AT&T 1782 Answering Machine

AT&T 1782 2-line digital answering system provides you with the benefits of digital operation, including 22 minutes of digital recording capacity. It has 99-name/ number call history, two voice mailboxes, and can answer on one line while recording on another. This answering system lets you record up to four different announcements. You can assign the same announcement to be presented on both lines, or you can choose different announcements for each line. This system has been designed with your convenience in mind, offering you many features, which you can access using the two "softkeys". By pressing the softkey below the underlined label indicated on the display screen, you select that operation.

The three-digit remote access code allows you to access features and functions of the answering system from a touch-tone phone. When a caller enters the priority call code from a touch-tone phone, the system beeps loudly to alert you that you have a priority call. You'll need to provide select callers with the priority call code in order for them to use this feature. The remote access code and priority call code are the same for both lines. When you subscribe to Caller ID service, the Call Match feature allows you to record personalized (caller-specific) outgoing announcements that can be played to specific callers. Additionally, you can record announcements that can be heard locally through your system - talking Caller ID - when a call is received from a number you have specified. You can record personalized announcements to be played from the speaker at the base each time a call is received from a telephone number you program. You can program up to 10 talking Caller ID announcements for 10 different phone numbers.

This product is designed to store and display information about incoming telephone calls. For this feature to work, the unit must be used with caller identification service provided by your local telephone company. This product can provide information only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller identification service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment. When you use this product with Caller ID service, you can see who's calling before you answer the phone. If you subscribe to Caller ID with Call Waiting, a combined service available through many local telephone companies, you can see who's trying to reach you even when you're on another call. In addition to the call information displays, this system can be set to announce the telephone number and line number (1 or 2) of incoming Caller ID calls.
