How to Use This Book

As System Administrator of the mail system, you will be the primary user of this book. To gain a general understanding of the mail system’s functions and features, and your responsibilities related to programming and system security, read Chapter 1.

To record decisions about how the mail system is set up, work with your salesperson or communications consultant to fill out the mail system Planning Forms in Appendix A.

The communications system Planning Forms should be updated by the System Manager of the communications system. Relevant communications system Planning Forms are described in Appendix B for your information. If you need additional information about a communications feature, refer to the Programming and Use guide for the communications system.

Using the information from the Planning Forms, a technician will install the mail system hardware as instructed in Chapter 2. Then the technician will program the mail system and the communications system as described in Chapters 3 and 4. The technician also will perform the verification tests in Chapter 6.

After the mail system is installed, you can use Chapter 5 as a reference when programming and using the mail system. At the back of this book is a pictorial foldout, representing system administration menus in English, French and Spanish.

If you have a problem with the mail system, follow the troubleshooting procedures in Chapter 6. If you need help, you can call for support as described on the inside front cover of this book.

If the mail system hardware is not at maximum capacity and your company grows, a technician can upgrade the mail system, as described in Chapter 7, to allow for more users or to support a greater volume of calls. Before making changes to your mail system, you should update the Planning Forms in Appendix A.
