Brother FAX-T98 manual Recording outgoing message OGM on an external TAD

Recording outgoing message (OGM) on an external TAD

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

1 Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows the fax machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)

2 Limit your message to 20 seconds.

3 End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people sending manual faxes. For example:

“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing 51 and Start.”

We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second silence because the fax machine cannot hear fax tones over a resonant or loud voice. You may try omitting this pause, but if the fax machine has trouble receiving, then you must re-record the OGM to include it.
