About Announcements
• You can record two different announcements one for normal answering
and one for when youve 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. Im unable
to answer your call right now. Please leave your name, number and a
message after the tone. The Announce Only pre-recorded
announcement says: Hello, Im unable to answer your call right now.
Please call again. Thank you.
• 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 Set Announce
Only , located in the Feature Summary chart later in this section, to change
your announcement selection.
