TAD OPERATION
SELECTING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGE
The TAD has two prerecorded outgoing
messages. One asks the caller to leave
a message: “Hello, no one is available to
take your call. Please leave a message
after the tone.” The TAD uses this mes-
sage when
REC TIME is set to 1 or 4 (see
“Setting the Record Time” on Page 29).
The other is simply an announcement
and does not let the caller leave a mes-
sage: “Hello, no one is available to take
your call.” The TAD uses this message
when
REC TIME is set to ANN (an-
nouncement only)
You can also record your own message
(see “Recording/Deleting an Outgoing
Message”). When you record your own
outgoing message, the TAD uses it for
all
REC TIME settings.
To switch between your outgoing mes-
sage and the TAD’s prerecorded mes-
sage, press
OGM . When the current
message begins to play, press OGM
again. The TAD switches to the other
message and plays it.
RECORDING/DELETING
AN OUTGOING MESSAGE
To record your outgoing message (up to
30 seconds long), hold down
OGM until
the TAD beeps and -- appears. When
you finish your message, press STOP .
The TAD plays back your message.
Hint: Do not tell callers that you are not
home. Instead, say that you cannot
come to the phone right now.
Note: The TAD-797 cannot record an
outgoing message less than two sec-
onds long.
To delete your outgoing message and
use the TAD’s prerecorded messages,
hold down
OGM until the TAD beeps.
Then press OGM again within two sec-
onds.
