When recording your Answer Only message, remember to advise your caller that they will not be able to leave a message. Your own Answer Only message can be up to 1 minute long and will replace the pre-recorded message.

To reinstate the pre-recorded messages, delete your own recorded outgoing message, see "Check or delete your outgoing message".

You cannot delete a pre-recorded message. If you delete your personal outgoing message the pre-recorded outgoing message will be automatically reinstated as your outgoing message.

Answer mode

Choose which outgoing message you want played to callers.

Answer delay

Answer delay sets the number of times your BT Inspire 1500 will ring before the answer machine picks up your call and starts playing the outgoing message. You can change the Answer Delay setting to 2-9 Rings and Time Saver.

For compatibility with BT 1571 (or another voicemail service) do not set the ring delay to more than 6 rings.

For more information on BT 1571, please see page 50.

Time saver

When you ring in to access your messages remotely, if your answering machine is set to time saver and you have new messages it will answer after 10 seconds, if you do not have any new messages, it will answer after 20 seconds. This means you can hang up knowing you have no new messages, saving you time and the cost of the call.

Recording time

Set the maximum message length: 1, 2 or 3 minutes or unlimited.
