3. Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502),
Night Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension
(#505).
4. Adjust the answering machine to answer according to your needs. For
example, set the machine to answer on the fourth ring during the day so
someone has a chance to pick up the call.
Multiple Answering Machines
If a single answering machine cannot handle all your calls, you can set up two or
more machines at different extensions
unanswered. If one answering machine is busy, a second call will be answered by
the second machine. A setup such as this might be used by a movie theater to
announce movie times to people calling for information.
Figure 4-2. Multiple Answering Machines
To Use
Go to the machines to manually play back messages.
From any system extension, make an intercom call to an answering
machine extension. When the machine answers, dial its message retrieval
code.
From outside the system, call in on any line assigned to the machine.
When the machine answers, dial its message retrieval code. Note,
however, when calling from outside, you can retrieve messages only from
the first machine that answers.
To Program
1. If your system is configured for Hybrid mode, use Line Access Mode (#313)
to change extensions X and Y from Pooled to Key.
