telephone service provider.
Installation
Plug the telephone line cord
into your BS6312 wall socket.
Connect the Delta 40 line

the line socket on the back of
your Delta 40 marked “LINE”.
(Note: You do not have to
connect your telephone in
order for the Delta 40 to
record incoming messages).

power supply into the power
socket on the back of the Delta
40 marked as “~5V 50Hz”. Plug

RECORDING THE GREETING
Before using your new Delta 40,
you should record a greeting (the
announcement callers hear when your
answering system answers a call).
Two greetings can be recorded. If
you do not record a greeting, callers
hear a default greeting which says.
“the person you called is currently not
available, please leave your message
after the tone, thank you for calling.”
You can record two types of greetings,
one to use only one mailbox, or one
to direct callers to leave messages in
specic mailboxes. This is especially
useful for active families or small
businesses.
When recording the greeting you
should be about six inches from the
unit. This ensures the best recording
quality. Eliminate as much background
noise as possible.
Both types of greeting are recorded by
the following:
Prepare your greeting
Sample Single Mailbox Greet-
ing: “Hi, this is (use your name
here). I cannot answer the phone
right now, so please leave your
name, number and a brief mes-
sage after the tone, and I will
get back to you. Thank you for
calling”.
NOTE: You can direct callers to leave
messages in a specic mail-
box by having them press the
1.
desired mailbox (1-4) after the
greeting plays. If no mailbox is
selected, the incoming mes-
sages automatically go into
mailbox 1.
Note: The greeting must be two
seconds or longer to be valid.
