ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor controlled telephone answering device displays a message number and the date and time received for each recorded message as the message is played back. Other features include a cue function for selecting messages as they are played back. The answering device can automatically rewind back and locate a cued message to replay that selected message. Also, digital function codes can be transmitted over a telephone by a remote control unit to control a large number of answering device functions from a remote location. Additional features include the capability for easily entering a new security code into both the answering device and the remote control unit.
