Notes: Day/Night mode, Auto attendant and Greetings:

Bank1 / Bank2
Bank1 contains the “Holiday Format” and Bank2 contains the “Normal Format” hold
music

(normally switch is in Bank 2 unless you record your flash card differently).

Use the bank switch any time to select between these two productions.

Day Mode / Night Mode: In switch positions A or B in which the device answers the
lines, set to “Day Mode” during day and “Night Mode” during the night as follows:

1) Select Line 1 you will get dial tone
2) Press FLASH you will get dial tone
3) Press FLASH you will get dial tone again

4) Press

#

you will get a prompt “device is set to Day mode” or “device is

set to Night Mode”

5) Hang up

Day Greeting: This message is heard when the device answers the lines
in “Day Mode” it can be up to 30 seconds.

Night Greeting: This message is heard when the device answers the lines
in “Night Mode” it can be up to 30 seconds.

Transfer Message: This message is heard just before the line is going to
ring again, like “please hold while we transfer your call” it can be up to 4 seconds.

All greetings, messages and the Hold Music are stored on the same Flash card

Examples of typical office use:

If you do not want any greeting stuff just set the switch to C and use the device just
for Music-on-hold function. The other switch is usually in Bank2 for “Normal Format”

Example of a day greeting: “...Thank you for calling XYZ......please hold for a
representative...” to disable the auto attendant, flip the switch to C

(SX8600 does

not answer the calls so your answering machine/service can take a message)

, or set the

Mode of operation to Night mode, in this case when the device is in A setting it will
play your “night or after hours greeting.. we are not available at this time please leave
a message then it rings so that your answering machine will take a message; and if
the device is in B setting it does not answer the calls to let your answering take them.

Example of a night greeting: ...our office is now closed... our normal office hours
are...please stay on the line to leave a message... ; set your answering machine or
voice mail service to answer at 2

nd

or 3

rd

or higher ring so when the device rings the

lines again it can take the message.
