SAFETY INFORMATION  
FOR YOUR SAFETY, PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:-  
• Never install telephone wiring during lightning storm.  
• Do not use your DTAM unit near water or when wet.  
• Do not take apart or remove the screws - 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 DTAM conforms to Australian and 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 on the bottom of the DTAM.  
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, your  
phone(s) might not ring and your DTAM might not answer. If  
ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.  
NOTE:  
You must not connect the DTAM to any of the following:  
Coin operated systems  
Party-line systems  
Most electronic key phone systems

INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations on the purchase of your 7000A Digital  
Telephone Answering Machine, (DTAM).  
This product has been designed especially for the Australian  
and New Zealand market. It is guaranteed to provide you with  
reliability, long life and outstanding performance.  
Digital 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, skip forward, backward or play only new messages.

PREPARATION  
RECORDING THE OUTGOING MESSAGES  
Before you can set the DTAM to answer calls and record  
messages, you must record the outgoing message (OGM) the  
caller hears when the DTAM answers a call. The DTAM lets you  
record two separate messages and it operates differently based  
on which message you select (see "Setting the DTAM to Answer  
Calls" on Page 25).  
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. Be sure the announcement clearly  
states that the caller cannot leave a message. If the DTAM  
memory becomes full, it will automatically switch from  
OGM 1 to OGM 2 and play that message for any new calls.  
NOTE:  
The maximum length for OGM 1 and OGM 2 is 60 seconds.  
The display counts the recording time.  
Recording the Outgoing Messages  
1. To record the OGM 1 message,  
hold down OGM 1 until  
the DTAM beeps and  
(announcement 1) appears.  
20  
PREPARATION  
NOTE:  
Do not tell the callers that you are not home. Instead, say that  
you cannot come to the phone right now.  
2. Speak in a normal voice about 20cm (8 inches) away from the  
microphone (located on the front of the DTAM). If you record  
the OGM 1 message, ask for the caller’s name, phone number  
and message.  
3. When you finish recording,  
press  
. The DTAM  
automatically plays back  
the outgoing message.  
To record an OGM 2 message,  
hold down OGM 2 until the  
DTAM beeps and  
(Announcement 2) appears.  
Repeat steps 2 and 3.  
NOTE:  
If no outgoing OGM1 is recorded when you press OGM 1 , the  
DTAM announces "You have no announcement one" and sounds  
four beeps.  
If no outgoing OGM2 is recorded when you press OGM 2 , the  
DTAM announces "You have no announcement two" and sounds  
four beeps.  
21  
PREPARATION  
To play back your outgoing OGM 1 message at any time,  
press OGM 1 , appears, the DTAM beeps and the  
outgoing message plays.  
To play back your outgoing OGM 2 message at any time,  
press OGM 2 ,  
appears, the DTAM beeps and the  
announcement only message plays.  
22  
PREPARATION  
SETTING THE NUMBER OF RINGS  
The ring select switch on the back of the DTAM controls how  
long the DTAM waits before it answers a call. Slide the switch  
to the desired position.  
2 The DTAM answers after two rings.  
4 The DTAM answers after four rings.  
7 The DTAM answers after seven rings.  
T.S. (Toll Saver) - If there are new messages, the DTAM  
answers after two rings. Otherwise, the DTAM answers after  
four rings. This helps you avoid unnecessary toll charges when  
calling by long distance to check your messages. If you hear  
more than two rings, you know you can hang up because the  
DTAM has no new messages.  
NOTE:  
When the memory is full the DTAM answers the call and  
plays OGM2 (the announce only message).

beeps, and plays "Thank you for your call", then hangs up.  
The DTAM hangs up and resets to answer the next call when:  
• The caller hangs up.  
• The maximum message length (60 seconds) is reached.  
• There are more than 8 seconds of silence.  
If the DTAM’s memory is full (  
appears), it will answer  
the call after 3 rings then play the announcement only  
message (OGM2).
