PURPOSE
Beeper Relay notifies you of messages as they are left on your answering
machine by sending a special code to your beeper. This product is perfect for
small business owners, real estate agents, consultants and salesmen, etc. It
eliminates the need to try and call in and check for messages before they are
received. Don't wait around for important calls. Feel free to leave your
office or home. If you are expecting an important call, you will probably want
to call your answering machine as soon as you are notified of a message.
If you are not expecting an important call, it may helpful to have an idea how
many messages have been left on your answering machine.
HOW IT WORKS
All modems detect ringing from incoming calls. Beeper Relay simply counts the
rings. If the number of rings detected is equal to the number of rings the
answering machine is set to answer on. Beeper Relay assumes a message has been
received. After waiting for your incoming message to be left, Beeper Relay
dials your beeper via the modem and beeps you indicating the time the message
was received.
REQUIREMENTS
Beeper
IBM PC or Compatible
Answering Machine
Hayes Compatible modem (any speed even 300 Baud)
