Answering System Feature Setup
Announcement Options
This answering system lets you record up to four different announcements —
A, B, C, and
AO. Each can be presented to callers on either Line 1 or Line 2. You can assign the same
announcement to be presented on both lines, or you can choose different
announcements for each line.
NOTE: A total of about 22 minutes of recording time is available for your
announcements and callers’ messages.
Use Announcements
A, B, and C when you want the system to record callers’ messages.
If you do not want to record your own announcement, or if a recorded announcement is
lost in a power failure, the system provides a brief pre-recorded announcement.
Use Announcement
AO (Announce Only) when you want the system to play an
announcement and then hang up.There is no pre-recorded announcement for
AO.
If you choose
AO, you must record an announcement for it.
Record Outgoing Announcement for a Line
NOTE
: If you choose not to record an announcement, the system answers with a
pre-recorded announcement: “Hello. Please leave a message after the tone.”
