Zoomerang

The Zoomerang feature enables the user to listen to messages in the AltiGen Voice Mail System, make calls to the parties who left the messages, and then return to the AltiGen Voice Mail System (like a boomerang). For example, this feature can allow a traveler to return calls for all messages with one call into the AltiGen Voice Mail System from a cellular phone.

How it Works, with and without Caller ID

When you make a Zoomerang callback, the system automatically makes the call to the number captured by Caller ID. The Caller ID information is captured for all internal users and for external callers who have a publicly listed, unblocked number or who have entered their callback number in the delivery options menu after leaving the message (see “The Caller’s Options” on page 39).

If the caller ID was not captured, the user can enter the number manually. If it is an external number, be sure to dial the outside line access digit and any long distance prefix digits such as 1 and area code. Also, please see “About Outcalls to Cellular or PCS Phone Numbers” on page 29.

Zoomerang is configured for each user; check your access with your AltiServ system administrator.

To use Zoomerang:

1.After or while listening to a new or saved message, press 5 to call the sender of the message.

The system places the call if the Caller ID number is available.

2.If the Caller ID is not available, you can manually enter the number.

3.Press *** to disconnect from the call and return to the AltiGen Voice Mail System.
