ALL DIGITAL RECORDING
Greetings and incoming messages are recorded
on a digital chip, eliminating mechanical
components and increasing reliability. The
TA-111 allows 10 minutes of combined recording
time for greetings, incoming messages and
recorded memos.
Your digital answering machine provides you
with the following advantages:
1. Reliability. There are no moving parts to
break. The use of electronic components
effectively increases the life of your machine.
2. Operational Ease. There is no tape to rewind
or entangle. You no longer have to worry
about replacing worn or damaged parts.
NOTE:
νν
νν
νThe audio quality of the digitally recorded greeting
and incoming messages may be subtly different than
those recorded on microcassette.

effectively and efficiently. Digital technology
provides you with the following user
conveniences:
νν
νν

νν
νν
νSkip & Repeat: During playback of
messages, skip and repeat messages for
greater playback control at the machine or
remotely.
νν
νν
νInstant AccessTM to Messages: All messages
are recorded digitally and therefore can be

day that your messages were recorded. Your

this information.

after playback at the machine or during remote
operation.

Turn the TA-111 over and remove the
battery cover.
Install a 9V alkaline battery. Make sure
the battery is connected correctly.
Replace the cover.
TWO-LINE
INSTALLATION
Two-line installations may require a two-line
T-Adapter for your machine to operate
correctly. The T-Adapter allows you to connect
your machine to Line 1 or Line 2. The TA-111
will only answer one line at a time.
MULTI-LINE
INSTALLATION
Installations with more than two lines, such as
a business phone system, may require a
separate RJ11 jack for answering machines.
Please contact your telephone equipment
provider for additional information.
You can use the TA-111 as an extension phone
on a business phone system, but some
systems will require that you install an A+A1
adapter to light the IN-USE INDICATOR on the
receptionist’s console. Please contact your
telephone equipment provider for additional
information.
CLEANING
THE TA-111
CAUTION: Disconnect the TA-111 from the
power outlet before cleaning.
Clean the plastic cabinet with a clean soft cloth
only. Do not use excess water or cleaning liquid
of any kind.
Recorded messages are cut off.
The TA-111 is designed to disconnect from the line after a caller stops talking. Calls may be cut
off if a 5 second pause is detected, if the caller does not speak loud enough or if a message is
less than two seconds.
The TA-111 does not respond when you enter your remote access code while the greeting is
playing.
Try re-entering the correct code after the beep. Press and hold each access code key for two
seconds.
Between messages there is an operator recording or a beep and dial tone.
The caller has hung up without leaving a message. A shorter greeting will reduce the frequency
of these recordings.
You have more than one telephone number and are experiencing difficulty.
See MULTI-LINE INSTALLATION.
There is no sound during playback.
Check and adjust the
VOLUME CONTROL .
The unit does not automatically stop playing the greeting or recording a message when an
extension phone is picked up.
Briefly press and release the
HOOK-SWITCH on the extension phone.
The unit is not responding when keys are pressed.
The TA-111 has approximately a 5 second initialization process. Once the unit is plugged in, the
unit requires 5 seconds to run its internal diagnostic tests. The MESSAGE INDICATOR will flash
when the unit is ready for operation.
After recording a new greeting from remote operation, the unit does not respond.
After you record your new greeting, you must press
3 again on your keypad to end the recording.
If
3 is not pressed, the unit will suspend remote operation access for 13 minutes. You will be
able to retrieve your messages after 13 minutes.
A greeting was recorded but the default greeting plays.
Check the length of the recorded greeting. In order for the TA-111 to accept a greeting, it must be
at least two seconds in length or the unit will default to the pre-recorded greeting.
After several attempts the TA-111 will not operate properly.
To reset the TA-111, unplug the
AC ADAPTER PLUG from the back of the TA-111 for 10 seconds
and remove the battery (if one is installed). The greeting, incoming messages and time/day stamp
will be lost. Re-record the greeting and set the time and day.
