ANSWERING SYSTEM SETUP
Announce Only Mode
You can choose whether the answering system will signal callers and record their message (Normal Announce mode, described above) or play an announcement for callers and then hang up (Announce Only mode). The system lets you record up to two different announcements, one for Normal Announce mode, and one for Announce Only mode. For example:
“You’ve reached the Meadowlark Nursery. We’re sorry we cannot take your call. Please call back tomorrow between 9 AM and 5 PM.”
If you choose not to record an announcement for Announce Only, the system answers with the prerecorded announcement: “Hello. I’m unable to answer your call right now. Please call again. Thank you.”
NOTE: In the Announce Only mode, callers will hear the outgoing announcement twice.
