Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device (TAD) Sequence You might choose to connect an additional answering machine. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls. The machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones.

PREPARATION AND SIMPLE USE Outgoing Message (OGM) of External TAD Timing is important in recording this message.
