activated on your telephone line. If you have either:
BT Answer 1571 this service answers after 7 rings and cannot be changed. Set the BT Inspire 1500
Answer delay (page 36 "Answer Settings") to answer after six rings this will ensure that the answer
machine receives the message.
BT Call Minder this service allows you to vary when the service answers the call, either 0, 4, 7 or
10 rings. Change the Voice Mail service to answer after 7 or 10 rings and then set the Inspire 1500

machine receives the message.
