About Announcements
• You can record two different announcements — one for normal answering and one for when you’ve
set the system to play the announcement only.
• Use normal answering when you want the system to record callers’ messages. Use announce
only when you want to give information to callers without accepting messages.
• If you choose not to record an announcement, the system answers with a pre-recorded
announcement.
• The normal answering pre-recorded announcement says: “ Hello. I’m unable to answer your call right
now. Please leave your name, number and a message after the tone.” The announce only pre-
recorded announcement says: “ Hello, I’m unable to answer your call right now. Please call again.
Thank you.”
