To Use
■ Go to the machine to manually play back messages.
■ From any system extension, make an intercom call to the answering
machine extension. When the machine answers, dial its message retrieval
code.
■
From outside the system, call in on any line assigned to the machine.
When the machine answers, dial its message retrieval code.
To Program
1. If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign
all the lines to extension X that you want the answering machine to cover.
If extension X is a pooled extension, use Line Extension Assignment
(#314) to assign all the pools to extension X that you want the answering
machine to cover. Also, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign any
individual lines to extension X that you want the answering machine to
cover.
2. Set Line Ringing for all lines and pools assigned to extension X to
Immediate Ring.
3. Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night
Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
4. Adjust the answering machine to answer according to your needs. For
example, set the machine to answer on the fourth ring during the day so
someone has a chance to pick up the call.
