Receiving a Call from a Remote Party
Operations for answering a call differ depending on the setting of the answer
mode.
The unit is set to manual answer mode under factory default settings.
Manual answer mode
When there is an incoming call, the Communication System rings. You need
to connect the call manually.
You can start connecting when you are ready.
Auto answer mode
The system automatically receives a call from a remote party and you can start
connecting. Although no operation is necessary to start, the picture on the local
site will be displayed on the remote site screen even if you are not ready to
begin.
• You cannot answer the call unless the power switch on the Communication System is
on.
• Make sure that the TV monitor is turned on.
For setting of the answer mode, see “Auto Answer” in the Answer setup menu
on page 67.
