FEATURES

Your RadioShack TAD-1024 Digital

Telephone Answering System with

Dual-Announcements is a high-quality

telephone answering device which you

can also control remotely from any

touch-tone phone. (With an optional

pocket tone dialer, you can even use it

from a rotary phone.)

Digital means the TAD stores all mes-

sages on a computer chip — there are

no tape mechanisms to wear out and no

tapes to bother with. This gives you ca-

pabilities that tape-based answering ma-

chines don’t have. For example, you can

delete individual messages.

The TAD-1024’s 14-minute memory ca-

pacity lets you store a lot of messages.

And its unique, space-saving design

makes it ideal for any office or night-

stand.

Your TAD’s features include:

Dual Out

oin

Messa

e Capacit

—

lets you choose between playing an out-

going message then recording the call-

er’s message, or just playing an

announcement without recording a mes-

sage. And, when the TAD’s memory is

full, it switches automatically to just play-

ing an announcement.

Two-Wa

both sides of your phone conversation.

Voice Time/Da

portant call when the caller enters a

preset code during the outgoing mes-

sage.

Memor

stored in memory in case of a power fail-

ure.

READ THIS BEFORE

INSTALLATION

Your TAD conforms to federal regula-

tions, and you can connect it to most

telephone lines. However, each device

you connect to the phone line draws

power from the phone line. We refer to

this power draw is the device’s

ringer

equivalence number

, or REN. The REN

is on the label on the bottom of the TAD.

If you are using more than one phone or

other device on the line, add up all the

RENs. If the total is more than five (or

three in rural areas), your phone(s)

might not ring and your TAD might not

answer. If ringer operation is impaired,

remove a device from the line.

FCC STATEMENT

Your TAD complies with Part 68 of

FCC

Rules

. You must, upon request, provide

the FCC Registration Number and the

REN to your phone company. Both num-

bers are on the label on the bottom of the

TAD.

You must not connect the TAD to any of

the following:

• Coin-operated systems

• Party-line systems

• Most electronic key phone systems

INSTALLATION

SELECTING A LOCATION

Select a location that is near both a mod-

ular telephone jack and an AC outlet.

Your TAD connects directly to a modu-

lar phone line jack. If the phone line jack

is not a modular jack, you must update

the wiring. You can convert the wiring

yourself, using jacks and adapters avail-

able at your local RadioShack store. Or,

you can let the phone company update

the wiring for you. The USOC number of

the jack to be installed is RJ11C.

CONNECTING TO THE

TELEPHONE LINE

To connect the TAD to the phone line,

plug one end of the supplied modular

cord into the TEL. LINE jack on the back

of the TAD. Then plug the cord’s other

end into a modular phone line jack.

You can also connect a telephone to the

TEL. jack on the back of the TAD using a

second modular phone cord (not sup-

plied).

CONNECTING POWER

Insert the supplied adapter’s barrel plug

into the DC 9V jack on the back of the

TAD. Then plug the adapter’s other end

into a standard AC outlet.

TEL. LINE Jack

TEL. Jack

DC 9V Jack

43-784.fm Page 6 Monday, August 16, 1999 7:47 AM

Caution: The supplied adapter supplies

9 volts AC, delivers at least 400 milli-

amps, and has a plug which properly fits

the TAD’s DC 9V jack. Using an adapter

that does not meet these specifications

might damage the TAD or the adapter.

When you first connect power, the TAD

beeps once and the message counter

counts up from 0 to 10. Then the TAD

beeps. A1, A2, Lo, CL and 0alternately

appear to indicate that no outgoing mes-

sages are recorded, and the day/time

stamp is not set.

INSTALLING THE

BACKUP BATTERY

The TAD requires AC power to operate.

However, if AC power fails or you unplug

the TAD-1024, a 9V backup battery (not

supplied) saves the messages and the

settings for the day, time, and security

code. We recommend you use an alka-

line battery, such as RadioShack Cat.

No. 23-553.

Caution: Always use a fresh battery of

the required size and recommended

type.

Follow these steps to install the backup

battery.

1. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to lift

the battery compartment cover.

2. Snap the battery’s contacts firmly to

the battery connector, then place

the battery into the compartment.

3. Replace the cover.

When the battery is low and needs re-

placing, Lo appears on the display. Be

sure the AC adapter’s cord is plugged in

so you do not lose the TAD’s stored in-

formation, then replace the battery. After

the battery is installed, A1, A2, CL, and

0alternately appear.

Caution: Dispose of old batteries

promptly and properly.

43-784.fm Page 7 Monday, August 16, 1999 7:47 AM

PREPARATION

SETTING THE DAY

AND TIME

The TAD records the day and time of the

call with each phone message. Follow

these steps to set the current day and

time.

Notes:

• To avoid having to reset the time if

AC power is lost, we recommend

you install a backup battery before

you set the day and time.

• If you do not complete each step

within 8 seconds, the TAD stops

setting and announces the day and

time. Start again from Step 1.

1. Hold down STOP/TIME SET until the

TAD announces, “Sunday.” CL

(clock) then 01 appears on the dis-

play.

Note: Adjust VOLUME on the right

side of the TAD to the desired lis-

tening level.

2. To change the day of the week, re-

peatedly press MEMO/REPEAT to

move backward or CODE/SKIP to

move forward until the TAD an-

nounces the desired day of the

week.

3. Press

STOP/TIME SET. The TAD an-

nounces the preset hour.

4. To change the hour, repeatedly

press

MEMO/REPEAT

to move back-

ward or CODE/SKIP to move forward

to the desired hour.

5. Press STOP/TIME SET. The TAD an-

nounces the preset minute.

6. To change the minutes, hold down

MEMO/REPEAT to move backward

or CODE/SKIP to move forward to

the desired minute.

7. Press STOP/TIME SET to confirm the

settings. The TAD announces the

day and time and CL disappears.

To check the current day/time at any

time, press STOP/TIME SET.

RECORDING THE

OUTGOING MESSAGES

Before you can set the TAD to answer

calls and record messages, you must

record the outgoing message (OGM) the

caller hears when the TAD answers a

call. The TAD-1024 lets you record two

separate messages and it operates dif-

ferently based on which message you

select (see “Setting the TAD to Answer

Calls” on Page 11).

•OGM 1 plays the message you re-

corded, and lets the caller leave a

message of up to 60 seconds.

•OGM 2 (announcement only) plays

the message you recorded, but

hangs up without letting the caller

leave a message. This is useful for

announcing information about an

upcoming event. Be sure the

announcement clearly states that

the caller cannot leave a message.

If the TAD-1024’s memory

becomes full, it will automatically

switch from OGM 1 to OGM 2 and

play that message for any new

calls.

Note: The maximum length for each out-

going message is 32 seconds. As you

record, the display counts down the re-

maining recording time.

Recording the Outgoing

Messages

1. To record an OGM 1 message, hold

down OGM 1 until the TAD beeps

and

A1 (Announcement 1) appears.

To record an OGM 2 message, hold

down OGM 2 until the TAD beeps

and

A2 (Announcement 2) appears.

2. Speak in a normal voice about 8

inches away from the microphone

(located on the front of the TAD). If

you recording the OGM 1 message,

ask for the caller’s name, phone

number, and message.

43-784.fm Page 9 Monday, August 16, 1999 7:47 AM

Important: Do not tell callers that

you are not home. Instead, say that

you cannot come to the phone right

now.

3. When you finish recording, press

STOP/TIME SET. The TAD automati-

cally plays back the outgoing mes-

sage.

To play back your outgoing OGM 1 mes-

sage at any time, press OGM 1. A1 ap-

pears, the TAD beeps, and the outgoing

message plays.

To play back your OGM 2 message at

any time, press OGM 2, A2 appears, the

TAD beeps, and the announcement-only

message plays.

SETTING THE NUMBER

OF RINGS

The ring select switch on the back of the

TAD controls how long the TAD waits

before it answers a call. Slide the switch

to the appropriate position.

2— The TAD answers after two rings.

4— The TAD answers after four rings.

7— The TAD answers after seven rings.

T.S. (Toll Saver) — If there are new mes-

sages, the TAD answers after two rings.

Otherwise, the TAD answers after four

rings. This lets you avoid unnecessary

charges when calling by long-distance to

check your messages. If you hear more

than two rings, you know you can hang

up because the TAD has no new mes-

sages.
