To configure Remote Message Retrieval function

Parent Previous Next

Remote Message Retrieval allows the user to dial in from a remote location in order to check for received voice messages. The user can manage voice mailbox remotely via DTMF tones. DTMF Detection function is supported by Fax Voip T.38 Modem. It should be noted that the Remote Message Retrieval functionality is implemented in the BVRP Classic Phone Tools program quite well and simply. For example for the implementation of this function in Venta Fax, the customer need to write special scripts that may not always be possible. Speaking frankly, we can also note some strangeness when using the Listening to all messages command (see below), but on the whole the function works very well.


1.     In the main window click <MENUS> button, then select Setup, then click Answering Machine Setup.



2.     In the General Setup window, on the Voice page click <Remote Msg. Retrieval> button.



3.     In the Remote Message Retrieval window enter your desired Access Code. This code serves as a pin, and will be required of you each time you dial in remotely to access your messages. It must be four digits long.

4.     Assign different values (i.e. phone keys) to each of the following functions: Message replay, Next message, Deleting a message, Listen to all messages.

5.     Click <OK>.

6.     To use this function, you should switch to Greeting and record mode for incoming calls (see in the To receive Incoming Fax & Voice Messages section of this chapter). Access Code must be entered at the time of listening the Answering Machine Greeting.
