RECORDING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGES
Before you can set the TAD to answer
calls and record messages, you must
record the outgoing message (OGM) the
caller hears when the TAD answers a
call. The TAD-1024 lets you record two
separate messages and it operates dif-
ferently based on which message you
select (see “Setting the TAD to Answer
Calls” on Page 11).
•
OGM 1
plays the message you re-
corded, and lets the caller leave a
message of up to 60 seconds.
•
OGM 2
(announcement only) plays
the message you recorded, but
hangs up without letting the caller
leave a message. This is useful for
announcing information about an
upcoming event. Be sure the
announcement clearly states that
the caller cannot leave a message.
If the TAD-1024’s memory
becomes full, it will automatically
switch from OGM 1 to OGM 2 and
play that message for any new
calls.
Note: The maximum length for each out-
going message is 32 seconds. As you
record, the display counts down the re-
maining recording time.
Recording the Outgoing
Messages
1. To record an OGM 1 message, hold
down
OGM 1
until the TAD beeps
and
A1
(Announcement 1) appears.
To record an OGM 2 message, hold
down
OGM 2
until the TAD beeps
and
A2
(Announcement 2) appears.
2. Speak in a normal voice about 8
inches away from the microphone
(located on the front of the TAD). If
you recording the OGM 1 message,
ask for the caller’s name, phone
number, and message.
