Note: If you press SPEAKER or PLAY/STOP while changing the PIN, the TAD exits. Begin again with Step 1.

REMOTE OPERATION

While you are away from your home or of- fice, you can use a touch-tone phone, or a pulse (rotary) phone with a pocket tone dialer (not supplied and available through your lo- cal RadioShack store) to enter your PIN and do any of the following:

Set the TAD to answer or not answer calls.

Listen to your messages.

Record a new outgoing message.

Record a memo.

Erase messages.

Note: You cannot remotely operate the TAD using its handset or another telephone on the same line as the TAD.

USING THE TOLL-SAVER

If RING TIME is set to T/S (toll-saver), (see “Setting the Number of Rings” on Page 13), the TAD answers after three rings if you have new messages (ones you have not listened to). If there are no new messages, the TAD answers after five rings. This gives you time to hang up before the TAD answers so you can avoid unnecessary long-distance charg- es.

USING REMOTE

COMMANDS

Follow these steps to operate the TAD from a remote location.

Note: If you wait more than 15 seconds be- tween each keypress, the TAD sounds a long beep and hangs up.

1.Dial your phone number and wait for the TAD to answer.

2.If the TAD is not set to answer calls, it will answer after about 10 rings and sound a series of beeps.

3.When the outgoing message begins (or the TAD sounds a series of beeps), press #, then enter your PIN within 2 seconds.

If the PIN is correct, the TAD announces the day and time, then it announces the number of new and old messages. The TAD plays all new messages then beeps about once every two seconds to let you know it is ready to ac- cept remote commands.

Notes:

If the TAD does not respond, try entering your pin again. If you enter an incorrect PIN three times, the TAD beeps and hangs up.

When the TAD is in remote operation, it stops all answering functions and rC appears on the base’s display. The TAD resumes answering functions when it is no longer in the remote command if you did not turn it off.

The remote playback of incoming mes- sages is limited to 4 minutes. If you have more messages after 4 minutes have passed, you must press # 2 again to lis- ten to the rest of the messages.

When using remote operation, you can only delete the current message during playback. You cannot delete all the mes- sages stored at one time.

The maximum length of a memo recorded by remote operation is 4 min- utes.
