ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION
Away From Home
Voice Activated Commands
When a touch tone telephone is not avail-
able, you can still call the system to listen
to your messages. Use your voice to enter
the Remote Access Code, to repeat the
messages, and to delete messages.
Speak in response to the prompts presented
by the system as described below. You
must speak quickly and loudly in order for
the system to detect your voice.
The system does not recognize the actual
words you are saying; it responds to any
sufficiently intense auditory signal. For
example, you could say any phrase that is
easy for you to remember, instead of say-
ing "Enter Code."
You can hang up at any time during the
call. The system saves your messages,
unless you respond to the "Delete all mes-
sages?" prompt.
1 Dial your telephone number, listen for
the announcement, and then remain
silent after the beep.
If the system answers after 10 rings
(because it is off or the memory is full),
remain silent after the two-beep signal.
2 After about 10 seconds, the system
prompts "Enter remote access code."
Immediately respond by saying "Enter
code."
3 You then hear, "First digit," followed by
"Enter 4," "Enter 5," "Enter six," and so
forth. When you hear the first digit of
the Remote Access Code, immediately
respond by saying "Enter code."
For example, if your Remote Access
Code is 543, wait to hear "Enter five,"
then say "Enter code."
4 You then hear "Second digit," followed
by "Enter zero," "Enter one," Enter two,"
and so forth. When you hear the second
digit of the Remote Access Code, say
"Enter code."
5 You then hear "Third digit," followed by
"Enter zero," "Enter one," Enter two,"
and so forth. When you hear the third
digit of the Remote Access Code, say
"Enter code."
6 If you enter the code correctly, the
system announces how many messages
have been received for each mailbox,
and begins to play all the messages.
If no messages have been received, the
system disconnects the call.
7 At the end of each messages, the system
prompts "Repeat message?" To hear the
message again, say "Repeat message."
If you remain silent, the system plays
the next message. You can repeat each
message once.
8 After the last message plays, the system
announces "End of messages" followed
by the prompt "Replay messages?"
To replay all the messages, say "Replay
messages." If you remain silent, the
system prompts "Delete all messages?"
9 To delete all the messages you just heard,
say "Delete messages." The system then
repeats the "Delete all messages?"
prompt to confirm your choice. To
confirm the delete, say "Delete
messages." The system announces
"Messages deleted." If you remain silent
after the "Delete all messages?" prompt,
the messages are not deleted.
If you do not enter
the correct Remote Access Code.
If you enter an incorrect Remote Access
Code, the system beeps five times and be-
gins the sequence of prompts again. If you
enter the wrong code on the second try, the
system disconnects the call.
If you do not respond to the correct digit
while entering the Remote Access Code (or
if the system fails to detect your response),
you can remain silent until after you hear
the "Enter nine" prompt. The system beeps
five times and begins the sequence of
prompts again. If you do not respond cor-
rectly during the second sequence of
prompts, the system disconnects the call.
