DX-80 HARD DRIVE VOICE MAIL INSTALLATION AND SUPERVISOR GUIDE 09/01
34
NO TRANSFER
The Voice Mail does not transfer the call. Instead, it plays the mailbox owner’s personal
greeting (if one has been recorded) or a system default greeting. The caller then has
several available options before recording a message.
BLIND
The Voice Mail transfers the call by dialing the number, then dropping out of the call. It
transfers the call without monitoring to check whether the called party is busy, answers,
etc. The final outcome of the call is the total responsibility of telephone system. If the
DX-80 has been programmed for transfer-recall capabilities, then when the telephone
system transfer-recall timer expires, the call is returned to the Voice Mail. (The Voice
Mail cannot perform call queuing when using Blind call transfers.)
WAIT FOR RING
This is a combination of the Wait For Answer and Blind transfer types. If the called party
is busy, the calling party is offered the same options as with the Wait For Answer transfer
type. If ringing is detected on the line, the Voice Mail executes a Blind transfer and
drops out of the call. (The Voice Mail can perform call queuing if the extension is busy.)
WAIT FOR ANSWER
This transfer type is not available at this time. If your application requires call queuing,
use Wait for Ring.
SCREEN
This transfer type functions exactly the same way as with the Wait For Answer transfer
type until the called party answers. Once the called party answers, the Voice Mail plays a
system prompt offering the called party several options:
• Press 1 to accept the call. The parties are connected.
• Press 2 to have the Voice Mail voice the mailbox owner’s currently active greeting to
the called party.
• Press 3 to send the calling party to the destination selected in the IF CALLER
CHOOSES OTHER OPTIONS field on Page 2 of the mailbox’s Mailbox setup screens.
