READ THIS BEFORE IN-
STALLATION
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 appear on the bottom of your TAD.
Your TAD-795 conforms to federal regu-
lations, and you can connect it to most
telephone lines. However, each device
that you connect to the phone line draws
power from the line. We refer to this
power draw as the device’s ringer equiv-
alence number, or REN. The REN is
shown on the label on the bottom of your
TAD.
Note: You must not connect your TAD
to:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
If you are using more than one device
on the line, add up all the RENs. If the
total is more than five, your phone might
not ring and your TAD might not answer.
In rural areas, a total REN of three might
impair ringer operation. If ringer opera-
tion is impaired, remove one of the de-
vices from the line.
• most electronic key phone systems
This device compiles with Part 15 of
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful
interference.
• This device must accept any inter-
ference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired
operation.

PREPARATION
Select a location for the TAD that is near
a modular telephone line jack and an AC
outlet, and is not in the way of normal
activities.
CONNECTING THE AC
ADAPTER
Caution: The supplied AC adapter was
designed specifically for your TAD-795.
Use only the supplied adapter.
CONNECTING TO THE
TELEPHONE LINE
AC 9V
Notes:
• Your TAD 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.
1. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s
barrel plug into the AC 9V jack on
the back of the TAD.
2. Plug the other end of the adapter
into a standard AC outlet.
• The USOC number of the jack to be
installed is RJ11C.
When you first connect power, the TAD
announces “Please wait,” then runs a
self-test for about 1 minute. After the
test, the TAD beeps and 0 appears in
the message counter window.
Follow these steps to connect your TAD
to the telephone line and phone.
PHONE
Jack
LINE
Jack
Note: The TAD’s message counter win-
dow usually shows the number of mes-
sages. That number alternates with
other displays to tell you the status of
the TAD.
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.
• A1 appears if you have not record-
ed announcement (outgoing mes-
sage) 1.
• A2 appears if you have not record-
ed announcement 2.
2. Plug one end of the supplied modu-
lar cord into the LINE jack on the
back of the TAD.
• Lo appears if a backup battery is
weak or missing.
3. Plug the cord’s other end into a
modular phone line jack.

43-795.fm Page 7 Monday, August 16, 1999 9:07 AM
Replace the battery when Lo appears.
INSTALLING A BACKUP
BATTERY
Cautions:
If AC power fails or you unplug the TAD,
a 9V backup battery (not supplied)
saves the message groups, message
counts, and the settings for the day,
time, and security code. We recommend
you use an alkaline battery, such as Ra-
dioShack Cat. No. 23-553.
• Before you replace the battery, be
sure the TAD is properly connected
to AC power. Otherwise, you might
lose any stored information.
• Always remove old or weak batter-
ies. Batteries can leak chemicals
that can destroy electronic parts.
Caution: Always use a fresh battery of
the required size and recommended
type.
• Dispose of the old battery promptly
and properly. Do not burn or bury it.
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove
the screw on the battery compart-
ment cover, then remove the cover.
SETTING THE DAY AND
TIME
To avoid losing the day and time settings
if AC power fails, we recommend you in-
stall a backup battery before you set the
day and time (see “Installing a Backup
Battery”).
Follow these steps so the TAD can
record the correct day and time each
message and memo is recorded.
2. Snap the battery’s contacts firmly to
the battery connector and place the
battery into the compartment.
Note: If you do not complete each step
within 8 seconds, the TAD sounds four
beeps and exits setup. Start again at
Step 1.
3. Replace the cover and secure it with
the screw.

1. Hold down TIME SET until a number
from 1–7 (the day of the week) ap-
pears and the TAD announces the
currently set day.
RECORDING THE
OUTGOING MESSAGES
Before the TAD-795 can answer calls
and record messages, you must record
an outgoing message (OGM). The TAD
lets you record two separate messages
of up to 32 seconds each, and it oper-
ates differently based on which mes-
sage you select.
2. To change the day of the week, re-
peatedly press REPEAT to move
backward or SKIP to move forward
until the TAD announces the desired
day of the week.
• OGM 1 – After playing your outgo-
ing message, the TAD records the
caller’s message.
• OGM 2 (announce-only) – The TAD
plays your outgoing message, but
does not record a message.
If you plan to use the TAD’s
announce-only feature, OGM
2
should clearly state that the caller
cannot leave a message.
3. Press TIME SET. The TAD announc-
es the preset hour.
The TAD-795 lets you store messages
for up to four different users. It normally
records messages in mailbox 1, but a
caller can choose a different mailbox by
pressing # and its number (1–4) after the
outgoing message. Be sure your outgo-
ing message tells the caller how to
record a message for the desired mail-
box.
4. To change the hour, repeatedly
press REPEAT or SKIP.
5. Press TIME SET. The TAD announc-
es the preset minute.
6. To change the minutes, repeatedly
press REPEAT or SKIP.
7. Press TIME SET to confirm the set-
tings. CL appears, then the TAD
beeps and announces the day and
time.
Do not tell callers that you are out
Hint:
of town or not home. Instead, say that
you cannot come to the phone right now.
To check the current day/time at any
time, press TIME SET.
Follow these steps to record your outgo-
ing message.

to set how long the TAD waits before it
answers a call (2 rings, 4 rings, 7 rings
or toll-saver).
As soon as the TAD beeps,
Note:
release OGM 1 (or OGM 2) quickly.
Otherwise, the TAD records a “pop”
sound at the beginning of the outgo-
ing message.
If you plan to check your messages by
long distance, set the ring select switch
to TS (see “Using the Toll-Saver” on
Page 15).
2. Speak your message from about 8
inches from the 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 (OGM 1 or OGM 2). You see
the announcement number and the
message plays.
If there is no announcement recorded,
you hear “You have no announcement
one” (or “two”) when you press its but-
ton.

BASIC OPERATION
SETTING THE TAD TO
ANSWER CALLS
INCOMING MESSAGE
RECORDING
After you have recorded an outgoing
message, you can set the TAD to an-
swer calls.
When the TAD is set to answer calls us-
ing OGM 1, it plays the outgoing mes-
sage, then beeps. The caller can then
record a message up to 60 seconds
long.
To set the TAD to answer calls, press
ANSWER. The announcement number
(A1 or A2) appears, then the TAD plays
the outgoing message and shows the
number of recorded messages. The AN-
SWER indicator lights to show that the
TAD is ready to answer calls.
The TAD normally records messages in
mailbox 1, but callers can record to a
specific mailbox by pressing # and its
number (1–4) after the outgoing mes-
sage.
ANSWER
Indicator
When a recording reaches 55 seconds,
the TAD beeps to notify the caller that
time will soon be up. At 60 seconds, the
TAD sounds a long beep and four short
beeps, says “Thank you for your call,”
and hangs up.
To set the TAD to record callers’ mes-
sages, press OGM 1. The TAD says “An-
swer on” and plays OGM 1.
The TAD stops recording and resets to
answer the next call when:
To set the TAD to play an outgoing mes-
sage but not let callers leave a mes-
sage, press OGM 2. The TAD says
“Announce only” and plays OGM 2. Ao
(announce only) and the number of re-
corded messages alternately appear.
• the caller hangs up
• the maximum message length is
reached
• there are more than 8 seconds of si-
lence
• you pick up any phone on the same
line as the TAD
If the TAD’s memory is full, FL and the
number of recorded messages alter-
nately appear. It answers calls after 3
rings and plays the announce-only mes-
sage (OGM 2). If no OGM 2 is recorded,
the TAD says “Memory is full, please call
later.”
To set the TAD to not answer calls,
press ANSWER. The TAD announces
“Answer off” and beeps. The ANSWER
indicator turns off.

Notes:
PLAYING MESSAGES
• The maximum recording capacity is
48 minutes or 59 messages.
The TAD’s message counter window
shows the total number of messages,
both old and new. If there are new mes-
sages, the mailbox indicators flash to let
you know which mailboxes have new
messages.
• Many local phone companies use
calling party control (CPC) to signal
that the caller has hung up. Your
TAD recognizes a CPC signal and
releases the line. If the TAD records
phone company messages or dial
tones, your local phone company
probably does not use CPC.
Note: The TAD’s message counter win-
dow might also alternately show other
information to tell you the status of the
TAD.
• A1 appears if you have not record-
ed announcement (outgoing mes-
sage) 1.
SCREENING CALLS
To screen calls, let the TAD answer
them, then listen to the caller’s message
through the TAD’s speaker. To adjust the

If you decide to answer the call, pick up
any phone on the same phone line as
the TAD. The TAD stops recording and
resets to answer the next call.
If you do not want to take the call, simply
let the TAD finish recording the caller’s
message.
To play only new messages, hold down
the desired mailbox button for 2 sec-
onds. The TAD tells you how many new
messages you have in that mailbox and
plays them.

REMOTE OPERATION
While you are away from your home or
office, you can use a touch-tone phone
or a pulse (rotary) phone with a pocket
tone dialer to enter your remote opera-
tion security code and do any of the fol-
lowing:
USING REMOTE
COMMANDS
Follow these steps to operate the TAD
remotely.
1. Dial your phone number.
• set the TAD to answer calls
• listen to your messages
• record a new announcement
• record a memo
2. When the TAD answers, enter your
remote operation security code. The
TAD beeps once to confirm that you
entered the correct code.
Notes:
• delete messages
• If you do not enter each digit of
the security code within 8 sec-
onds, the TAD hangs up.
• monitor the room where the TAD is
located
Note: You cannot remotely operate the
TAD from another phone on the same
line as your TAD-795.
• Even if the TAD is not set to an-
swer calls, it will answer after
about 9 rings.
3. Enter a remote command (see “Re-
mote Commands” on Page 16).
USING THE TOLL-SAVER
4. When you finish, simply hang up.
If the ring select switch is set to TS (toll-
saver) (see “Setting the Number of
Rings” on Page 9), the TAD answers af-
ter two rings if you have new messages.
If there are no new messages, the TAD
waits for four rings before it answers.
This gives you time to hang up before
the TAD answers so you can avoid un-
necessary long-distance charges.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack TAD-795 Digital Telephone Answering System is an example of su-
perior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for
your TAD-795 so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the TAD-795 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the TAD-795 only in normal temperature environments.
Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, dam-
age batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the TAD-795 away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature
wear of parts.
Handle the TAD-795 gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage cir-
cuit boards and cases and can cause the TAD-795 to work improperly.
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type. Batteries can
leak chemicals that damage your TAD-795’s electronic parts.
Wipe the TAD-795 with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter-
gents to clean the TAD-795.
Modifying or tampering with the TAD-795’s internal components can cause a mal-
function and might invalidate your TAD-795’s warranty and void your FCC authoriza-
tion to operate it. If your TAD-795 is not performing as it should, take it to your local
RadioShack store for assistance. If the trouble is affecting the telephone lines, the
phone company can ask you to disconnect your TAD-795 until you have resolved the
problem.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
LIGHTNING
Your TAD has built-in protection circuits
to reduce the risk of damage from surg-
es in phone and power line current.
These protection circuits meet or ex-
ceed FCC requirements. However, light-
ning striking the phone line or power
lines can damage your TAD.
In the unlikely event that your TAD caus-
es problems on the phone line, the
phone company can temporarily discon-
nect your service. If this happens, the
phone company attempts to notify you in
advance. If advance notice is not practi-
cal, the phone company notifies you as
soon as possible and advises you of
your right to file a complaint with the
FCC.
Lightning damage is not common. Nev-
ertheless, if you live in an area that has
severe electrical storms, we suggest
that you unplug your TAD during storms
to reduce the possibility of damage.
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-
tions, or procedures that could affect the
operation of your TAD. The phone com-
pany notifies you of these changes in
advance, so you can take steps to pre-
vent interruption of your phone service.
