REMOTE OPERATION
While you are away from your home or
office, you can use a touch-tone phone
or a pulse (rotary) phone with a pocket
tone dialer to enter your security code
and do any of the following:
• Set the TAD to answer calls
• Listen to your messages
• Record a new announcement
• Record a memo
• Delete messages
• Monitor the room where the TAD
is located
USING THE TOLL SAVER
When you call the TAD, it is preset to
answer after about two rings if you
have new messages (ones you have
not played). If there are no new mes-
sages, the TAD is preset to wait for
about four rings before it answers. This
gives you time to hang up before the
TAD answers and avoid unnecessary
long-distance charges. See “Setting
the Number of Rings.”
SETTING THE REMOTE
OPERATION SECURITY
CODE
The TAD’s preset remote operation se-
curity code is 00. Follow these steps if
you want to set a different code.
1. Press
PGM/DEL
. The answer indi-
cator flashes. Press
REMOTE
.
2. Within 30 seconds, enter your 2-
digit remote operation security
code. The TAD beeps twice.
REMOTE ANSWER-ON
You can use any remote phone to set
the TAD to answer calls and record
messages. But, the TAD must be
plugged into AC power.
Note: When the TAD is set for an-
nouncement-only, you cannot set the
TAD to record calls using this proce-
dure.
To remotely set the TAD to answer
calls, dial your phone number and wait
about 12-14 rings until the TAD an-
swers. Then hang up the phone or pro-
ceed with remote operation beginning
with Step 2 under “Using Remote Con-
trol Commands.”
After you hang up, the TAD answers
calls and records incoming messages.
