The hour will then be announced. ­ Repeat steps 2. and 3. for hours and minutes. ­ After the minutes are set, the exact time will be announced. Note: If no key is pressed within 8 seconds, the DAS 202 will return to normal mode. Playing the Current Time ­ Press the `STOP/TIME' key. The current time will be announced. Recording Outgoing Messages (OGM) ­ OGM1 should be a conventional message, requesting the caller to leave a message. Complete the following steps to record your OGM1 message: · Press and hold the `OGM1' key for approximately 2 seconds and release after you hear a long beep. The LED will indicate `A1', and then `0'. · At the end of the beep, speak in a clear voice directly into the microphone, which is located on the bottom right hand corner of the DAS 202. · When you have completed your OGM1 message, press `STOP/TIME'. · The LED will indicate `A1', and the OGM1 message will playback. · If you are satisfied with the message, proceed to record the OGM2 message. · If you are not satisfied with the message, repeat this process and re-record your message. The outgoing messages (OGM A1/A2) can be a maximum of 60 seconds (1 minute) in length. The maximum time available for recording incoming messages (ICM) is 40 minutes total. Each incoming message has a maximum record time of 60 seconds (1 minute) per message. During an incoming call the caller will receive a "beep" tone after 45 seconds to indicate that they have 15 seconds left to complete their message. After 60 seconds the answering machine will disconnect the line and hang-up even if the caller is still talking. Therefore, it is recommended that in your outgoing (OGM A1/A2) greeting message that you tell the caller that they only have 60 seconds (1 minute) in which to complete their message. ­ OGM2 should be an Answer-Only message. This is used when you prefer not to take messages and is automatically activated if the DAS 202's memory is full. To record an OGM2 message, follow the above instructions using the OGM2 button in place of the OGM1 button. 9 Unscrew the Battery Cover Remove the Battery Cover Insert 4 Fresh `AAA' Batteries as per the Diagram.
