Megaphone: Answers Calls When Computers Are Asleep (12/96)

If a Macintosh Performa 6360 or 6400 series computer is set to Sleep (from the Special menu or through Energy Saver), will Megaphone still answer calls?


Yes, provided that Megaphone is open, Megaphone will wake up the computer and answer the call; the hard drive spins up to allow Megaphone to record the message. Also, for more reliable performance, verify that Megaphone is set to be the front-most application when the telephone rings.

To do this using Megaphone 2.0.3P and 2.0.5P, follow these steps:

Step 1
-------
Open Megaphone.

Step 2
------
Choose Preferences from the File menu

Step 3
------
Choose "Incoming Calls" from the Topic: pop-up menu.

Step 4
------
Click on the "Come to Front when Ringing" check-box.
