacing worn or damaged parts.

NOTE:

ννννν

The audio quality of the digitally recorded greeting
and incoming messages may be subtly different than
those recorded on microcassette.

ADVANCED MESSAGE
MANAGEMENT

Allows you to manage your messages more
effectively and efficiently. Digital technology
provides you with the following user
conveniences:

ννννν

Selective Save & Erase:  Save and erase
specific messages at the machine or during
remote operation for added convenience and
flexibility.

ννννν

Skip & Repeat:  During playback of
messages, skip and repeat messages for
greater playback control at the machine or
remotely.

ννννν

Instant Access

TM

 to Messages:  All messages

are recorded digitally and therefore can be
accessed instantly for more efficient playback
than tape based units.

VOICE TIME/DAY STAMP

No more guess-work to determine the time and
day that your messages were recorded. Your
TA-111 will digitally stamp each message with
this information.

AUTOMATIC SAVE

The TA-111 will automatically save messages
after playback at the machine or during remote
operation.

AUTO EXTENSION DISCONNECT

You can answer a call from any extension phone
connected to the same line as the TA-111. Pick
up any extension phone after the TA-111 has
answered the call and the unit will automatically
stop playing your greeting or recording an
incoming message. If it does not stop, briefly
press and release the 

HOOK-SWITCH

 on

the extension phone.

GREETING BYPASS

Frequent callers can skip your greeting when
they call to leave a message.  Instruct them to

press 

#

 on their touchtone keypad any time after

the TA-111 answers their call.

SHORT BURST/CELLULAR
COMPATIBLE

The TA-111 is remote accessible from most
telephones, pay phones and cellular phones.

VOLUME CONTROL

There are eight volume levels.  Once you have
reached the minimum or maximum level, three
beeps will be heard.

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR

The LO BATT INDICATOR lights when the battery
needs to be replaced or when no battery is
installed.  Once the LO BATT INDICATOR lights,
change your battery immediately to avoid
loosing your time/day stamp and recorded
messages during a power failure.

IMP0RTANT FEATURES

INSTALLING

A 9V BATTERY

Turn the TA-111 over and remove the
battery cover.

Install a 9V alkaline battery. Make sure
the battery is connected correctly.

Replace the cover.

TWO-LINE

INSTALLATION

Two-line installations may require a two-line
T-Adapter for your machine to operate
correctly. The T-Adapter allows you to connect
your machine to Line 1 or Line 2. The TA-111
will only answer one line at a time.

MULTI-LINE

INSTALLATION

Installations with more than two lines, such as
a business phone system, may require a
separate RJ11 jack for answering machines.
Please contact your telephone equipment
provider for additional information.
You can use the TA-111 as an extension phone
on a business phone system, but some
systems will require that you install an A+A1
adapter to light the IN-USE INDICATOR on the
receptionist’s console. Please contact your
telephone equipment provider for additional
information.

CLEANING

THE TA-111

CAUTION:  Disconnect the TA-111 from the
power outlet before cleaning.
Clean the plastic cabinet with a clean soft cloth
only. Do not use excess water or cleaning liquid
of any kind.

Recorded messages are cut off.

The TA-111 is designed to disconnect from the line after a caller stops talking. Calls may be cut
off if a 5 second pause is detected, if the caller does not speak loud enough or if a message is
less than two seconds.

The TA-111 does not respond when you enter your remote access code while the greeting is
playing.

Try re-entering the correct code after the beep.  Press and hold each access code key for two
seconds.

Between messages there is an operator recording or a beep and dial tone.

The caller has hung up without leaving a message. A shorter greeting will reduce the frequency
of these recordings.

You have more than one telephone number and are experiencing difficulty.

See MULTI-LINE INSTALLATION.
There is no sound during playback.

Check and adjust the 

VOLUME CONTROL

.

The unit does not automatically stop playing the greeting or recording a message when an
extension phone is picked up.

Briefly press and release the 

HOOK-SWITCH 

on the extension phone.

The unit is not responding when keys are pressed.

The TA-111 has approximately a 5 second initialization process. Once the unit is plugged in, the
unit requires 5 seconds to run its internal diagnostic tests. The MESSAGE INDICATOR will flash
when the unit is ready for operation.

After recording a new greeting from remote operation, the unit does not respond.

After you record your new greeting, you must press 

3 

again on your keypad to end the recording.

If 

3 

is not pressed, the unit will suspend remote operation access for 13 minutes.  You will be

able to retrieve your messages after 13 minutes.

A greeting was recorded but the default greeting plays.

Check the length of the recorded greeting. In order for the TA-111 to accept a greeting, it must be
at least two seconds in length or the unit will default to the pre-recorded greeting.

After several attempts the TA-111 will not operate properly.

To reset the TA-111, unplug the 

AC ADAPTER PLUG

 from the back of the TA-111 for 10 seconds

and remove the battery (if one is installed). The greeting, incoming messages and time/day stamp
will be lost.  Re-record the greeting and set the time and day.

If this action does not fix the problem, call the Casio PhoneMate Helpline. Casio PhoneMate’s
Helpline staff can often resolve problems or recommend repair service when needed.

to Casio PhoneMate for repair. To mail the product to the service center you should:

cabinets.
Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, all implied warranties made by CASIO PHONEMATE in
connection with this product are limited in duration to a period of one (1) year from the date of original
