Answering system
feature
Important:
L
Only 1 person can access the answering
system (listen to messages, record a
greeting message, etc.) at a time.
L
When callers leave messages, the unit
records the day and time of each
message. Make sure the date and time
have been set (page 29).
L
You can use your computer with the
included MULTI TALK V USB Utility to
play, erase, and save answering system
messages. Refer to the help section of
the MULTI TALK V USB Utility
application for more information (page
4).
Memory capacity
The total recording capacity (including
your greeting message, caller messages,
and voice memos) is about 60 minutes. A
maximum of 99 messages (including a
greeting message) can be recorded.
L
If the message memory becomes full,
the ANSWER ON indicator flashes
rapidly (if the answering system is
turned on).
To record additional messages, erase
unnecessary messages (page 81).
L
If less than 10 minutes of recording time
is available, the unit announces the
remaining recording time when
operating the answering system.

Messages are retained even if a power
failure occurs.
