Personal Answering Machine

A personal answering machine is used to answer all the calls that ring on the

lines at a certain extension (Figure 5-6). It is useful for the following situations:

■

When you don’t want to dedicate an extension to an answering

machine

When the extension receives a lot of intercom calls

■

When outside calls come through a receptionist and are transferred to

the extension

■ When an extension has a private line

To retrieve messages:

■

Go to the machine to manually retrieve messages.

■

From inside the system, make an intercom call to the extension. When

the machine answers, dial the retrieval code.

■ From outside the system, call in and have someone transfer you to the

extension. When the machine answers, dial the message retrieval

code. Or, call in when no one will answer before the answering

machine does.
