7.1 Recording your greeting message

You can record your own greeting message for

TAM/FAX mode or TAM ONLY mode, for a

maximum of 16 seconds (default) or 60 seconds

in length for each line or a common greeting

message for both lines. We recommend you

record a message of less than 12 seconds to

make it easier to receive faxes. If a greeting

message is not recorded, pre-recorded greeting

messages will be played when a call is received

(page 68).

Sample message for TAM/FAX mode:“This is

(your name). We are unable to answer right now.

To send a fax, please start transmission. To

leave a voice message please speak after the

beep. Thank you.”

Sample message for TAM ONLY mode:“This

is (your name). We are unable to answer right

now. To leave a voice message, please speak

after the beep. Thank you.”

for both lines, press {LINE SELECT}

repeatedly until “LINE 1 and LINE 2” is

announced.

L“LINE1&LINE2” will be displayed.

To record a greeting message for either

line individually, press {LINE SELECT}

repeatedly until “LINE 1” or “LINE 2” is

announced.

L“LINE1” or “LINE2” will be displayed.

LThe display will show the remaining

recording time.

5To stop recording, press {GREETING/REC}.

LYou can also stop recording by pressing

{STOP}.

Note:

LIf 6 beeps sound and the unit announces

“Your greeting was not recorded. Record your

greeting again.”, start again.

LYou can change the maximum greeting

message recording time to 60 seconds

(feature #54 on page 82).

– If you change the setting to 60 seconds,

we recommend that you tell the caller in

your telephone answering machine

greeting message to press *9 before

starting fax transmission (TAM/FAX mode

only).

– If you change the setting from 60 seconds

to 16 seconds, your current greeting

message will be deleted. The pre-

recorded greeting message will be played

when a call is received.

LIf you change the AUTO ANSWER setting

from TAM/FAX mode to TAM ONLY mode or

vice versa (feature #77* and feature #77#

on page 83), re-record an appropriate

greeting message for the selected mode.

LIf you change the maximum recording time to

“GREETING ONLY” (feature #10* and

feature #10# on page 79, or feature 0621 and

feature 0622 on page 89), the unit will answer

a call with your current greeting message,

and then hang up. Re-record your greeting

message.

Sample message when the recording time

is set to “GREETING ONLY”: “This is (your

name). We are unable to answer right now.

Please try again later. Thank you.”

To check the greeting message

1. Select the line(s) by pressing {LINE

SELECT}.

2. Press {GREETING/CHECK}.

LWhen both lines are selected and they

have separate greeting messages, the

greeting message for LINE 1 will be

played first.
