Answering Machine Emulation (AME)
This feature “Mimics” the call screening feature of an answering machine. Five
seconds after a call is answered by an extension users‟ voice mailbox, that user
can monitor/screen the caller as they leave a message.
The extension user will receive a warning tone, which indicates that a caller has
been answered by their voice mailbox. The user has the option to monitor the
call, or ignore the alert, and allow the caller to leave a message. Once the user
has selected to monitor the caller, they have the option to leave the caller
undisturbed (leaving a message) or to retrieve the caller from the voice mailbox
and be connected to the caller for a live conversation.
Using AME
 The extension must be forwarded to Voice Mail.
 The Telephone Company Central Office Line may be transferred directly
into the user‟s voicemail box, or transferred and ring at the extension
until it is forwarded to voice mail.
 If a call is transferred to your extension or directly into your voice
mailbox, AME is available once the Line button turns green. You may
press the center navigation button to monitor the message being left.
 Lift the handset to speak live to the calling party.
 Press the left or right navigation button to exit the AME without
intercepting the call.
Playing New Messages
The center navigation button will flash when you have a new voice mail
message. In addition, the display will indicate how many new voice mail
messages you have.
