When recording your Answer Only
message, remember to advise your
caller that they will not be able to
leave a message. Your own Answer
Only message can be up to 1 minute
long and will replace the pre-recorded
message.
To reinstate the pre-recorded
messages, delete your own recorded
outgoing message, see "Check or
delete your outgoing message".
You cannot delete a pre-recorded
message. If you delete your
personal outgoing message the
pre-recorded outgoing message will
be automatically reinstated as your
outgoing message.
Answer mode
Choose which outgoing message you
want played to callers.
Answer delay
Answer delay sets the number of
times your BT Inspire 1500 will ring
before the answer machine picks
up your call and starts playing the
outgoing message. You can change
the Answer Delay setting to 2-9 Rings
and Time Saver.
For compatibility with BT 1571 (or
another voicemail service) do not set
the ring delay to more than 6 rings.
For more information on BT 1571,
please see page 50.
Time saver
When you ring in to access your
messages remotely, if your answering
machine is set to time saver and you
have new messages it will answer
after 10 seconds, if you do not have
any new messages, it will answer
after 20 seconds. This means you can
hang up knowing you have no new
messages, saving you time and the
cost of the call.
