Making Incoming Messages Audible/Silent
Just like with other Answering Machines, you can “screen” callers by having
incoming messages played aloud on the
CapTel
phone for you to hear and
read before you answer the call. While this is a convenient feature, there may
be times when you do not want incoming messages to be played aloud, but
instead taken silently for you to review at a later time. The default setting is
for incoming messages to be muted (silent).
To make incoming calls audible or set them to be silent:
1. With the handset hung up,
press the
YES
button to see the
Options menu.
2. Press the
DOWN
arrow button
until
Answering Machine
is
highlighted. Press the
YES
button to select.
3. Press the
DOWN
arrow button
repeatedly until
Incoming
Messages
is highlighted. Press
the
YES
button to accept.
4. Press the
UP
or
DOWN
arrow
button to highlight
Incoming
Messages Audible
or
Muted
.
Incoming Messages Audible:
will play
incoming messages aloud on the
CapTel
phone as the message is being taken for you
to hear/screen as they are recorded.
Incoming Messages Muted:
will take
incoming messages silently, you will not be
able to hear the message as it is being
taken. You will be able to hear and review
the message after it has been recorded.
