OPERATION
When the system answers a call in ”ANSWER &
RECORD” mode, the caller hears the announce-
ment ANS1 followed by a beep.
While the system is answering a call, the mes-
sage window displays ”
--
”. The answer key will
flash if a new message exists.
For ”ANSWER ONLY” mode, the system will only
play ANS2 and no message will be recorded.
To conserve memory, messages are limited to a
maximum of 60 seconds each. The system will
beep once and hang up if:
1.
the caller is still speaking after 60 seconds
2.
the caller is silent for more than 8 seconds
3.
the system memory runs out
4.
a continuous signal or busy tone is detected
People who call frequently can press ”
*
” (from a
touch tone telephone) when the announcement
begins. The system will skip the rest of the an-
nouncement, beep, and begin recording.
To screen your calls, set the system to answer
calls and adjust the volume control so you can
hear the announcement and callers message on
the system´s speaker. If you decide to take a call,
lift the handset of any telephone on the same
line. The system will stop recording and reset to
answer calls.
Note:
If the announcement does not stop immediately,
press the (
) key or the telephone hook switch.
