All other messages will be recorded in Mailbox 1. About Announcements · You can record up to two different announcements -- one for normal answering and one for when you've set the system to play the announcement only. Use normal answering when you want the system to record callers' messages. Use Announce Only when you want to give information to callers without accepting messages. If you choose not to record an announcement, the system answers with a pre-recorded announcement. The normal answering pre-recorded announcement says: "Hello. Please leave a message after the tone. " The Announce Only pre-recorded announcement says: "We're sorry, messages to this number cannot be accepted. " By setting Announce Only to On or Off, you decide which announcement your callers will hear when the system answers a call (the system comes set for normal answering, with Announce Only turned off). See "Change Announce Only" on page 18 to change your announcement selection. · · · · 16 9357_book/wc_1ATT 7/6/01 4:10 PM Page 17 ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION AT THE BASE Select a feature setting Confirm/review feature setting Record outgoing announcement Delete outgoing announcement, messages Enter Answering System feature setup and choose a feature to set Turn Answering System on or off Record Your Announcement NOTE: If you have assigned different mailboxes to different people, be sure to tell callers in your announcement to press * 1, * 2, or * 3 while the announcement is playing to leave a message in the appropriate mailbox.
