Multi-User Digital Telephone Answering System
(430-0747) Remote Operation Faxback Doc. # 17568
You can operate the TAD from almost any touch-tone phone, or from a rotary
phone using a pocket tone-dialer (available at your local Radio Shack
store). The TAD's remote operation security code is preset to 747. You
can operate your TAD remotely with this code; however, we recommend that
you set your own code.
NOTES: When the memory is full, the TAD answers the call after two rings
and announces, "Memory is full."
To bypass the outgoing message and begin recording a message
immediately when you call the TAD from a remote phone, you can
press * on touch tone phones (or a pocket tone dialer if you use a
rotary phone) when the announcement begins. The TAD skips the rest
of the announcement, beeps once, and begins recording.
CHANGING THE REMOTE OPERATION SECURITY CODE
NOTES: You can set the security code to any number from 500 to 999.
Be sure to set each digit within 8 seconds. Otherwise, you must
start over from Step 1.
Do not use three identical digits (such as 999) for the security
code. Numbers like this are too easy for others to guess!
If AC powers fails and no battery is installed or if the backup
battery becomes weak, the remote operation security code
automatically resets to 747.
1. Press and hold CODE for about 2 seconds. The TAD beeps, and the first
digit of the preset code appears on the display.
2. Press SKIP or REPEAT to set the first digit, then press STOP. The TAD
beeps and the second digit flashes.
3. Press SKIP or REPEAT to set the second digit, then press STOP. The TAD
beeps and the third digit flashes.
4. Press SKIP or REPEAT to set the third digit, then press STOP. The TAD
beeps.
To see the new code, press and release CODE.
REMOTE ANSWER-ON
NOTE: You must record an outgoing message before you can remotely set the
TAD to answer calls.
Follow these steps to remotely set the TAD to answer calls.
1. Dial your phone number.
If the TAD is set to answer-off, it answers the call after 60 seconds
and announces, "Answer off."
2. Enter the remote operation security code within 8 seconds. The TAD
beeps.
NOTE: If you do not enter each digit of the security code within 8
seconds, the TAD hangs up.
3. Press #. The TAD beeps and announces, "Answer on."
4. You can hang up at this point and have the TAD answer calls, or you
can enter other remote command(s) (see "Using Remote Commands,
below").
USING REMOTE COMMANDS
To use remote commands, you must enter the remote operation security code
within 8 seconds after the TAD answers the call. After the TAD beeps once
to verify you entered the code correctly, you can enter the number(s) for
the function(s) you want the TAD to perform.
