Message Centre
(FAX-837MC only)
This section is for FAX-837MC. (If you have FAX-817/827, please
see chapter 8 for your remote fax options.)

Message Centre Mode

Message Centre Mode allows you to store incoming fax and voice
messages in a flexible memory. The memory stores 15 minutes of
voice messages, or up to 20 pages of fax messages. The actual
number of pages stored in memory varies depending on the
content and the resolution used. Memory is shared between fax
and voice messages, which are stored on a "first-come,
first-served" basis. Any voice or fax message can be retrieved
remotely.
You must record an outgoing message in order to use the
Message Centre Mode. (See Recording the Message Centre's
Outgoing Message (TAD MESSAGE) on page 9-3.)
