Operation design
Operation design
As a voice mail subscriber you have your own personal mailbox. It works similar
to an answering machine: callers hear a greeting and can leave a spoken message.
The AVS Voice Mail System also offers you an array of other features that go far
beyond the usual answering machine functionality. These include such functions
as "Auto-Attendant", internal and external notification, simultaneous group mes-
saging, multilingual capability and more.
The system is operated by means of voice menus providing diverse options. You
select menu items by entering DTMF dialling signals (Dual Tone Multi Frequency)
via your telephone keypad. Your telephone has to be DTMF-mode enabled to do
this. DTMF is automatically activated by default when the Office 10, 25, 35, 45
and 130 telephones initiate a call. The Office 20, 30, 40, 100 and 150 phones are
switched manually to Transparent/DTMF mode for each call. This is done by press-
ing and holding the * key or by pressing the Foxkey.

Accessing the management functions
To dial your personal mailbox, proceed as follows:
1. Dial the user group number or DDI number of your voice mail system.
2. Ensure that your telephone is sending DTMF dialling signals. If necessary you
can activate the Transparent/DTMF mode by pressing and holding the * key
or by pressing the Foxkey.
3. You hear: "Please enter your password."The initial default password is
"1234". It is recommended that you change this password immediately to
prevent unauthorised persons from listening to your personal messages.
Note:
If you do not hear this message after dialling the voice mail system
but rather a general announcement, a mailbox has not yet been
assigned to your subscriber number. In this case contact your system
administrator.
4. After correctly entering the password, you hear: "You have X new messages
and Y saved messages" or "You have no (new) messages". At this point you
are in the main menu area of the management functions of your mailbox.
From here you can listen to your messages as well as edit or set up your per-
sonal mailbox options. The following sections describe these functions in
detail.

Voice menus
The following sections describe the management functions of your personal
mailbox. After you dial your mailbox, the first voice menu level acoustically
informs you all possible item selections. You then access one of these by pressing
a corresponding key.
Note:
With the help of the User’s Quick Guide (see page 2) you can access the
desired management function at any time by using the corresponding
key selection without having to listen to the spoken text. This applies to
all voice menu levels.
Listen to messages
This menu permits you to listen to messages, save messages, forward messages
with or without a comment by you, and immediately answer or delete messages.

Options: password
It is recommended that you prevent unauthorised access to your mailbox by
selecting a personal password. A password consists of a four-digit number using
the digits 0 to 9. The DTMF dialling signals * and # cannot be used. If you forget
your password, the system administrator can reset it to the default value "1234".
Entering the value "0000" deactivates password prompting.

ment functions and to the default greeting to callers who dial your mailbox.

Voice mail operation with configured keys
For convenient operation of frequently used voice mail functions (e.g. activating
and deactivating call diversion and call forwarding to your mailbox, calling up
received messages, etc.) you can take advantage of the freely configurable keys
of your Office telephone. These you can configure yourself by assigning function
commands to keys. Once they are configured, simply pressing a single key per-
forms the desired function.
The following configuration examples apply to the Office 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45
telephones. The line is automatically seized and the configured function is per-
formed.
The function commands in the examples which follow have the meanings below:

The following three steps take you to the key configuring menu. This procedure
applies to all examples which follow:
1. Press the menu key repeatedly until "Configuration" (or "Programming")
appears and then confirm with the Foxkey or
hold down the menu key
2. Press the menu key repeatedly until "Keys" appears and then confirm with
the Foxkey
3. Press the free key to configure
Continue from step 4 of the following examples
Note:
By holding down the desired key you can go directly to the key’s
configuration menu.
Example 1
Call diversion (CD) or call forwarding (FORW’D) to your mailbox
4. Select using the Foxkey "Function key" and confirm with "Ok"
5. Use the Foxkey "Diversion" and "Subscriber" or "Call forwarding" (FORW’D)
to select and then confirm with "Ok"
6. The displayed function commands in memory 1 and 2 now correspond to the
selected functions. Memory 1 contains the function for activation and mem-
ory 2 the function for deactivation. These function commands are saved with
"Ok".
Activate (memory 1)
I*21N#PX
Deactivate (memory 2)
I#21PX
Call diversion
Call forwarding
I*61N#PX
I#61PX
To activate call diversion or call forwarding, enter the number of your voice mail
system in call preparation and press the corresponding function key. Pressing the

Tip:
You can also add the number of your voice mail system to the function
key by editing the content of memory 1 in the following way:
Activate call diversion
I*21nnnPX
I*61nnnPX
Activate call forwarding
In the above, "nnn" is the number of your voice mail system. Your mailbox
number is automatically assigned and thus need not be specified.
Note:
The activated function can also be deactivated with the Foxkey under
"Reset".
