want played to callers.

Answer delay 

Answer delay sets the number of times

your 

VT9011

 will ring before the

answer machine picks up your call and

starts playing the outgoing message.

You can change the Answer Delay

setting to between 2, 4, 6, 8 rings or

Time Saver.

Time saver

When you ring in to access your

messages remotely, if your answering

machine is set to time saver and you

have new messages it will answer after

10 seconds, if you do not have any 

new messages, it will answer after 20

seconds. This means you can hang up

knowing you have no new messages,

saving you time and the cost of the call.

Recording time

60, 120 or 180 seconds or unlimited.
