OTHER FUNCTIONS

Note: If needed, you can turn the Transfer function on or off from a remote loca- tion. See "Other remote operations" in the previous section, "Remote opera- tions".

Override Ringing

This function allows selected callers using a touch-tone telephone to override the answering machine’s outgoing message and cause the FO-1650/1850 to make a special ringing sound, alerting you that they are calling. This is useful when you are near the machine but only want to talk with certain callers, taking all other calls on the answering machine.

Programming the override code

To override the answering machine, your callers must enter a 3-digit override code from their telephone. This code has been set to "009" at the factory. If you want to change it, press the panel keys as shown below.

Important!

Make sure the override code is different from the remote code or any passcodes programmed for boxes.
