VIP Alert Tone
The system lets you store up to ten phone
numbers in its VIP call list. Whenever some-
one calls from one of those ten numbers, if
you subscribe to Caller ID, the system will
sound an alert tone (single beep) in between
incoming phone rings to indicate that a VIP
call is coming in. This alert tone continues
until the call is answered. The system sounds
an alert tone (double beep) every 15 seconds
to remind the user that some VIP messages
in VIP mailboxes have not been reviewed.
To disable the VIP alert feature of incoming
call and new message, hold down VIP for 3
seconds and the display shows the current

• If the system's memory reaches its max-
imum capacity while a caller is leaving a
message, the system stops recording,
beeps and then hangs up. If the system
receives a call when its memory is full, it
answers after ten rings and plays "No
one is available to take your call", waits
for any remote operation commands,
then hangs up. The system cannot
record additional messages until you
delete at least some of the old ones
(See "Deleting Voice Messages" on
Page 5).
• If you want to record an OGM, memo or
two-way phone conversation when its
memory is full, the system announces
"Memory is full".
• Many local phone companies use calling
party control (CPC) to signal that the
caller has hung up. Your system can rec-
ognize a CPC signal and release the
line. If the system records phone com-
pany messages or dial tones, your local
phone company probably does not use
CPC.
