Outgoing Message (OGM) of External TAD
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
1We recommend the outgoing message (OGM) is no longer than 20 seconds.
2Allow 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows the fax to detect the calling tone prior to OGM, so reception can be faster.)
3We recommend that you end your OGM by giving your Remote Activation Code for people sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or send a fax manually by pressing 51 and Start”
Please note that some faxes that are sent manually cannot be received automatically because some fax machines do not send a fax tone if the call is manually dialled. In these cases you must inform callers that they must enter the remote activation code to send a fax.
