Multi-User Digital Telephone Answering System (430-0747) Remote Operation Faxback Doc. # 17568 You can operate the TAD from almost any touch-tone phone, or from a rotary phone using a pocket tone-dialer (available at your local Radio Shack store). The TAD's remote operation security code is preset to 747. You can operate your TAD remotely with this code; however, we recommend that you set your own code. NOTES: When the memory is full, the TAD answers the call after two rings and announces, "Memory is full." To bypass the outgoing message and begin recording a message immediately when you call the TAD from a remote phone, you can press * on touch tone phones (or a pocket tone dialer if you use a rotary phone) when the announcement begins. The TAD skips the rest of the announcement, beeps once, and begins recording. CHANGING THE REMOTE OPERATION SECURITY CODE NOTES: You can set the security code to any number from 500 to 999. Be sure to set each digit within 8 seconds. Otherwise, you must start over from Step 1. Do not use three identical digits (such as 999) for the security code. Numbers like this are too easy for others to guess! If AC powers fails and no battery is installed or if the backup battery becomes weak, the remote operation security code automatically resets to 747. 1. Press and hold CODE for about 2 seconds. The TAD beeps, and the first digit of the preset code appears on the display. 2. Press SKIP or REPEAT to set the first digit, then press STOP. The TAD beeps and the second digit flashes. 3. Press SKIP or REPEAT to set the second digit, then press STOP. The TAD beeps and the third digit flashes. 4. Press SKIP or REPEAT to set the third digit, then press STOP. The TAD beeps. To see the new code, press and release CODE. REMOTE ANSWER-ON NOTE: You must record an outgoing message before you can remotely set the TAD to answer calls. Follow these steps to remotely set the TAD to answer calls. 1. Dial your phone number. If the TAD is set to answer-off, it answers the call after 60 seconds and announces, "Answer off." 2. Enter the remote operation security code within 8 seconds. The TAD beeps. NOTE: If you do not enter each digit of the security code within 8 seconds, the TAD hangs up. 3. Press #. The TAD beeps and announces, "Answer on." 4. You can hang up at this point and have the TAD answer calls, or you can enter other remote command(s) (see "Using Remote Commands, below"). USING REMOTE COMMANDS To use remote commands, you must enter the remote operation security code within 8 seconds after the TAD answers the call. After the TAD beeps once to verify you entered the code correctly, you can enter the number(s) for the function(s) you want the TAD to perform.
