Information about ring delay
In
Automatic
mode, the following applies
for ring delay:
u
If there are no new messages, the answer-
ing machine answers a call after
18 seconds.
u
If new messages are present, the answer-
ing machine answers a call after 10 sec-
onds.
When operating remotely
you can tell after approx. 15 seconds that
there are no new messages (otherwise the
answering machine would have already
accepted your call). There are no call charges
if you hang up now.
Please note:
You can configure your telephone so that
the
first
ringer is
suppressed
on all calls
. This means that the time set for
the ring delay predetermines how long the
caller must wait before the answering
machine accepts the call (not how long it
rings).
Operating when on the move
(remote operation)
You can check and activate your answering
machine from any other telephone (hotel,
pay phone etc.).
Prerequisites:
u
You have set a system PIN other than
0000
u
The phone you are using for remote oper-
ation has tone dialling (DTMF) i.e., you
hear different tones when you press the
keys. Alternatively, you can use a code
transmitter (available from retailers).
u
The connection/MSN via which you call is
assigned to the answering machine as a
receive connection.
Please note
Remote operation via VoIP connections
is possible as long as DTMF signals are
transmitted (depending on the provider)
as SIP info messages, audible signals in
the voice channel (inband or audio) or as
special RTP data packets (pursuant to
RFC2833).
