REMOTE OPERATION OF ITAD

Remote operation allows you to control the functions of the ITAD when you are
away from the base, and call from an outside telephone line. The ITAD cannot be
accessed from another telephone on the same line. You can access many of the
ITAD functions from a remote location such as listening to messages, changing
recorded announcements, and recording memos.
Remote operation can only be accessed from a touch tone telephone. If the remote phone is
set to pulse dialing, switch it tone. If tone dialing is not available you will not be able to access
the ITAD.
Note: All function codes should be entered within 2 seconds in order to activate the Remote
Operation.
