Hello I was wondering how to use the VM acess with my phone. I want to be able to call from a different number and listen to my messages how do I go about doing so

I have a similar model. You need to configure a remote access code on the phone. Then, when you call your phone, you enter the pin after your message starts.

(From the manual)
Using a touch-tone phone, you can call your phone number from outside and access the unit to listen to messages or change answering system settings. The unit's voice guidance prompts you to press certain dial keys to perform different operations.

Remote access code:
A 3-digit remote access code must be entered when operating the answering system remotely. This code prevents unauthorized parties from listening to your messages remotely. The default
setting is "111".

Important:
To prevent unauthorized access to this product, we recommend that you regularly change the remote code.
1 {MENU} {#} {3} {0} {6}
2 Enter the desired 3-digit remote
access code.
3 {SAVE} {OFF}

Below is a link to the manual. The remote access instructions are on page 35.

How to operate the answering machine

hi friend,
Step 1Call your telephone number and wait for the answering machine to answer. If you have left the answering machine in the off state then you should let it continue ringing until the machine finally answers, this may be as many as ten rings or more. When the machine finally answers, you may hear a series of beeping sounds.
  • Step 2Press "0" during the playback of the greeting message or during the series of beeps. Enter your PIN code within the next 2 seconds. You must know your PIN code to operate the answering machine remotely.
  • Step 3Wait for the prompt to enter a command code for remote operation. You will hear the machine report the current time and how many messages are in memory. The machine will then play a beep and wait for your command. To turn on the answering machine you must enter the corresponding code. You must enter the remote command within 15 seconds.
  • Step 4Hang up after the machine finishes the command and beeps. Call back to your number and make sure that the machine is now in the on state and will answer incoming calls.
  • jQuery('.article ol .image').each(function(i,e){ var $this = jQuery(this); $this.find('img').error(function(){ jQuery(this).remove(); $this.remove(); }); }); Tips & Warnings
    • Each brand and manufacturer of answering machines have different commands and PIN codes for the answering machines. Refer to your user manual for the exact codes and instructions on how to pick your PIN number for your phone.

    I left my Vtech phone in New York, left for Europe and forgot to set the answering machine on. When I call in I get a factory recorded announcement that I'm not available, etc. I have my PIN # with me,...

    Can you please specify the exact model of the phone? Because the steps in accessing it remotely varies from model to model. Anyway, you can try to follow the steps posted here and then test:

    Remote operation allows you to control the functions of the Answering System when you
    are away from the Base,and call from an outside telephone line. The Answering
    System cannot be accessed from another telephone on the same line. You can access
    many of the Answering System functons from a remote location, such as listening to
    messages, changing recorded announcements, and recording memos.
    Remote operation can only be accessed from a touch tone telephone. If the remote phone
    is set to pulse dialing, switch it tone. If tone dialing is not available, you will not be able
    to access the Answering System.
    Note: All function codes should be entered within 2 seconds in order to activate Remote
    Operation.
    To Activate Remote Operation From a Different Telephone Line
    1. If the Answering System is OFF, you can dial your telephone number and wait for
    the Answering System to answer your call after 10 rings. An announcement, "Please
    enter your security code" is given, and you enter your security code to use remote
    operation.
    2. If the Answering System is ON, it will answer your call and begin playing the currently
    selected announcement (as with any incoming call).
    3. Enter # followed by your 2 digit security code during the announcement. The
    default security code is 19.
    4. Once the security code is received, a double confirmation beep will be given, and
    you are in Remote Operation mode. You can then control the Answering Machine
    functions using the telephone keypad.
    5. The user can also enter the Remote Operation mode during message recording. The
    procedure is the same as step 3. The recording will be stopped after entering the
    valid security code "s#xx " and the incomplete message will be deleted. If " 0s"
    is entered, the Answering System will release the line, but the recorded message
    will still be retained.
    6. If the user enters a wrong security code, the system will release the line.
    Playing Messages Remotely
    1. Press " #1 ", " #2 " or " #3 " on the touch tone keypad to play the messages in the
    corresponding mailbox.
    2. The system will announce "Mailbox X. You have XX new messages and XX old
    messages" and the system will playback the new message only. If there are no new
    messages, the system will announce "Mailbox X. You have XX old messages. On
    the other hand, in the absence of old messages, the system will announce only the
    number of new messages.
    Repeat Messages During Playback
    1. Press "#4" once during message playback to repeat the current message.
    2. Press "#4" twice within 2 seconds to skip to the previous message.
    Skip Messages During Playback
    1. Press "#6" once to skip forward to the next message.
    Stop Message Playback
    1. Pressing "#5" during message playback will stop playback.
    Deleting Messages
    1. Press "#9" once during message playback to delete the current message.
    Note: Playback will pause if "#" or " " is entered. Answering System will wait for the
    command in the following 2 seconds. If no further tone is entered, playback will be resumed.
    Memo Recording
    1. Press " 8".
    2. After selecting the mailbox by entering command "1", "2", "3", You will hear, "Now
    recording", followed by a beep.
    3. Enter "#5" to stop recording when you have finished.
    Change OGM Remotely
    1. Enter " 7" to record a new OGM. You will hear, "Now recording", followed by a
    beep to signal start of recording.
    2. Press "#5" to stop recording. Your new OGM will playback automatically.
    Check OGM1 Remotely
    Enter "#7" to review OGM. You will hear playback of OGM followed by a beep.
    Turning Answering System ON or OFF
    Pressing "#0" toggles the Answering System ON/OFF. "Answer machine on", or "Answer
    machine off" will be announced, followed by a beep.
    Voice Menu for Remote Operation
    The system provides two pre-recorded voice menus to help you during remote operation.
    Press " 5", and you will hear the simple voice menu.
    The simple voice menu is as follows:
    • Press "#1" to play mailbox 1.
    • Press "#2" to play mailbox 2.
    • Press "#3" to play mailbox 3.
    • Press "#5" to stop.
    • Press "#4" to repeat the message.
    • Press "#6" to skip the message.
    • Press "#9" to erase the message.
    • Press " 5" for other functions.
    (To advance voice menu)
    The advanced voice menu is as follows:
    • Press "#7" to review outgoing message.
    • Press " 7" to record outgoing message.
    • Press " 8" to record memo.
    • Press "#4" twice to repeat previous message.
    • Press "#0" to turn the system on or off.
    • Press " 5" to return to the simple voice menu.
    Pressing any function code will stop the voice menu, and perform the corresponding
    functions.
    Exiting Remote Operation
    1. Enter " 0" on the touch tone keypad to exit remote operation mode. The Answering
    System confirms your action with a long beep and then disconnects.
    2. The Answering System also automatically disconnects if no key is pressed within 20
    seconds during remote operation.

    I need remote instructions for the phonemate 3900 am

    The remote function will allow you to control your answering device from anywhere. On the Phonemate brand, you simply "key in" your answering machine's PIN number when your answering machine picks up your call. From there you can playback your messages, erase messages, record a different greeting and more. On some models the "default" PIN code is stamped on the bottom of the unit. Some units have a battery backup to retain messages if you have a power outage. If your PIN code IS printed there, and you have forgotten your PIN code, simply remove the battery from the bottom of the unit, wait a minute, and reinstall the battery. Your PIN code will be reset. I have attempted to get a manual for your unit and the best on the web so far has only come up with the address as follows
    Phonemate Answering Machine Sales & Service Center 2321 Morena Blvd. San Diego, CA 92110 Phone:(619) 276-7312If this helps, let me know. We'll dig a little deeper.
