FEATURES

Your RadioShack TAD-704 16-Minute

Digital Telephone Answering System

with 68-Memory Caller ID is a combina-

tion high-quality fully-digital answering

system and Caller ID. The TAD-704 pre-

vents you from missing incoming calls

and messages. Fully digital means the

TAD-704 stores all messages on a com-

puter chip — there are no tape mecha-

nism to wear out and no tapes to bother

with. This gives you capabilities that

tape-based answering machine do not

have. For example, you can listen quick-

ly from message to message without lis-

tening to all of them.

The TAD-704 also shows the caller's

telephone number (and name, if avail-

able in your area) and the current date

and time, as provided by your local

phone company to Caller ID service

subscribers. It saves up to 68 Caller ID

records that you can review and call

back.

TAD FEATURES

record two outgoing messages of up to

about 32 seconds each: one for when

you want callers to leave a message,

the other for when you want to play an

day and time each message was record-

ed.

READ THIS BEFORE

INSTALLATION

We have designed your TAD-704 to

conform to federal regulations and you

can connect it to most phone lines. How-

ever, each device that you connect to

the telephone line draws power from the

line. We refer to this power draw as the

TAD-704's ringer equivalence number,

or REN. The REN is shown on the bot-

tom of your TAD-704.

If you use more than one TAD-704 or

other device on the line, add up all the

RENs. If the total is more than five (three

in rural areas), your TAD-704 might not

ring. If ringer operation is impaired, re-

move one of the devices from the line.

FCC STATEMENT

Your TAD-704 complies with Part 68 of

FCC Rules. You must, upon request,

provide the FCC registration number

and REN to your telephone company.

These numbers are on the bottom of the

TAD.

You must not connect your TAD-704 to:

• coin-operated systems

• party-line systems

• most electronic key phone systems

PREPARATION

Select a location for the TAD-704 that is

near a modular telephone line jack and

an AC outlet, and is not in the way of

normal activities.

CONNECTING THE TAD

Notes:

• Your TAD-704 connects directly to a

modular telephone line jack. If your

phone line jack is not a modular

jack, you can update the wiring

yourself, using jacks and adapters

available 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.

Follow these steps to connect your TAD

to the telephone line and phone.

1. Unplug the telephone's modular

cord from the modular phone line

jack and plug it into the PHONE jack

on the back of the TAD.

2. Plug one end of the supplied modu-

lar cord into the LINE jack on the

back of the TAD.

3. Plug the cord's other end into a

modular phone line jack.

4. Insert the supplied AC adapter's

barrel plug into the AC 9V 400 mA

jack on the back of the TAD.

Cautions:

You must use a Class 2

power source that supplies

9V AC and delivers at least

400 mA. Its plug must fit the TAD-

704's AC 9V 400 mA jack. The sup-

plied adapter meets these specifica-

tions. Using an adapter that does

not meet these specifications could

damage the TAD-704 or the adapt-

er.

• Always connect the AC adapter to

the TAD-704 before you connect it

to AC power. When you finish, dis-

connect the adapter from AC power

before you disconnect it from the

TAD-704.

5. Plug the other end of the adapter

into a standard AC outlet.

43-704.fm Page 6 Wednesday, November 17, 1999 4:47 PM

When you first connect power, the TAD

beeps once, MEMORY TEST appears,

and the message counter counts up

from

0to 22. Then the TAD beeps. 0

CALL 0MESSAGE appears. OGM1 and

OGM2 flash to indicate that no outgoing

messages are recorded.

INSTALLING A BACKUP

BATTERY

Notes:

• If the AC power fails or you unplug

the TAD, a 9V backup battery (not

supplied) saves the messages, time

and day settings, and CBT and

remote operation security codes.

For the best performance and long-

est life, we recommend you use a

RadioShack alkaline battery.

• If the AC power fails or you unplug

the TAD, the TAD can receive Caller

ID records. However, the TAD can-

not operate on backup battery

power alone.

Caution: Always use a fresh battery of

the required size and recommend type.

1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove

the screw on the battery compart-

ment cover, then remove the cover.

2. Snap the battery's contacts firmly to

the battery connector and place the

battery in the compartment.

3. Replace the cover and secure it with

the screw.

Replace the battery when ap-

pears.

Warning: Dispose of the old battery

promptly and properly. Do not burn or

bury it.

Cautions:

• Before you replace the battery, be

sure the TAD is properly connected

to AC power. Otherwise, you might

lose any stored information.

• Disconnect the telephone line cord

before replacing the battery to

reduce the risk of fire or injury. Use

only a 9 Volt alkaline or super heavy

duty battery.

• Always remove old an or weak bat-

tery. A battery can leak chemicals

that can destroy electronic parts.

SETTING THE DISPLAY

CONTRAST

1. Hold down STOP until the TAD

beeps once. 7and LCD CONTRAST

ting.

4. Press STOP to return to the time dis-

play.

beeps once.

2. Press CALLBACK twice. 000 and

SET AREA CODE appear. The first 0

repeatedly press SKIP until the

desired digit flashes then re-enter

the code.

4. Repeat Step 3 to set the second and

third digits of your area code.

5. Press CALLBACK then press STOP

to return to the time display.

SETTING THE DAY, TIME

AND DATE

To avoid losing the day and time set-

tings if AC power fails, we recommend

you install a backup battery before you

set the day and time (see “Installing a

Backup Battery” on Page 7).

Follow these steps so the TAD can

record the correct day and time each

message and memo is recorded.

Note: If you do not complete each step

within 8 seconds, the TAD exits setup.

Start again at Step 1.

1. Hold down STOP until the TAD

beeps once.

2. Repeatedly press CALLBACK until

SUNDAY appears.

the week.

7. Press CALLBACK then press STOP

to return to the time display.

SETTING THE NUMBER

OF RINGS

Set the ring select switch to 2, 4, 7, or TS

to set how long the TAD waits before it

answers a call (2 rings, 4 rings, 7 rings

or toll-saver).

If you plan to check your messages by

long distance, set the ring select switch

to TS.

TAD OPERATION

RECORDING THE

OUTGOING MESSAGES

Before the TAD-704 can answer calls

and record messages, you must record

an outgoing message (OGM). The TAD-

704 lets you record two separate mes-

sages, and it operates differently based

on which message you select.

OGM 1 — After playing your outgoing

message, the TAD records the caller's

message.

OGM 2 (announce-only) — The TAD

plays your outgoing message, but does

not record a message.

Notes:

• The maximum length for each out-

going message is 32 seconds. As

you record, the message counter

shows the recording time.

• If you plan to use the TAD's

announce-only feature, OGM 2

should clearly state that the caller

cannot leave a message.

•OGM1 or OGM2 on the display stops

flashing to indicate OGM1 or OGM2

is recorded.

Follow these steps to record an outgoing

message.

1. To record the OGM 1 (or OGM 2)

message, hold down OGM1 (or

OGM2) until the TAD beeps and the

timer starts counting. OGM1

RECORDING (or OGM2 RECORD-

ING) appears.

Note: As soon as the TAD beeps,

release OGM1 (or OGM2) quickly.

Otherwise, the TAD records a “pop”

sound at the beginning of the outgo-

ing message.

2. Speak your message from about 8

inches in front of the TAD.

3. When you finish, press STOP. The

TAD beeps and plays back the out-

going message.

CHECKING THE

OUTGOING MESSAGES

To check an outgoing message, press

its button (OGM1 or OGM2). OGM1

PLAYING (or OGM2 PLAYING) ap-

pears and the message plays.

If no outgoing message is recorded

when you press OGM1 or OGM2, the

TAD announces “You have no an-

nouncement one” (or “two”) and sounds

four beeps.

SETTING THE TAD TO

ANSWER CALLS

To turn on the TAD and set it to answer

calls and record messages, press AN-

SWER once. The TAD says “Answer on”,

and beeps once. ANS ON appears, then

the TAD plays the outgoing message

and shows OGM1 PLAYING briefly.
