Answering Calls

When you’ve selected announcement A, , or C, and the system answers a call, the caller hears the announcement you recorded, followed by a beep. During the announcement, callers can press 1, 2, or 3 to select a mailbox, or they can wait for the beep to leave a message in Mailbox 1. After the beep, the system begins recording your caller’s message. A caller can leave a message up to three minutes long. If the message is longer than three minutes, or if the caller is silent for more than seven seconds, or if the system runs out of memory, the system beeps once and hangs up.

If you’ve selected announcement AO, callers hear your announcement but cannot record a message.

Priority Call Code

If a caller enters the code you provide (preset to 999) while your announcement is playing, the system will alert you with a special tone that a priority caller is on the line. Answer the call with a telephone connected on the same line as the answering system.
