— If there are new mes-
sages, the TAD-1028 answers after
two rings. Otherwise, the TAD answers
after four rings. This gives you time to
hang up before the TAD-1028 answers
so you can avoid unnecessary long-
distance charges.
SETTING THE TAD-1028
TO ANSWER CALLS
To set the TAD-1028 to answer calls,
press
ANSWER/STOP/DELETE
.
• If an outgoing message is re-
corded, the TAD-1028 announces,
“Answer on,” and the ANSWER in-
dicator lights.
• If no outgoing message is
recorded, the TAD-1028 says,
“Answer off, no announcement”
(see “Recording the Outgoing Mes-
sage” on Page 16).
To have the TAD-1028 not answer
calls, press
ANSWER/STOP/DELETE
again. The TAD announces “Answer
off,” and the ANSWER indicator turns
off.
RECORDING INCOMING
MESSAGES
Each incoming message can be up to
60 seconds long.
The TAD hangs up and resets to an-
swer the next call when:
• The caller hangs up.
• The maximum message length (60
seconds) is reached.
• There are more than 8 seconds of
silence.
• You pick up any phone on the
same phone line as the TAD (see
“Screening Calls”).
The PLAY/SKIP indicator flashes when
a new message is recorded.
SCREENING CALLS
To screen calls, let the TAD-1028 an-
swer them, then listen to the caller’s
message through the TAD’s speaker. If
you decide to answer the call, pick up
any phone on the same phone line as
the TAD. The TAD stops recording and
resets to answer the next call.
Note:
If you pick up the phone just as
the TAD-1028 answers, the TAD might
not stop playing the outgoing message.
If this happens, press
ANSWER/STOP/
DELETE
to stop the TAD.
