Troubleshooting

The answering system does not respond to remote commands..

•Make sure your remote access code is correct (page 23).

•Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone telephone. When dialing a number, there should be tones. If there are clicks, then it is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.

•The answering system may not detect the remote access code when your announcement is playing. Wait until the announcement is over before entering the code.

•There may be interference on the telephone line you are using. Press the dialing keys firmly when dialing.

I subscribe to a nontraditional telephone service that uses my computer to establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work..

•Make sure your computer is powered on.

•Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.

•Make sure that the software is installed and running for your nontraditional telephone service.

•Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB port on your computer. Do not plug into a multiple port USB hub (USB splitter) that is not powered.

•In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own external power supply.

•If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional telephone service.

Contact your service provider for more information.
