To Use
Go to the machine to manually play back messages.
From any system extension, make an intercom call to the answering
machine extension. When the machine answers, dial its message retrieval
code.
From outside the system, call in on any line assigned to the machine.
When the machine answers, dial its message retrieval code.
To Program
1. If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign
all the lines to extension X that you want the answering machine to cover.
If extension X is a pooled extension, use Line Extension Assignment
(#314) to assign all the pools to extension X that you want the answering
machine to cover. Also, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign any
individual lines to extension X that you want the answering machine to
cover.
2. Set Line Ringing for all lines and pools assigned to extension X to
Immediate Ring.
3. Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night
Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
4. Adjust the answering machine to answer according to your needs. For
example, set the machine to answer on the fourth ring during the day so
someone has a chance to pick up the call.
