Answering System Operation
Recording Your Outgoing Messages
Your Answering System provides one PRIMARY MAILBOX and four individual MAILBOXES (1, 2, 3
and 4) which can receive their own Incoming Messages (OGM). Before using your Answering
System, it is suggested that you record an Outgoing Message (OGM). This is the announcement
callers will hear when the system answers a call.
A pre-recorded system announcement "Please record your message after the beep" is available if
you choose not to record your own OGM.

It is recommended that you record an OGM on your PRIMRY MAILBOX instructing a caller to leave
an ICM in one of the four mailboxes. If the caller is using a Touchtone telephone, this will enable
the caller to record an ICM directly into one of the four mailboxes by dialing "11" for MAILBOX 1, "22"
for MAILBOX 2, "33" for MAILBOX 3, "44" for MAILBOX 4.
Example of a Primary OGM: "Hello, please leave a message after the tone, or if you are using a
Touchtone telephone, please Dial 11 for Beth, Dial 22 for Jenny, Dial 33 for Jonathan, or Dial 44 for
Esson."
