NOTE: If “15” is entered to bypass an answering
machine and a TeleCommand Phone Module is
included in the system, you should note the
following:
When calling in from an off-premises phone,
the user should make the initial call, allow 1 or
2 rings only, then hang up, then call again.
The phone module will now seize the line,
and 2 long tones sound, followed by the usual
voice prompt for the access code. If this
procedure is not followed, phone module
operation will not be possible.
