PREPARATION
RECORDING THE OUTGOING MESSAGES
Before you can set the DTAM to answer calls and record messages, you must record the outgoing message (OGM) the caller hears when the DTAM answers a call. The DTAM lets you record two separate messages and it operates differently based on which message you select (see "Setting the DTAM to Answer Calls" on Page 25).
•OGM 1 plays the message you recorded, and lets the caller leave a message of up to 60 seconds.
•OGM 2 (announcement only) plays the message you recorded, and hangs up without letting the caller leave a message. This is useful for announcing information about an upcoming event. Be sure the announcement clearly states that the caller cannot leave a message. If the DTAM memory becomes full, it will automatically switch from OGM 1 to OGM 2 and play that message for any new calls.
| NOTE: | The maximum length for OGM 1 and OGM 2 is 32 seconds. | ||||
