6.2 Centralized Voice Mail

Multiple KX-TDE or KX-TDA series PBXs connected in a private network can share the services of the VPS when it is connected to one of the networked PBXs using DPT integration. Mailbox numbers and extension numbers stored in the VPS can be up to 8 digits long, allowing you to create mailboxes for extensions of PBXs in the private network.

Note

•Centralized Voice Mail is compatible with KX-TDE series (PMMPR version 2.0 or higher, and LPR version 5.0 or higher) and KX-TDA series PBXs. For KX-TDA compatibility information, consult your dealer.

•Refer to the documentation of the KX-TDE or KX-TDA series PBX for more information.

The following is an overview of the VPS programming required to use the VPS as a Centralized Voice Mail system.

1.Use Quick Setup to configure basic VPS parameters (see 6.1.2 Quick Setup).

2.During Quick Setup, use Auto Configuration to create mailboxes based on the extension settings of the PBX connected directly to the VPS.

3.Use the "MBXM 1" command to change the Mailbox No. Length Mode to "Flexible" and allow mailbox numbers of mixed length to be created (see 6.2.1 Changing the Mailbox No. Length Mode).

4.Change the maximum length of mailbox numbers (max. 8 digits; see 6.2.2 Changing the Maximum Length of Mailbox Numbers) to match the number of digits that are dialed when calling extensions connected to the private network.

5.Manually create mailboxes for extensions of the networked PBXs (see 2.1.1 Mailbox Settings Screen in the Programming Manual).

Note

•When storing extension numbers for extensions connected to networked PBXs that use PBX codes, enter the TIE line access number, the PBX code, and the extension number.

Example:

7		901		1234
TIE Line Access No.	+	PBX Code	+	Extension No.

In this example, the extension number would be stored in the VPS as "79011234".

•Extensions of the PBX connected directly to the VPS are created automatically during Auto Configuration.

•Certain features are not available for extensions of PBXs connected to the network, including:

–Two-way Record

–Two-way Transfer

–One-touch Two-way Transfer

–Live Call Screening (LCS)

–VM Menu

Refer to the documentation of the KX-TDE or KX-TDA series PBX for more information.
