Use the built-in answering system and voicemail
service
You can use your answering system and voicemail service together by setting your
answering system to answer before voicemail service answers as described below.
To learn how to program your voicemail settings, contact your telephone service
provider.
If you are on a call, or if the answering system is busy recording a message and
you receive another call, the second caller can leave a voicemail message.
Set your answering system to answer calls at least two rings earlier than your
voicemail service is set to answer. For example, if your voicemail service answers
after six rings, set your answering system to answer after four rings.
Some voicemail service providers may program the delay before answering calls in
seconds instead of rings. In this case, allow six seconds per ring when determining
the appropriate setting.
