    nouncement can bc programmed to use Digit 
    Translation, a feature that allows one-key access to 
    extensions, mailboxes, applications, etc. 
    Automated Attendant: The automated attendant is 
    a programmable feature that can be used to provide 
    automated call answering service. Calls can transfer, 
    forward, or directly ring in to an automated atten- 
    dant. When an automated attendant answers a call, it 
    plays a recording that gives dialing instructions. 
    After hearing the recording (or while it is playing), 
    the caller may dial an extension or mailbox number. 
    Automated Attendant Recall Destination: If a call 
    that is transferred by the automated attendant re- 
    calls, it is sent to the Automated Attendant Recall 
    Destination for the port that transferred the call. The 
    Recall Destination recording announces that the sta- 
    tion is unavailable and allows the caller to leave a 
    voice mail message or dial another extension. 
    Call Routing Announcements: A Call Routing ap 
    plication can be used as a playback device. This is 
    useful for programming hunt group announcement 
    and overflow stations. When accessed, the Call “1 
    :. 
    ._.; 
    Quick Message Retrieval: Only one Quick Mes- 
    sage Retrieval application may be created for the 
    system. It is usually programmed as the alternate 
    message source for the Non-Subscriber Voice Mail 
    ports. If so, when station users to respond to message 
    indications left by the voice mail ports, they are 
    prompted only for their password. 
    Non-Subscriber Voice Mail: This application han- 
    dles all calls that are directed to voice mail (other 
    than Quick Message Retrieval) placed by subscrib- 
    ers and non-subscribers. Callers will hear the main 
    company greeting, followed by a menu of available 
    options. In telephone systems with voice computer 
    hunt groups, internal callers will hear only the menu 
    of options, and not the company greeting. Stations 
    can forward or transfer calls directly to their mailbox 
    using this application’s extension number. This ap 
    plication can also be the message center for the sub- 
    scribers’ stations.

    2. AUTOMATED A’ITENDANT 
    2.1 The automated attendant is a programmable fea- 
    ture that can be used to provide automated call answer- 
    ing service. Calls can transfer, forward, or directly ring 
    in to an automated attendant. Calls to the automated at- 
    tendant application are processed as follows.

    2.2 When an automated attendant answers a call, it 
    plays a recording that gives dialing instructions. During 
    or after the recording, the caller may then directly dial a 
    station extension number, voice mail access number (if 
    there is no associated mailbox), or hunt group pilot num- 
    ber. Or, the caller may use the directory to look up the 
    desired extension. 
    2.3 When the automated attendant answers an outside 
    call, the caller will hear the company greeting, followed 
    by instructions and a the list of available options. Inter- 
    com callers hear only the operating instructions and 
    menu of options. The caller then has the following op 
    tions: 
    0 
    Dial a station extension number: If an extension 
    number is dialed that has a mailbox or extension ID, 
    the call is transferred to that station. l Direct ring-in calls to a busy attendant could be for- 
    warded to an automated attendant (using the Secre- 
    tarial Intercept, Call Forward If Busy or System For- 
    warding features of the telephone system). 
    Dial a hunt group pilot number: When a pilot 
    number is dialed, the call is transferred to the se- 
    lected hunt group. The call rings or circulates ac- 
    cording to the 
    hunt group’s programmed distribution 
    type (all ring, linear, or distributed). 0 The Automated Attendant’s extension number can 
    be programmed in the telephone system to receive 
    direct ring-in calls when the system is in day and/or 
    night mode.

    Mail main greeting by dialing the extension number 
    TION AND TELEPHONE SYSTEM SEIUP section.  assigned to the Voice Mail application. (The Voice 
    Mail application must also have an extension ID 
    pro- 
    grammed for it.) The caller can then leave a message 
    as a non-subscriber or access any of the voice mail 
    subscriber features. (See page 2-7 for Voice Mail 
    information.) 
    Use the directory: If the caller does not know the 
    extension or mailbox number of the desired party, he 
    or she can spell the name using the keypad keys and 
    “look up” the number in the directory. (This option 
    can be disabled in the database. Or, if there are no 
    names recorded for the individual mailboxes or for 
    the system’s extension IDS, this option will not be 
    provided.) Refer to page 2-20 for directory informa- 
    tion. 
    Dial the operator access destination: If the caller 
    needs further assistance, dialing 0 will access the 
    IVX500 System’s programmed operator destina- 
    tion. Or, if the caller is on a rotary telephone and can- 
    not enter a digit, the call will be automatically trans- 
    ferred to the operator destination. (The operator 
    access destination is programmed as described on 
    page 3-63. There can be separate destinations for 
    day and night modes.) 
    NOTE: Due to the natural characteristics of the trunk, 
    the volume level of DTMF tones transmitted over the 
    trunk may be substantially reduced before reaching the 
    telephone and voice mail systems. This natural degrada- 
    tion in tone volume may adversely affect the reliability 
    of the Automated Attendant feature. Other factors 
    which can’affect automated attendant performance are 
    trunk noise and the quality and strength of the IYIMF 
    tones generated by the off-premises phone itself.

    2.4 AUTOMATED ATTENDANT 
    APPLICATIONS 
    There are a number of different uses for this fea- 
    ture. Here are two examples:

    DESTINATION 
    in PROGRAMMING.) 
    2.6 When a station receives a call that has been routed 
    through the automated attendant, the call is handled by 
    the telephone system as a transferred call. If the call is 
    not answered before the appropriate Transfer timer ex- 
    pires, the call recalls the automated attendant’s recall 
    destination. The recall destination is usually the Auto- 
    mated Attendant Recall Destination application which 
    announces that the called station is unavailable and al- 
    lows the caller to choose to leave a message or dial 
    another extension number. D. EXTENSION LB

    2.11 Extension IDs are used for transferring calls 
    through the Automated Attendant or using the Auto- 
    mated Attendant Directory. An extension ID allows 
    callers to be transferred to extension numbers (stations, 
    hunt groups, and applications) that do not have mail- 
    boxes. It also allows the extension number to have a re- 
    corded name in the directory. This feature is set up and 
    initialized using database programming and Voice Mail 
    features.

    2.12 If an Extension ID has been created in database 
    programming for a telephone system extension number, 
    either the principal user of the extension number or the 
    System Administrator must set up (initialize) the ID 
    with a password and record a name for use in the Exten- 
    sion Directory. At default the extension ID password is 
    the same as the extension number. If the Extension ID 
    has not been “initialized” calls can still be transferred to 
    the associated extension number. However, they cannot 
    be selected from the directory. 
    If the Extension ID’s user 
    name has not been recorded it cannot be heard when cal- 
    lers use the Automated Attendant Directory. The name 
    must be recorded in order to fully initialize the Exten- 
    sion ID. See page 2-11 for more information on initial- 
    izing Extension IDS. 
    2.7 
    If the Recall Destination fails to answer a call, it is 
    automatically sent to the recall destination’s pro- 
    grammed attendant. 2.13 Once the extension ID is initialized, the exten- 
    sion user may access Extension ID Options which al- 
    lows the directory name and password to be modified. 
    2.8 If an invalid number is dialed, the caller is 
    prompted to enter another number. 
    2.9 To create 
    an Automated Attendant Recall Destina- 
    tion application, follow the instructions on page 4-6 in 
    the APPLICAI’ION AND TELEPHONE SYSTEM 
    SETUP section. 2.14 If an Extension ID has not been created for an ex- 
    tension which is equipped on the telephone system, cal- 
    lers using the automated attendant cannot be transferred 
    to that destination. Instead, these callers will receive a 
    system recording notifying them of an invalid entry and 
    are routed back to the automated attendant’s main 
    menu. 
    C. AUTOMATEB ATTENDANT CUSTOM 
    RECORDINGS 
    2.10 Custom recordings are made using the System 
    Administrator’s mailbox as described on page 2-18. 
    Each recording is associated with a recording number 
    and assigned to the application(s) in database program- 
    ming or using the System Administrator’s mailbox. (Re- 2.15 Individual extension IDs can be programmed as 
    “Private” in database programming. A Private number 
    is included in the directory and can be dialed if the caller 
    knows the number, but the extension number informa- 
    tion is not available to the caller; only the name is 
    played. 
    2.16 Extension IDs can also be programmed as “‘Un- 
    listed.“That means that the number will not be included 
    in the directory, but can be dialed if the caller knows the 
    extension number.

    3. CALL ROUTING 
    ANNOUNCEMENT 
    3.1 The Call Routing Announcement application can 
    be used as a playback device that plays a message and 
    then hangs up to disconnect the call. This is especially 
    useful for programming hunt group announcement and 
    overflow stations. As an option, the Call Routing An- 
    nouncement application can use digit translation which 
    allows the caller to press a single digit for access to the 
    directory, subscriber voice mail, a station, a hunt group, 
    the operator extension, or a mailbox.

    ment or overllow station, the call 
    returns to the hunt group. 
    B. DIGIT TRANSLATION 
    3.4 
    Digit translation allows callers to dial a single 
    digit to access the directory; subscriber voice mail; or a 
    designated extension number, mailbox, or hunt gro@ 
    pilot number. Up to 12 digit translation storage locations 
    (O-9, *, and #) are available for each Call Routing An- 
    nouncement application (refer to PROGRAMMING, 
    page 3-21). 
    3.5 To use digit translation, the Call Routing An- 
    nouncement application must have special program- 
    ming. Digit translation is programmed by assigningspe- 
    cific “Actions” for each digit and determining what will 
    happen if the caller does not enter a digit (Timeout). The 
    length of time the application will wait for input from 
    the caller (O-60 seconds) is also programmable. 
    l The Actions that can be selected for digits *, #, and 
    O-9 
    , and for Timeout are:

    to enter the last name of the desired party. 
    Subscriber Access: This sends the caller to the 
    mailbox prompt that requests a mailbox number. 
    Invalid: The digit will not be used. Callers who 
    press this digit hear a recording that tells them 
    that it is invalid. 
    Transfer To Ertension: This action sends the call

    3.3 Call routing announcements are recorded using 
    the System Administrator’s mailbox as described on 
    page 2-18. Each announcement is assigned to use a 
    “custom greeting” number in database programming. 
    (Refer to page 3-48 in PROGRAMMING.) 
    - Transfe To Collected Extenkon: To allow 
    callers to dial extension numbers of stations and 
    hunt groups that have a mailbox or extension ID, 
    use this Action for digits that correspond to the 
    first digits of extension numbers. For example, if 
    digit 1 is “Transfer To Collected Extension,“cal- 
    lers can dial extension numbers that begin with 
    1. However, if digit 1 is “Transfer to extension 
    200,” a caller attempting to dial a station exten- 
    sion number that begins with 1 will instead be 
    transferred to 200. 
    - 
    Hang Up: This action disconnects from the call 
    if the user does not enter a digit.

    Issue 1, August 1994 IVX500 INSTALIATION & 
    MAINTENANCE 
    3.6 After the application is created and programmed, 
    the System Administrator’s mailbox is used to make a 
    custom recording that explains the options to callers, as 
    described on page 2-18. The custom recording is as- 
    signed to the Call Routing Announcement application 
    as described on page 3-21. A caller who listens to the 
    Call Routing Announcement recording can then dial the 
    single-digit location number to reach the designated 
    destination. For example, if the hunt group extension for 
    a customer support group is programmed for digit 3, the recording should say something like, “Dial 3 for CUS- 
    tomer support.” 
    NOTE: Digit translation is not recommended when the 
    application will be used as a hunt group announcement 
    or overflow station on telephone systems in which the 
    hunt group calls can be pulled away from the announce- 
    ment/overflow station when a hunt group member be- 
    comes available. For an alternate method of using digit 
    translation in hunt groups, refer to the manual for your 
    telephone system.

    4. VOICE MAIL 
    4.1 The Voice Mail feature allows callers to send and 
    receive recorded messages from any station or DIME 
    telephone. (Dial-pulse signaling is not recognized by 
    the IVX500 System. Callers using dial-pulse phones 
    will be routed to the IVX500 System Operator Access 
    Destination for assistance.) 
    4.2 Two types of applications are combined to provide 
    the Voice Mail feature: Non-Subscriber Voice Mail and 
    Quick Message Retrieval. 
    0 Non-Subscriber Voice Mail: This application han- 
    dles all calls that are directed to voice mail (other 
    than to the Quick Message Retrieval application) 
    placed by subscribers and non-subscribers. Callers 
    will hear the main company greeting, followed by a 
    menu of available options. In telephone systems 
    with voice computer hunt groups, internal callers 
    will hear only the menu of options, and not the com- 
    pany greeting. Stations can forward or transfer calls 
    directly to their mailbox using this application’s ex- 
    tension number. This application can also be the 
    message center for the subscribers’ stations.

    Quick Message Retrieval: Only one Quick Mes- 
    sage Retrieval application may be created for the 
    system. It is usually programmed as the alternate message source for the Non-Subscriber Voice Mail 
    ports. If so, when station users to respond to message 
    indications left by the voice mail ports, they are 
    prompted only for their password.

    0 By responding to message waiting indications and 
    reaching the Quick Message Retrieval application 
    4.4 All Voice Mail users hear recorded instructions 
    that tell them what to do next. Users simply listen to the 
    prompts and press the keypad key that corresponds to 
    the desired choice. If the user does not respond immedi- 
    ately, a second set of prompts is played. 
    4.5 Most prompts are interruptible, and users can 
    press the desired key at any time during the prompt. The 
    prompt will then stop and the system will act on the re- 
    quested choice.

    A. MAILBOXES 
    4.6 Amailbox is a storage location on the IVX500 PC 
    hard disk which stores all messages that have been di- 
    rected to it. (The hard disk also stores prompts, greet- 
    ings, and special programming.) Bach “Subscriber” 
    (voice mailbox owner) has assigned a unique mailbox 
    number and password. At system default the passwords 
    are the same as the mailbox numbers. (For example, the 
    default password for mailbox 101 is “101.“) 
    4.7 There are three types of mailboxes on the voice 
    mail system: Standard, Receive-Only and System Ad- 
    ministrator. There can also be Extension IDs which are 
    stations that do not have mailboxes, but that are in- 
    cluded in the recorded directory. 
    Standard mailbox features include, listening to new 
    messages, recording, sending messages, deleting 
    messages, and saving messages, and personal op 
    tions. Optionally, if authorized through database 
    programming, a subscriber’s options may include 
    Remote Messaging. 
    A Receive-Only mailbox type is restricted from re- 
    cording and sending messages. This type of mailbox 
    has no access to Remote Messaging and may only 
    listen to new messages, save or delete them and ac- 
    cess Personal Options. 
    The System Administrator has all of the options a 
    Standard mailbox subscriber has. However, addi- 
    tional feature options include: the ability to record 
    and send broadcast messages to all subscribers of the 
    voice mail system, provide mailbox and group list 
    maintenance, and record and select Custom Record- 
    ings. l Extension IDs are used in conjunction with transfer- 
    -1 
    ring calls through the Automated Attendant or using ;i 
    the Extension Directory. The extension ID allows 
    callers to be transferred to station extensions which 
    do not have mailboxes and allows the station user to 
    record a directory name and set up a password. 
    4.8 Multiple mailboxes and extension IDs may be 
    created. However, there can be only one System Admin- 
    istrator. There can be up to 500 total mailboxes (any 
    type) and/or extension IDs in the voice mail system. (If a 
    mailbox is created for an extension with an extension ID 
    number, the extension ID number is replaced with the 
    mailbox.) 
    B. GROUP LISTS 
    4.9 Group lists are programmed in the database (see 
    page 3-31). They are lists of mailboxes that can be used 
    by any Subscriber for sending messages to several mail- 
    boxes simultaneously. The information that is pro- 
    grammed for group lists include the following: 
    l Group list description 
    0 Group list number 
    l Mailboxes included in the list 
    4.10 Group Lists are not included in the Automated 
    Attendant or Voice Mail of directories. 
    4.11 The System Administrator can record the name 
    for a group list. 
    4.12 Instructions for using group lists are given on 
    page 2-13.

    C. INTERNAL MESSAGE NOTIFICATION 
    Message Notification Station 
    4.13 Each mailbox has a programmed Message Noti- 
    fication Station. This is usually the extension number 
    that matches the mailbox number (associated mailbox). 
    However, a different number can be used for the mail- 
    box’s message notification station (non-associated 
    mailbox). By default, the Message Notification Station 
    number is the same as the mailboxnumber, even if a cor- 
    responding extension number does not exist. 
    Associated: When the extension number, message 
    notification number, and mailbox number for a sta- 
    tion are all programmed to match and the mailbox is 
    marked in the database as “associated,” the 
    associated station user can forward calls to voice 
    mail and have the call go directly to that mailbox’s 
    personal greeting. (Even if other mailboxes use that 
    extension number as their message notification ex- 
    tension.) 
    Non-Associated: Non-associated mailboxes have a 
    message notification station assignment that is an 
    extension number that does not match the mailbox 
    number. (For example, a hunt group pilot number 
    can have a mailbox, but the message notification 
    must be sent to a specific station so that a message 
    lamp can be lit or message notification signal can be 
    sent.) If a station user’s extension number does not 
    match a mailbox number, and the station user for- 
    wards calls to voice mail, the caller will hear the 
    main voice mail greeting and must enter a mailbox 
    number. NOTE: If there are non-associated mailboxes in the 
    IVXXKI System, the telephone system must have the 
    Validate Voice Mailbox feature disabled. When 
    enabled, this feature prevents users from dialing 
    mailbox numbers that do not match valid extension 
    numbers. 
    4.14 When a mailbox receives a message, the mes- 
    sage notification station is signaled by one of the 
    IVXXKI ports that is programmed for remote messag- 
    ing/lamp notification. If a keyset receives a message, 
    the MSG key is lit and the display shows that a message 
    has been received. A single-line set will receive mes- 
    sage waiting signals, if they are enabled in the telephone 
    system database. 
    4.15 If a message notification station has more than 
    one associated mailbox, the message indications (MSG 
    key lamp, display, and/or message waiting tones) will 
    continue until all messages from all associated and un- 
    associated mailboxes have been heard. However, the 
    display does not show which mailbox received the 
    message(s), only that the message waiting indications 
    were received from voice mail. When the Message No- 
    tification station user responds to the message (using the 
    feature code or key), he or she will automatically enter 
    the associated mailbox for the extension being used and 
    hear the password prompt. To retrieve a message from 
    an unassociated mailbox, the user must bypass the 
    associated mailbox (press FiFl ) and enter the correct 
    unassociated mailbox number and password. Or, the 
    user may dial the Voice Mail access number directly, 
    instead of responding to the message using a feature 
    code or key, to bypass the associated mailbox.

    IVXSOO INSlXLLATION & MAINTENANCE 
    D. REMOTE MlBSAGE NOTIFICATION 
    4.16 
    Remote Messaging is a subscriber feature that 
    can be enabled through database programming. A sub- 
    scriber with remote messaging can program specific 
    telephone numbers for the voice mail system to call 
    whenever new messages are received by the mailbox. 
    4.17 Remote notification calls are placed to outside 
    numbers by IVX500 ports that are programmed in the 
    IVX database for remote messaging/lamp notification. 
    The circuits connected to the ports must also be pro- 
    grammed in the telephone system database to have the 
    necessary outgoing access and toll restrictions for the 
    trunks. 
    4.18 Each mailbox has a Primary and/or an Alternate 
    notification number. The notification numbers are pro- 
    grammed to be accessed during specific days and times. 
    4.19 The voice mail system monitors subscriber mail- 
    boxes continuously. During its monitoring, if new mes- 
    sages have been received (or if the Pager Retry timer ex- 
    pired), the system will check to see if the Primary 
    notification number is turned on. If it is, the system will 
    check the day and time programming. If the current time 
    is within the programmed notification day and time, the 
    voice mail system will make the notification call. If the 
    Primary Number is turned off or if the day or time does 
    not match, the voice mail system will immediately 
    make the same check for the Alternate notification num- 
    ber. 
    4.20 When the mailbox is being programmed for re- 
    mote notification, message notification can be set to 
    place the notification call for each new message or only 
    when priority messages are received. (This defaults 
    to 
    “each new message.“) 
    4.21 Remote Message Notification can also be pro- 
    grammed to retry the call periodically when it encoun- 
    ters a busy trunk or trunk group. If the system is not able 
    to place the call within the parameters of the pro- 
    grammed notification day and time (due to busy facili- 
    ties or invalid programming), the mailbox will receive a 
    message stating that the notification could not be com- 
    pleted (the mailbox owner will hear the message next 
    time he or she accesses the mailbox.) 
    4.22 If the 
    mailbox user accesses the mailbox between 
    the time the message is received and when remote noti- 
    fication is successful, the remote notification will be 
    canceled. It is assumed that the mailbox user listened to 
    the message when the mailbox was accessed. (However, 
    when the Pager Retry timer expires, the remote notifica- tion call will be placed again if the user did not take ac- 
    tion on the message and/or another message was re- 
    ceived.) 
    4.22 The programmed notification number can be an 
    extension number or an outside telephone number. 
    When an outside telephone number is used, the system 
    will access an outgoing trunk using a remote notifica- 
    tion table that contains a pre-programmed trunk access 
    code and will be followed by a programmed access ter- 
    mination feature code, if needed. If the notification 
    number is associated with a pager, a pager dial string, 
    LCD number, and termination code will be sent. 
    4.24 If the number called is busy or does not answer, 
    the voice mail system will again verify the time of day 
    and day of week parameters. 
    If the Primary Number was 
    just called, the voice mail system will call the sub- 
    scriber’s Alternate number if it is enabled for the current 
    time and day. 
    If neither station can be reached, the sys- 
    tem will stop attempting the notification until the Num- 
    ber Called Busy timer expires and notification is at- 
    tempted again (starting with the Primary Number). 
    4.25 Notification calls to outside telephone numbers 
    can be sent to a pager or to a number where a person will 
    answer (personal number). 
    If the call has gone to a pager, the voice mail system 
    will dial the programmed Pager Answer dial string, 
    the Pager LCD Number Display number and the 
    Pager Termination dial string. Then voice mail sys- 
    tem will disconnect the call. 
    If the call has gone to a personal number, the voice 
    mail system will play a prompt which announces 
    that the call is from voice mail, play the directory 
    name or mailbox number which originated the call 
    and user instructions. The listener can then enter the 
    mailbox number’s password to gain access to the 
    mailbox and hear the message. They have three 
    chances to enter a correct password. If the system re- 
    ceives an incorrect password three times, the voice 
    mail system will disconnect the call immediately 
    and the attempt is considered unsuccessful. It will 
    retry the personal number after verifying that the 
    times and days are valid when checking the mailbox 
    number. 
    4.26 The IVXXKI System can process up to two re- 
    mote message notification calls outside of the system si- 
    multaneously. 
    4.27 Refer to page 2-15 for subscriber instructions on 
    setting up remote messaging.
