TAD-517  (430-0756)          Remote Operation          Faxback Doc. # 6251

While you are away from your home or office, you can use a touch-tone
phone, or a rotary phone and pocket tone dialer (such as Cat. No. 43-146,
to do any of the following:

  Set the TAD to start or stop answering call.
  
  Play your messages

  Record a new outgoing message.

REMOTE ANSWER-ON

You can call the TAD from a remote location and set it to answer calls if:

    The cassette tape is installed and you have recorded an outgoing
    message.

    The TAD is connected to AC power.

Follow these steps to set the TAD to answer a call from a remote location.

  1.  Dial your phone number.  After about 10 rings, the TAD answers the
      call and beeps.

NOTE:  If the TAD answers after the second or fourth ring, it is 
       already set to answer calls.

  2.  Enter your remote operation security code within 8 seconds.

NOTE:  Wait until the TAD finishes beeping before entering the code.

  3.  Hang up or use any of the remote control commands.

USING REMOTE CONTROL COMMANDS

Follow these steps to operate the TAD from a remote phone.

NOTE:  Unless you enter remote control command 2 (ANSWER OFF), the TAD
       resets itself to answer calls after remote operation.

  1.  Dial your phone number.

  2.  After the outgoing message plays, the TAD beeps continually while it
      fast-forwards through the incoming messages, then it beeps once.
      Enter the remote operation security code within 8 seconds.  Hold
      down each button at least 2 seconds.

NOTE:  If you do not correctly enter the remote operation security code
       within 8 second, the TAD disconnects the call.

                 If the tape is full when you call the TAD, the TAD
                 answers after two rings.  Then it sounds eight beeps
                 instead of the outgoing message.  Enter the remote
                 security code within 8 seconds.

  3.  After the TAD beeps, enter a remote command by pressing the number
      for the desired function.

After each operation the TAD beeps.  To end remote operation, hang up the
phone.

NOTES:  If you do not enter a command within 8 seconds after a command
        prompt, the TAD sounds a beep and hangs up.

                  If you hang up while the TAD plays back messages, the
                  TAD might not recognize that you hung up.  If someone
                  calls while the TAD continues to play the new messages,
                  the caller hears a busy signal.

REMOTE CONTROL COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS

Command Key          Command                     Description

   1           Record Outgoing Message    Press 1 to record a new out-
                                          going message.  The TAD
                                          beeps while it rewinds to
                                          the outgoing position.
                                          Begin your new outgoing
                                          message.  When you finish
                                          your outgoing message, press
                                          1 again to end the re-
                                          cording.  The TAD replays
                                          your new outgoing message.

   2           Remote Answer Off          Before you listen to mess-
                                          ages, press 2 to set the TAD
                                          to not answer incoming
                                          calls.  The TAD beeps, dis-
                                          connects the call, and turns
                                          off.

               Erase Messages             After you listen to your in-
                                          coming messages, press 2 to
                                          have the TAD record new
                                          messages over the old ones.
                                          The TAD beeps twice and
                                          resets itself.

   3           Remote Play                Press 3 to play the incoming
                                          messages.  The TAD sounds
                                          tones while it fast-forwards
                                          the tape.  Then it plays
                                          back your incoming messages.

TOLL SAVER

Toll Saver lets you avoid unnecessary toll charges when calling long
distance to check your messages.  After the TAD records a message, it
answers after two rings.  If there are no messages recorded on the tape,
the TAD answers after four rings.

NOTE:  The TAD must be set to answer calls.

If you hear more than two rings, you know there are no messages.  You can
hang up so you will not be charged for the call.
