Recording a Telephone Conversation

Once you’ve established a connection with the answering system you can record a telephone conversation. The telephone conversation will be recorded along with other messages.

1.While you are having a conversation on the cordless handset, press and release ANS SYS and wait for the ANS SYS indicator to light.

2.When the indicator lights to show that you have made a connection with the answering system, press and release TONE * (MEMO/2WAY). The system will announce “For Mailbox 1, press 1; for Mailbox 2, press 2.”

3.Press and release 1 or 2.

NOTE: This unit does not sound warning beeps to let the other party know that the call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the caller that you are recording the call.

4.To stop recording, press and release 5 (STOP), or end the telephone call. The recording is counted as a new message.

NOTE: If the system does not detect a 1 or 2 for Mailbox 1 or Mailbox 2, the memo or telephone conversation will be recorded into Mailbox 1.

Call Monitoring

As calls come in, the answering system will answer and record messages as long as it is set for automatic answering operation. You can use the cordless handset to listen to the callers as they leave messages, and you can speak to a caller directly if you wish.

Monitoring Calls

1.If the handset is away from the base, press and release ANS/SYS and wait for the ANS SYS Light to go on.

2.When the light goes on to show that you have made a connection with the answering system, you will hear your own announcement and the caller’s message through the handset.

3.To end call monitoring without answering the call, press and release OFF or return the handset to the base.

Call Intercept

At any time while the answering system is taking a call – during the outgoing announcement or while the system is recording the caller’s message – you can interrupt the answering system and take the call. If the cordless handset is in the base, just pick up the handset and speak to the caller. If the handset is away from the base, press PHONE and take the call as soon as the PHONE Light goes on. You can also pick up the handset of any extension phone on the same line to take the call.

The answering system should stop playing the announcement (or recording the message). If it doesn’t stop, quickly press and release the switchhook of the extension phone you are using, or press PHONE on the handset.

Room Monitor

Once you’ve established a connection with the answering system from a remote touch tone telephone, you can listen to any activity near the base for up to 30 seconds.
