Your Telstra V950a can digitally record up to
59 individual messages within the maximum
recording time of approximately 15 minutes.
Each incoming message can last up to a
maximum of 2 minutes. You can operate your
answering machine from:
• the handset.
• the base.
• remotely, from any other Touchtone™
telephone (see page 45).
Your Telstra V950a comes with two
pre-recorded outgoing messages,
Answer and Record
or
Answer Only
,
alternatively you can record your own
message.
Your answering machine is designed to answer calls
after 14 rings when it is switched off. This is to enable
you to operate the remote access functions of your
answering machine in the event your answering
machine is switched off.
You will need to set the day, date and time
(if you have not already done so) so that you
will know when each message was received.
If you have subscribed to Telstra Calling
Number Display, the date and time is set
automatically when you receive your first
call. To set the date and time manually, see
page 33.
