SECTION 6 CONTROL TOUCHTONE
SENSITIVITY When the voice mail system is playing and recording messages and
prompts, it must recognize rea l touchtones dialed by the caller while
screening out the false touchtones that m ay oc c u r in human speech.
Because of no audible d ifference between the sou nd of dialed touchtones
and spoken ones, the system can only distinguish between them by
length. Dialed touchtones are usually longer than spoke n ones, so the
voice mail system ignores tones less than a certain length.
The voice mail system has the following minimum lengths for touchtones:
Prompt
Used when the system plays a prompt and expects the caller to enter
touchtones.
Msg
Used when the system plays back a message recorded over the
telephone and knows that the caller might enter a touchtone.
Record
Used when the system records a message and does not expect the
caller to enter a touchtone.
