SAFETY INFORMATION
FOR YOUR SAFETY, PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:-
• Never install telephone wiring during lightning storm.
• Do not use your 7500AI unit near water or when wet.
• Do not take apart or remove the screws (except battery
cover screw) - there are no serviceable parts inside.
• Make sure the line cord and AC Adaptor do not cause
a trip hazard.
READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION
Your 7500AI conforms to Australian or New Zealand
Telecommunications Authority Standards and you can connect it
to most telephone lines. However, each device you connect to
the phone line draws power from the phone line. We refer to
this power draw as the device’s Ringer Equivalence Number, or
REN. This number is on the label under the 7500AI.
If you are using more than one phone or other device on the
line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than three(3),
your phone(s) may not ring and your 7500AI may not answer.
If ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.
NOTE: You must not connect your 7500AI to any of the following:
•
•
•
Coin operated systems
Party-line systems
Most electronic key phone systems

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your 7500AI Digital
Telephone Answering Machine (7500AI) with Caller ID Display.
This product has been designed especially for the Australian or
New Zealand market. It is guaranteed to provide you with
reliability, long life and outstanding performance.
The 7500AI is built with a wide screen for easy viewing of caller
identification. It displays the caller’s details (name* and
telephone number) the time and date the call came through,
and an indicator if the call came with a message.
Digital Answering Machine means all messages are stored on a
computer chip - there are no tape mechanisms to wear out and
no tapes to bother with. This gives you capabilities that tape-
based answering machines don’t have. For example, you can
delete individual messages or play only new messages.
NOTE: To use the Caller ID feature you must first subscribe to this service from your
telephone service provider.
* Caller’s name will only appear if it is sent by Telstra or your telephone service
provider.

INSTALLATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
Select a location that is near both a telephone socket and an AC outlet.
CONNECTING THE 7500AI TO THE TELEPHONE LINE
To connect the 7500AI to the phone line, plug one end of the supplied
modular cord into the jack on the back of the 7500AI labelled “line”.
Then plug the cord’s other end into a telephone socket.
If you wish to connect both the 7500AI and a telephone to the telephone line,
simply use the two way splitter supplied. Plug the splitter into the telephone
wall socket then plug the 7500AI into one side of the splitter and the phone
into the other side.

labelled “AC 9V 400mA”.

INSTALLATION
BACKUP BATTERY
If the power fails or you unplug the 7500AI, a 9V backup battery would save
the messages and the settings for the day, time and security code. We
recommend you use an alkaline battery.
Disconnect the telephone line and power line cords before replacing the battery.
Always use a new 9V battery for optimum performance.
Follow these steps to install the backup battery.
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to
remove the screw on the
compartment cover.
2. Push down the latch to release
the battery compartment cover.
3. Snap the battery’s contacts firmly to the
battery connector, then
place the battery into the compartment.
4. Replace the cover and secure it with the
screw.
Dispose of old battery promptly and properly.

SETTING UP
NUMBER OF RINGS
The 7500AI can be set to 2, 4 or 7 rings
before it plays the OGM and receives the
call. To set the ringer, move the ringer
select switch to the desired position.
TS (TOLL SAVER)
The 7500AI has New Message Detection to avoid unnecessary toll charges
when calling long distance to check your messages. To use this feature set the
ringer select to TS. If there are new messages, the 7500AI will answer after 2
rings, otherwise it will answer after 4 rings. Thus, when checking messages
you can hang up after 2 rings because the 7500AI has no new messages.
OUTGOING MESSAGES (OGM)
The 7500AI will not receive calls until at least one of the outgoing messages
has been recorded.
•
OGM 1 plays the message you recorded, and lets the caller leave a
message of up to 60 seconds.
•
OGM 2 (announcement only) plays the message you recorded, and
hangs up without letting the caller leave a message. This is useful for
announcing information about an upcoming event.
NOTE: Be sure the announcement clearly states that the caller cannot leave a message.
If the 7500AI memory becomes full, it will automatically switch from OGM 1 to
OGM 2 and play that message for any new calls.

BASIC OPERATION
USING CALL BREAKTHROUGH (CBT)
If you screen call, but want to make sure that you don’t miss calls from
important people (like members of the family), you can provide these people
with your CBT code. See code encoded while Setting CBT Code on
page 15-16.
CBT Alert
When a caller enters the CBT code, the 7500AI alerts you with loud beeps for
35 seconds. Then the 7500AI sounds two beeps every two seconds for 30
seconds, and one short beep every second for the last 5 seconds. To answer
the call, pick up the handset. If you do not answer, the caller can leave a
message after the outgoing message plays and a long beep sounds.
To use the CBT code in a call:
1. Call your telephone number
2. Once the OGM starts playing, enter the CBT code using the caller’s
telephone keypad then the VIP alert will be heard on your 7500AI.
Changing the CBT Code
The CBT code is preset to 168, but you can change it by following the steps in
Setting CBT the Code on page 15-16 of this owner’s manual.
NOTE: Be sure to set each digit within 8 seconds. Otherwise, you must start over from
Step 1.
