TAD Operation
Announce Only
When the announce-only feature is on, the
TAD plays OGM 2 but does not let callers
leave a message. (You must have recorded
an OGM 2 message before you can use this
feature.)
To set the TAD to announce-only, be sure
the TAD is set to answer calls, then press
OGM2
. The TAD says “Announce only,” and
ANS
ONLY
appears. The TAD plays OGM 2,
and
OGM2
PLAYING
briefly appears.
To turn off the announce-only feature, press
OGM1
. The TAD beeps, says “Answer on,”
and plays OGM 1.
To turn off the TAD so it does not answer
calls, press
ANSWER
again. The TAD an-
nounces “Answer off” and beeps. The HOLD/
ANSWER indicator turns off.
INCOMING MESSAGE
RECORDING
Each incoming message can be up to 60
seconds long. While recording the incoming
message,
ICM
RECORDING
appears on the
display. When a recording reaches 55 sec-
onds, the TAD beeps to notify the caller that
time will soon be up. At 60 seconds it sounds
one long and four short beeps, says “Thank
you for your call,” and hangs up.
Additionally, the TAD stops recording and re-
sets to answer the next call when:
• The caller hangs up.
• There are more than 8 seconds of
silence.
• You pick up any phone on the same line
as the TAD.
If the TAD's incoming messages are full but
the Caller ID records are not full, the TAD an-
nounces “Message is full”, and
xx
CALLS
xx
MSG
FULL
appears. It answers calls af-
ter 3 rings and plays the second outgoing
message (OGM 2). If no OGM 2 is recorded,
the TAD says “Message is full. Thank you for
your call.”
If Caller ID records or both the incoming
messages and Caller ID records are full, the
TAD announces “Memory is full,” and
xx
CALLS
xx
MSG
FULL
appears. The TAD
answers calls after 3 rings and plays the sec-
ond outgoing message (OGM 2). If no OGM
2 is recorded, the TAD says “Memory is full.
Thank you for your call.”
Notes:
• The maximum recording capacity is 16
minutes (or 68 recorded messages), or
62 Caller ID records.
• Many local phone companies use calling
party control (CPC) to signal that the
caller has hung up. Your TAD recog-
nizes a CPC signal and releases the
line. If the TAD records phone company
messages or dial tones, your local
phone company probably does not use
CPC.
PLAYING MESSAGES
The TAD's message window shows the total
number of messages, both old and new. If
there are new messages, the NEW MES-
SAGE indicator flashes.
To play all messages, press
PLAY
. The TAD
announces the number of messages record-
ed, the message number and the day and
time the message was recorded, and then
plays the message.
