Example: Remote access over the public network bypassing the restrictions on a telephone
To use the system at a distance, you must use a telephone with tone dialing to call the system.
Remote access is possible only on lines that your installer programs to auto-answer calls.
To use paging on a remote system, press * followed by the feature code. When you are calling
from within BCM, press * instead of FEATURE.
In some conditions, you can experience lower volume levels when using the system from a
distance.
External access tones
You can hear some of the following tones when accessing BCM from a distance. Table 108 shows
