Ultimate 106 – Edition 2 – Issue 3 - 24.12.02 – 5129
Setting up the Answering Machine and Call Director
The Ultimate 106 is equipped with a digital recording system, which allows callers to leave messages. The system can work in one of
2 modes, Answering Machine or Call Director. Between the 2 modes, you have complete control over your voice mail. You can switch between Answering Machine and Call Director mode at any time (provided there are no messages in the system).
Answering Machine
Your Ultimate 106 acts just like a normal answering machine to take calls, play your outgoing message (OGM) and record incoming messages. If you subscribe to BT’s Caller Display service, the system automatically stores information about the call. (See Caller Identification, page 31.) The answering machine can be operated from any extension or remotely from an outside phone.
Call Director
Your Ultimate 106 enables callers to ring specific extensions only and leave a message if the extension does not answer.
Your outgoing message should include a list of the extension numbers. When the caller dials an extension number, they are put through to that extension only. If fax tones are heard, the Call

Director automatically sends the call to the fax machine (if one is connected). If the caller does not select a specific extension, then the Call Director will ring all the extensions (or those that have been set to ring during the day or night. For
If the extension called does not answer, the voice mail system will ask the caller to record a
message. “Sorry, extension is unavailable, please record a message after the tone.”
The message is then stored in the voice mailbox for that extension only. This helps keep messages separate and saves other users from having to listen to messages that are not intended for them.
Please note that if a caller does not choose an extension then they will not be able to leave a message.
