Standard
Operation
In the standard mode, the BA-1000-A will answer calls,
record the caller’s information and, if the caller dials a touch
tone 8, call the list of urgent phone numbers. When the system
calls you with an urgent message, you simply enter your access
code to hear the message and reset the system.

Connect it and Power Up
Connect our phone cord from the unit to your phone line
jack on the wall. It will only work on a standard phone line, like
your house phone line or a jack your FAX machine plugs in to.
Insert the CF Card into the back of the unit; the system
MUST have the CF Card in the unit at all times to operate.
Connect the supplied POWER ADAPTER to the
POWER jack on the rear panel of the BA-1000-A. This
MUST be done before the POWER ADAPTER is connected
to 115VAC power.
Now plug the POWER ADAPTER to a 115VAC 60Hz
power outlet.
