EZ Answer

The 

EZ ANSWER 

may be wall mounted or kept on the tabletop. 

The unit has wall-mounting eyelets on the bottom of the unit, 
centered on 3.0 inch spacing.

The 

EZ ANSWER 

has a Volume Level adjust control on the rear 

panel of the unit, for adjusting the output level of the voice 
message played back to the caller. The control is common for 
both the ports.

The EZ ANSWER does not need any batteries to retain its VOICE 
MESSAGES or the Program Parameters, since both are stored in 
Non-volatile memory.

The EZ ANSWER is a Plug-n-play product, which can be put to 
use with a minimum of programming. It comes with default 
parameters and default voice messages programmed in the unit, 
which will be adequate for most installations. At some places, 
the extension lengths and hook flash timings may need to be 
programmed to get the unit to work properly,

The EZ ANSWER is completely remote programmable.

Installation

Unpack the unit from its shipping carton and check that all the 
materials have been received in good condition. Any damages or 
shortfalls must be reported immediately to the distributor from 
whom the purchase was made.

EZ ANSWER

 shipping carton must contain :
