T HE TELEPHONE ANSWERING DEVICE
If you have purchased one of the models of fax equipped with a built-
in telephone answering device you can perform the same func-
tions as those performed by external telephone answering devices.
You can therefore:
• record outgoing messages which will be played automati-
cally when you're out, to request callers to leave a message or
call back later;
• record memos;
• listen to the outgoing messages;
• change the outgoing messages;
• record the messages left by callers when you're out, to ensure
that your calls do not get lost;
• listen to the messages and memos recorded;
• delete the messages and memos recorded;
• transfer messages to a remote telephone;
• control the TAD from a remote location.
The TAD's recording capacity depends on the size of the memory
available (14 minutes). The length of the messages is program-
mable and may be 30 or 60 seconds, see "To set the length of
memos and incoming messages".
T O TURN ON THE TAD
The answering machine may only be activated after record-
ing outgoing message 1. See "Outgoing messages and
memos", and, in particular, "To record outgoing message 1".
In addition, the fax must be set to "TAD/FAX" reception mode.
See the "To choose the reception mode" procedure of the "Re-
ception" section in the first part of the manual.
In "TAD/FAX" reception mode, the fax machine automatically pre-
pares to receive when it is called by another fax machine, to prevent
documents sent to you from getting lost.
note
In addition, to prevent subscribers from operating the TAD from a
remote location without your authorization (except to leave mes-
sages), access has been protected by a four-digit numeric code (set
by default to "1234") which you can change or delete at any time,
see "To change or delete the TAD access code " later in this
chapter.
