The PARTNER Voice Messaging PC Card is designed to work with the
communications system. The system configuration consists of two voice
channels (ports) and four mailboxes, providing the following basic voic e
messaging capabilities:
■Handles up to two calls simultaneously and provides service for four
subscribers.
■Answers outside calls and plays a customized message prompting the
caller to select a mailbox (1–4) for the party for whom the caller wants to
leave a message—all without the aid of a receptionist.
■Allows callers to leave a private message if the called party does not
answer or is busy on another call. The caller can also transfer to another
system extension or the receptionist's extension for assistance.
■When a message is left in one of the four mailboxes, the message light on
the system phone associated with the mailbox comes on.
■Allows subscribers to retrieve messages from any touch-tone phone on the
premises or from a remote location. The system informs subscribers how
many of these messages are new and how many are old (previously saved)
messages.
The voice messaging system provides two types of service:
■
Call Answer Service.
Allows the caller to leave a message or to transfer to
another extension if the called party is busy or does not answer.
■
Voice Mail Service.
Allows subscribers to listen to messages and to
manage their own mailboxes.
