Calling Express II with TAD Enabled

To have the Express II answer the phone with a Tele-
phone Answering Device on the same line, call the
unit's telephone number and let the line ring once, then
hang up. Wait several seconds and then call back
again. The Express II will answer the line on the first
ring, bypassing your answering machine.
Explanation: The pattern of one ring, followed by a
second call (within 30 seconds), signals the Express II
to answer your incoming call, excluding the telephone
answering device.
NOTE: If the Express II unit shares the same telephone
line with a Telephone Answering Device, and during
certain time periods frequent incoming calls are ex-
pected on that line, then you may want to temporarily
disable the TAD feature. If you leave the TAD enabled,
it will not adversely affect normal operation, but if two
outside telephone calls are received within the same 30
second time window, the Express II unit will interpret
this pattern as a signal to answer the telephone. If this
occurs, press the ALARM/CANCEL key on the unit to
hang up.
