Operator Hears Tones

Possible Cause: If the operator receives coverage calls intended for the VMS/AA because there were no ports available, the operator will hear the signalling information intended for the VMS/AA.

What to Do: Repair out of service ports or add more VMS ports as necessary so that overflow does not go to operator.

Calls From a Remote System Do Not

 

Reach the Centralized Voice

6

Messaging System

The following are likely circumstances in which calls do not reach the centralized voice messaging system:

System programming is incorrect. Some of the problems described in this section can occur when a system manager makes a change in a networked system’s local dial plan, non-local dial plan, switch identifier, or DS1 Switch Type setting. Ensure that your private network system forms are kept up to date and that changes are cleared with the coordinating system manager. Refer to possible causes and action to take below.

A selected tandem facility between the caller or called VMI extension is out of service. Check the error logs and if the error indicates an out of service condition, call the Lucent Technologies Helpline at 1 800 628-2888; consultation charges may apply.

No Touch-Tone Receivers (TTRs) available at a remote system when using tie trunks. This can be verified by checking for the 0c03 error on the error log on the remote switches. If this error persists, contact your local service representative.

A technician may be performing maintenance on tandem trunks included in the routes for the call.

A power failure may have occurred at the destination system or at another networked system whose tandem trunks are included in routes for the call.

Possible Cause 1: Calling group used to route calls to the centralized VMS/AA is not programmed correctly or the coverage programming is not correct.

What to Do: Check the programming for the calling group:

Verity that the calling group type is Integrated VMI.

Verify that the calling group has a non-local member (VMI conversion number) assigned.

Check the coverage programming:
