4.2 ANSWERING

MACHINES

An answering machine is an

effective tool when used

with The Stick. When
connected to either

“VOICE” port, the

answering machine will field any

unanswered voice calls, and via a message,

provide instructions on how to access other
equipment. A sample message might go something like this:

Hi! You have reached (Name/Company/Phone Number). We are
not in right now, but if you wish to leave a message, wait for the
beep. If you want to send us a FAX, press * 2 (or reprogrammed

code). If you can’t dial * 2 on your phone, just stay silent after

the beep and wait until the answering machine stops. You
then be transferred to the FAX automatically. Start your

will

transmission

nice day!

when you hear our FAX signal. Thanks and have a

This message reflects the use of three programmable features-the

SAC

for the FAX port, Answering Machine Silent Transfer

and

Silent

Transfer Destination

. The SAC for transfer to the FAX machine is

factory preset at * 2 “Answering Machine Silent Transfer” has been

programmed “on” and the ‘Silent Transfer Destination” used is factory

preset to the “FAX” port.

Retrieving An Answering Machine Message-Most answering

machines on the market today have factory preset “retrieval codes” for

accessing a message from a remote phone. There is no special feature on
The Stick for accessing your answering machine-just call your phone

number, let the machine answer the line, and dial your “retrieval code”.

Again, we remind you to program all SAC’s used for voice/data
equipment differently from your answering machine “retrieval code”.
