a Calling Party Control (CPC) signal, it stops playing the outgo- ing message or recording an incoming message and resets to answer another call.

Many local phone companies use Calling Party Control (CPC) to signal that the caller has hung up. Your system can recog- nize a CPC signal and release the line. If the system records phone company messages or dial tones, your local phone com- pany probably does not use CPC.

If FL flashes on the display, the system’s memory is full. It an- swers calls after 10 rings. The caller hears “No one is available to take your call” when the system answers, and the caller can- not leave a message. The system then hangs up. The system cannot record additional messages until you delete some of the old messages (see “Deleting Messages” on Page 17).

If the memory is full, the system announces “Memory is full” when you record an outgoing message or a memo.

Using Announce-Only

Your system’s announce-only feature lets you set the system to play a message for the caller, then automatically hang up with- out letting the caller leave a message.

To select the announce-only mode, see “Setting the Incoming Message Length” on Page 11.

The system has a prerecorded announce-only OGM that says “No one is available to take your call”. You can use this mes- sage or record your own. To record a message, slide INCOMING MSG to ANN ONLY, then hold down REPEAT/ANNC/DAY. A2 flashes on the display, and the system sounds a tone. Speak
