Recording Tips

There are two audio sources to record from: the internal microphone
(located right above the MESSAGE switch) and the EXT input. The inter-
nal microphone is enabled when no plug is inserted into the EXT jack,
otherwise it is disabled. The internal microphone is provided mainly for
testing purpose.
The recording quality is much better with the EXT input which should be
connected to the headphone/line output of an external audio player
such as a CD player or an MP3 player.
The recording level greatly affects the sound quality. If the level is too
low, background noise will increase. If the level is too high, distortions
start to appear. Try recording at several different levels to obtain the
best sound quality.

Trouble Shooting Guide

1. There is no sound.
Press down the Speaker button and adjust the VOL dial. If sound can be
heard from the internal speaker, but not through the phone system,
make sure the audio patch cord is properly connected. If sound can not
be heard from the internal speaker, then the MESSAGE switch may have
been set incorrectly.
If the POWER light is blinking red, it means the unit has finished record-
ing but the RECORD button is still pressed down. Pop out the RECORD
button to return the unit to normal operation.
2. It plays the wrong message.
The MESSAGE switch is set incorrectly.
3. The sound quality is poor.
a. Wrong output impedance, change it by pushing in or popping
out the O/P button.
b. The message was recorded at an improper level - usually a level
that's too high. Try recording the message at a different level.
c. The internal microphone is provided mainly for testing purpose.
You should not expect good sound quality from it. Always use
the EXT input for best sound quality.
