Using the Answering Machine from a
Remote Phone
You donÕt need to be at the machineÕs control panel to operate the answering machine. If
you have access to a Touch-Tone phone, you can operate many features, such as message
playback, no matter where you are.
To operate your machine from a remote phone, you need to enter a five-character
password. The remote password is preset at the factory to Ò#139#Ó but you can change it
to any number you want. For more information, see page 5.14.
Accessing the Machine
Ã
A pulse line works only if you can
switch the phone to tone dialing. If you
can, switch it to tone after you dial the
fax number but before entering any
remote codes.

When the machine
answers with the greeting
message, enter the
remote password #139#,
or whatever new
password you have
chosen.
When the correct
password is recognized
by the machine, you hear
two short beeps (the
confirmation signal).

If the machine doesnÕt immediately
respond to a remote command, try to
enter the code again. If the machine still
has difficulty recognizing the
command, try calling from another
phone.
The machine might not respond if the
tones produced by the remote
telephone are too short in duration.
Press and hold each key for at least a
second. Some phones only emit a short
tone with each key press. Try to call
from a phone that emits a tone for as
long as you hold the key.

Enter the remote
command that
corresponds to the
operation you want to
perform.
When the specified
operation is complete,
you hear a short beep.
