Recording

The recorder provides five folders, A, B, C, D and E, and each message recorded in a folder is saved as a Windows Media Audio (WMA) file. These five folders can be selectively used to distinguish the kind of recording; for example, Folder A might be used to store private information, while Folder B might be dedicated to holding business information. Up to 199 messages can be recorded per folder.
