BT Diverse 5450 ~ 6th Edition ~ 29th August ’03 ~ 5199

Quick access button setting

Your BT Diverse 5450 comes preset so that you can quickly access your

answering machine messages by pressing the ENVELOPE button.

If you have Call Minder or a Network Messaging Service set up on your BT Diverse 5450 you may want to change

this setting, so that when you press the ENVELOPE button you have quick

access to your mailbox, instead of to the built-in answering machine. For more information on Voice Mail, see page 42.

Answer delay

Answer delay sets the number of times your BT Diverse 5450 will ring before the answering machine picks up a call and starts playing the outgoing message.

You can choose for the answering machine to pick up immediately, after 10 seconds, after 20 seconds (pre-set setting) or after 30 second. You can also select ‘Auto’ which is the Time Saver setting.

Time Saver can save you the cost of a call when you want to ring in to find out if you have new messages.

If your answering machine answers after 10 seconds, you have new messages. If it answers after 20 seconds you do not have new messages.

So if you wait for approximately 15 seconds, you can end the call without the cost of being connected, knowing you have no new messages.
