Check the bottom of your answering machine. It should have the required power adapter listed. At least my answering machine had a nice clear label.

My 1337 AT&T answering machine uses the DAS-2 power adapter. This outputs 9V 780mA. Googling the adapter number I found that the Lucent 1715 also uses the DAS-2 adapter. (The Lucent is probably identical to the AT&T but check your machine.)

I found a used one here: http://cgi.ebay.com/LUCENT-TECHNOLOGIES-DAS-2-TELEPHONE-POWER-UNIT-9-VAC-/250730379907 . There may be other e-bay sellers with the item.

I hope this helps.

The partner phones are now Avaya. The system time is going to be maintained by the operator's console or phones at extension 10 or 11 (the normal programming phones).

To set the system time, do the following:
Press Feature 00.
Press System Program (Left Intercom button) Twice.
Press #103
Enter the time in 24-hour notation (ex: for 4:23 p.m. use 1623)
A display should appear confirming the time.

Press Feature 00 to exit programming mode.

There is more information on setting clocks on various systems at
http://support.avaya.com/japple/css/japple?PAGE=OpenPage&temp.template.name=Daylight

The manuals can be somewhat difficult to find online. You may wish to contact your vendor to see if they can get you another copy of the manual.

Keep in mind that if you are using Merlin Mail you will need to set the time different on that system.

Try just pressing down on the greeting button on the answering machine, you will hear the lady say "record greeting" and keep holdong down until you are finished recording the message. When you are done, remove your finger, done!
