Outgoing
messages
(OGMs)
An OGM is what callers hear when the machine
answers. The S2300 has two OGMs; it is supplied with
pre-recorded messages, but you can record your own
versions:
■
OGM1 — this invites callers to leave a message after
the tone. The default is
“Please leave a message after
the beep”
.
■
OGM2 — this simply asks callers to try later and does
not give them the opportunity to leave a message.
The default is
“Please call later”.
Each OGM can be between 3 seconds and 2 minutes
long. If you speak for less than 3 seconds, your message
will not be recorded.

To set the
number of
rings
The machine can answer calls after two to nine rings. If
you don’t set a number, it will answer after six rings.
If you check your messages remotely, you can set Toll
Saver — the machine will answer after two rings if
there are new messages; after five rings if there are no
new messages. So, if it hasn’t answered after two rings,
you can hang up to save the cost of the call.
When the machine is switched off, it will answer after
15 rings and play OGM2. You can switch it on using
remote operation (see page 26).
