Recorded Announcements
■On Page 2 of this form, enter an extension in the Routing Extension on Unavailable Voice Synthesis field. This is the extension number where you route calls when the speech synthesizer circuit pack is busy or out of order. Put the attendant’s extension or the extension of a backup voice terminal in this field since the attendant or backup voice ter- minal user can input wakeup calls and Do Not Disturb requests manually.
■On Page 2 of this form, enter a time value in the Length of Time to Remain Connected to Announcement field. This is the amount of time someone can listen to a wakeup announcement before the line is dropped. Enter a value from 0 to 300 seconds. If you have a limited num- ber of speech synthesizer circuit cards, these calls should be limited to 10 seconds. Some wakeup calls may not be completed on time if you allow guests to listen to wakeup announcements for longer than 10 sec- onds.

Required Hardware
The server supports the following announcement circuit packs:
■Integrated Announcement circuit pack (TN750C) — The announcement circuit pack is used to provide automatic wakeup messages and call prompts for the Direct Access Calling feature. The use of the announce- ment circuit pack gives the hotel management the flexibility to make changes to their wakeup announcements, add announcements when needed, and deliver wakeup messages in the language of a foreign guest.
■Speech Synthesizer circuit pack (TN725B) — The speech synthesizer circuit pack must be installed to allow guests to create their own wakeup calls.
