Recording the calls

This is a feature of the answering machine; enables a call to be recorded.

Reject call waiting

Deactivates the call waiting signal.

Remote replay

Answering machine function. This involves dialling in to the answering machine to listen to messages; in most cases you can also delete messages and change announcements.

Remote power-on

This enables the answering machine to be switched on and off under PIN control during a telephone call.

Repeater

With a repeater you can increase the range of the handsets linked to a base station telephone. The unit receives the radio signal from the base station telephone and transmits it on.

Repertory keys/function keys

Enhanced feature on a telephone; a limited set of call numbers can be assigned to specific keys. These programmed numbers can then be dialled at the push of a button.

Ring delay

For each internal user you can define how many ringing signals are received before ringing is activated. This setting can be made for each MSN.

If you are operating your handset on the private call number, ringing should start after, say, three ring tones in addition to the base station telephone (the base station telephone will start ringing immediately), whereas your handset should ring immediately if you receive a call on the business number.

Room monitoring

A feature on the answering machine or telephone, for example. Enables you to listen in on a room via the telephone network. PIN-protected.
