Outgoing Message (OGM) of External TAD

Timing is important in recording this message.

1Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

2Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your MFC time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)

3End your 20-second message 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.”
