Advanced answering machine use
Remote access :
ringing in from outside and operating the machine
With remote access you can:
•
listen to (and erase) messages and memos
•
listen to OGMs and record new ones
•
leave a message in a specific mailbox
•
switch the machine on or off
•
set OGM1 instead of OGM2
You need to use:
•
a phone with Tone dialling; or
•
a Tone Dialler. But if the seal between the Tone Dialler and the mouthpiece isn’t
perfect, you won’t get perfect results.
What you need to know before you start
•
For most functions you’ll need to enter your security code. Your security code is set
to 125 but you can change it: see below.
•
If your phone lets you, send generous tones, not short ones.
•
Give the machine time to respond but don’t leave longer than 15 seconds between
button presses. Otherwise you’ll be cut off.
•
The machine beeps twice when it receives a command.
•
If the memory’s full, the machine will answer after 15 rings and play OGM2 instead
of OGM1. If you erase messages the machine will accept new ones again.
Your security code
Your security code is set to 125 but you can change it. Never change it to 999 or 112 - these
are emergency numbers.

2 Press REPEAT.
To change it your security code
1 Hold down REPEAT until you hear a beep.
The machine will call out the security code. Wait for the first digit to freeze.
2 Press OGM1 or OGM2 to change the digit. Then press REPEAT.
3 When the second digit freezes, change it by repeating step 2. Then do the same with
the third digit.
The machine will call out your new code.
•
If you unplug the machine and remove the batteries, the code will change back to
125.
