Notes:
•The announce-only OGM does not affect your original OGM that tells callers to leave a message. Each OGM can be recorded, played back, or deleted independently.
•When the system is set for announce-only, you cannot set it to record calls using the remote commands. Use remote commands to perform all other operations.
•If you delete your recorded announce-only (AO) message or never recorded one, you cannot use this feature. You must record an announce-only message before this feature will function.
•If you have not recorded an announce-only OGM and the switch is set to ANN. ONLY, the system seizes the telephone line after 10 rings and beeps twice. Enter the remote opera- tion security code within about 7 seconds, then enter 8# to start recording your announce-only OGM. To stop record- ing, enter 5#. Your announce-only OGM automatically plays back once. After that, the system answers according to the RINGS setting and plays your announcement.
Screening Calls
To screen your calls, let the system answer and listen to the caller’s message through the system’s speaker. If you decide to answer the call, pick up any phone connected to the same phone line as the answering system. The system stops record- ing and resets to answer the next call.
