About Mailboxes
This answering system has three voice mailboxes. Callers using a touch
tone phone can select the mailbox in which their messages will be
recorded by pressing
1, 2, or 3. All other messages will be recorded
in Mailbox 1.
About Announcements
•
You can record up to 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.
Please leave a message after the tone.”
The Announce Only
pre-recorded announcement says: “We’re sorry, messages to this
number cannot be accepted.”
•
By setting Announce Only to on or off, you decide which
announcement your callers will hear when the system answers a
call (the system comes set for normal answering, with Announce
Only turned off). See “Change announce only” on page 54 to
change your announcement selection.
