4Introduction to Norstar Voice Mail FAX

Precautions

Before installing or upgrading a DFC, you must take the following precautions:

Shut down the Norstar Voice Mail system—A shutdown procedure allows Norstar Voice Mail to perform all necessary shutdown activities before power is removed. For more information, refer to "Shutting down the Norstar Voice Mail system" on page 6.

Unplug the NAM power cord—The NAM power supply contains high voltage. If you do not unplug the power cord, you may severely injure yourself. Also, if cards are installed or removed from the NAM before the power cord is unplugged, the cards and/or the NAM may be damaged.

Wear an antistatic ground strap—Static electricity can damage the components on the cards and the NAM. Always wear a properly grounded antistatic strap while handling the DFC, DVC, BIC or any other Norstar Voice Mail component. Ground yourself by attaching one end of the grounding strap to your wrist and the other end to a grounded metal surface.

Enabling the FAX software

The FAX option must be enabled after installing the DFC. Refer to "Enabling the FAX software" on page 13, or "Enabling the FAX software" on page 27 for instructions on how to enable the FAX option.

After FAX capability is added to Norstar Voice Mail, you can add or customize Fax Overflow and Fax-on-demand information. For more information about customizing the FAX software, refer to the Norstar Voice Mail FAX Set Up and Operation Guide.
