Making telephone calls
trueCall doesn’t change the way you make outgoing calls, but it
keeps a log of the numbers you called, the time and date, and the
call duration. You can view this information at your Internet Control
Panel.
trueCall takes messages for you
As well as protecting you from unwanted calls, trueCall’s Message
Manager takes messages for you while you are out (or if you are in
but don’t want to be disturbed!).
Message Manager has been designed with a number of advanced
privacy features, making it one of the most secure answering
machines available.
Accessing your messages
Message Manager lets you know that you have new messages
waiting by flashing trueCall’s red LEDs. The number of flashes tells
you how many new messages and missed calls you have.
There are three ways to play back your messages -
•
Playback from your telephone handset
- Pick up your
telephone. When you hear the dial tone press Zap Star (
#
).
Message Manager will then play back your messages. It will give
you detailed information about the message - the exact time and
date that it was left, and the caller’s telephone number (if
available). You can also ring back the caller at the touch of a
button.
•
Quick playback through the speaker
- Just press trueCall's
centre button, and Message Manager will play back your
messages through its speaker. Press the left button to save the
message, or the right button to delete the message.
•
Checking your messages when you are away from home
-
When you are away from home just dial in, and when trueCall
answers your call, press Star (
). Message Manager will ask for
your PIN, and then play back your messages. trueCall comes
already set up with a PIN - this is the last four digits of the serial
number printed on the underside of the unit. You can change your
PIN at any time (see the trueCall Reference Guide, page 19).
