Recording outgoing message (OGM) on an external TAD
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up
the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
1
Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message.
(This allows the fax machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones
of automatic transmissions before they stop.)
2
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
3
End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code
for people sending manual faxes. For example:
“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing
51 and Start.”
When you leave your machine set in TAD mode, all calls will be
answered by the externally connected telephone answering device,
and fax calls will be received automatically provided they come from
a machine that sends standard Calling tones (CNG).
.
We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second
silence because the fax machine cannot hear fax tones over a
resonant or loud voice. You may try omitting this pause, but if the
fax machine has trouble receiving, then you must rerecord the
OGM to include it.
