3.3 Using Answering Machine Emulation (AME)
When a call is connected to your voice mail, you can screen the
call as with a normal Answering Machine. The caller‘s voice is
played over your speaker while the message is being recorded.
There are two methods of notification and call screening provided,
LED blink mode or Speaker hearing mode.
Manual Mode
—the Answering Machine Emulation (AME) Flex
button will flash to notify you of a call. You may press the Flex
button to hear the caller as the voice message is stored.
Auto Mode
—when the call is sent to the voice mailbox, the
caller‘s voice is automatically broadcast over the speaker of your
Phone.
You may terminate screening, leaving the caller in voice mail to
record a message, talk with the caller and record the conversation
in the mailbox, or answer the call and disconnect the Voicemail.
The AME feature is only available when using the VSF Voice Mail;
a AME button should be programmed (refer to Appendix A User
Program Codes).
