Note: When FaxAbility or Fax Duet (distinctive ring) is used, the
answering machine may be connected to any extension of the same line.
Important: In New Zealand, not all standard telephones and answering
machines will respond to incoming ringing when connected to the extension
socket of the equipment.
Changing the outgoing message
The outgoing message (OGM) of your answering machine should be
changed to inform callers who want to send a fax to press their Start key. For
example, your message might go as follows:
"Hello. You’ve reached the ABC company. No one is available to take your
call right now. Please leave a message after the beep or press your facsimile
Start key to send a fax. Thank you for calling."
Comments:
•• It is advisable to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it is too
long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic dialling.
•• If your outgoing message must be longer than 10 seconds, leave a pause of
about four seconds at the beginning of the message. This will give your fax a
chance to detect fax tones sent when automatic dialling is used.
