Holding?
In most cases, if you allow outside callers to hold for a voic e detect
box, you should set this field to Vox. This lets callers say Yes to hold.
Greeting Day:/Nite:/Alt:
This section controls the voice detect box greetings. A voice detect
box can have three separat e record ed greet ings. The fields dis play
how many seconds each greeting lasts. If the voice detect box has a
spelled name or System ID that can be dialed by telephone, the
subscriber that owns the voice d etect box can record all three
greetings and switch between the a ctive Day or N ight greeting and
the alternate greeting. The System M anager can also record any
voice detect box greeting at the console using a local connect ion.
The system automatically plays a beep after playing a voice detect
box greeting.
If you do not want the system to play a greeting, copy silence into the
voice detect box greeting fields. For steps, refer to Chapter 15
Recording Voice Fields.
The greeting does not have to be an actual greeting. It can be any
message. However, it should clearly explain caller choices.
The sample voice detect box ($VO ICE) is shipped with this Day
greeting:
“If your telephone does not have a touchtone keypad, you maycontinue by using your voic e. To do this, you say Yes for yes, o rremain silent for no. To continue by using you r voice, say Yes.Otherwise, remain silent to go to the op erator.”
