The handset of the BT Response 510 is similar in design to the Relate range.
Response 510 is a combined telephone answering and recording machine with 13
minutes digital recording of messages. The announcement of the Response 510 is digitally recorded.
In addition to usual Answerphone facilities, the Response 510 offers access to BT network
services such as Call Waiting, Call diversion, reminder Call and Charge Advice. The
Response 510 also allows message forwarding of recorded messages. Response 510
may be desk or wall mounted. The instrument has a LCD screen to display numbers
dialled and provides a step through menu for programming the various functions.
The facilities of the instrument are as follows:-
TELEPHONE
Loudspeaking telephone allowing full handsfree operation.
Network Services:-
Four network service codes are pre-programmed into memory locations of the Response
510.
These are;
Call waiting - memory 8 (recall 2)
Call diversion - memory 8B (*21*)
Charge advice - memory 9 (recall*40#)
Reminder call - memory 9B (*55*)
The line must have access to network services and the Response 510 must be set to T-TB. If
it is not desired to use the pre-programmed network services codes, they may be
over-written. The method is described in "- 20 memory stores" later in this
document.
- Desk or Wall mounted.
- Mixed signalling. If set for LD signalling, pressing "*" will change
signalling to MF4 until current call is cleared.
- Last number Redial. Up to 32 digits. A pause, recall, "*" or "#"

MAINTENANCE
The instrument does not contain any on-site serviceable parts. Therefore maintenance is
limited to functional testing, checking the facility switches are set to provide optimum
performance of the instrument to match the line to which it is connected, the condition of
the tape and that the tape head is clean.
If the machine fails completely, the output voltage of the Transformer should be checked.
The Transformer output is marked 9.5 volts dc, but will measure about 13 volts when tested
with the output open circuit.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
The customer should replace the 3 x AAA cells when the Batt Low symbol is displayed on the
LCD.
REMOTE ACCESS
Response 510 may be accessed remotely from any Touchtone telephone or by the use of a
remote controller.
Accessing messages: Call the Response 510 and wait until it answers the call. During or
after the announcement, operate the # key on the telephone or controller. Two beeps will
be heard. From the keypad, enter the first digit of the security code, Response 300 will
beep once. Enter the second digit of the security code, Response 300 will beep twice.
Repeat for all remaining digits of the security code.
With the correct code entered Response 510 will announce the number of messages received
and announce "please wait" while it winds to the correct position on the tape.
Should an incorrect code be entered, a second attempt may be made, if this is incorrect,
Response 510 will hang up.
Memos and messages will be replayed automatically. Message replay will pause every 2.5
minutes and a pause tone will be heard for several seconds. During remote access, keying
digits from the keypad or remote controller will allow the user to control the functions
of the Response 510. See the user guide for a full explanation of the facilities.
Unless messages and memos are reset remotely, they will be saved automatically.

LINE TESTING
Normal test conditions when waiting to answer. After answering the telephone and answering
machine presents a loop resistance to line of approximately 328 ohms measured at 28mA.
Additionally, the instruments will draw about 25mA on hook. This may appear to give
apparent Low Loop line test conditions. With the handset off-hook, like many modern
telephones, they may give high resistance telephone loop test conditions.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. RINGING RECOGNITION
The ringing circuit has been designed to recognise both PSTN and all internal ringing
cadences generated by BT PABXS. There is no manual ring facility.
2. CLEAR DETECT Line Break Clear/Release from line.
Modern exchanges generate a 100 ms line break on the called parties line when the calling
party clears down, this is a called a disconnect clear signal. Response 510 will detect
this signal and immediately release from the line without the need to wait for network
tones.
3. PAYTONE DETECTION
When the machine answers the line, it checks whether paytone is present. If paytone is
detected, the announcement is delayed for up to 15 seconds.
4. BRANCHPHONE RESET
This facility causes the machine to release the line when a telephone connected to the
same line is taken off-hook. For about 1 second before and after answering this facility
is inhibited. This prevents the false release of the machine from line due to line ringing
(current surge to & fro) when answering.
5. POWER SUPPLY
The handset and keypad are line powered. The Loudspeaking facility and answering/recording
features of are mains powered from the 9.5 volt dc plug top transformer.
In the event of a mains failure all mains dependent facilities cease to function.
Restoration of the mains supply will automatically reset the machines to answer whether or
not they were set to "answer" before the supply failed. Response 510 will
announce "Please wait" and the display will show WAIT for a few seconds after
power is restored.
This is a system default condition and cannot be overridden. Messages received before the
power failure are not lost and can be played back remotely or by using the play button on
the machine.
If the mains power is removed together with the batteries and line power, all customer
stored information will be lost and the Response 510 will revert back to it's default
settings.
6. CASSETTE COVER
The cassette cover, which is located under the memory label must be in place for the
Response 510 to make and receive calls.
7. PSU OUTPUT VOLTAGES
On-site maintenance of the Response range is limited as the equipment
contains no serviceable parts. Some routine servicing - detailed in the User
Guide should be carried out by the customer, but field maintenance is restricted
to checking the facility switch settings and testing the power unit output.
Several adapters used with Response instruments are marked with lower outputs
than those actually measured. Approximate voltage readings (with the output open
circuit) are as follows:-
Transformer 19B (marked 13.5V DC) measures 19 - 20v.
Transformer 752 (marked 9V AC) measures 11 - 12v.
Transformer 753 (marked 9.5V DC) measures 13 - 14v.
KNOWN ISSUES
ACTION BEFORE CHANGEOUT (July 1994)
It has been reported that a large quantity of the Response range of TARMs have been returned as faulty without being fully reset and retried. Some faults are caused
by quick line disconnects and Radio Frequency Interference and may be cleared by a reset.
Models such as the Response 200, 300, 400, 510 & 1000 have all got a reset button on the underside of the unit. Depressing this button momentarily, using a small probe, will perform a slightly different reset to that performed when the mains is turned off/on. It is suggested that this is performed first, then retry all facilities, before changing out the unit.
However, if after changing the unit the same fault recurs on the new unit, the problem may be site specific and changing the unit again will be of no advantage. If this is the case, please contact the Technical Helpdesk for further advise.
RESPONSE RANGE: NOT CLEARING AFTER CALL (July 1994)
A major problem with Response TARMs recording after a message has been left has been caused by the exchange equipment presenting 'clicks' on the line when it is idle. This is due to a modified line card on System X exchanges. BT Labs are
aware of the problem and are investigating a cure. Changing the unit will not clear this problem.
NO CALL FORWARD - UPDATE (July 1994)
The cause has been identified as the 'end of call signal' (Disconnect Clear Time) which indicates to the machine that the call has finished but also prevents the Response
510 forwarding a valid message. A modified version is available but it is recommended that the DCT is reduced to
l00ms before requesting a modified unit. Please contact the Helpdesk for details on obtaining these units.
LCD SHOWS HANDSET OFF WHEN IT IS ON (July 1994)
A few instances of this problem have been reported.
