Introduction

Figure 1-2: Additional Voice Mail System Connections

Featuring Digital Signal Processing (DSP), flash memory storage, SMT


production and a real-time clock, the Voice Mail System contains most of the
Automated Attendant (AA), Voice Mail (VM) and administrative features
incorporated in PC-based systems.
The Voice Mail System is available in a 4 ports version with 36 hours of memory
and is expandable to 8 ports with 72 hours of memory. It provides up to 500
mailboxes and integrates with most PBX systems via the analog station ports.
The Voice Mail System can be integrated with a Local Area Network (LAN),
using the LAN connection. This feature allows the Voice Mail System to send an
email notification to the voice message recipients. The new messages are sent by
email in the form of attached media files. They can be played on the user’s PC
through attached desktop speakers (see note).
In addition, the mailbox owner can maintain the mailbox via the LAN, using the
Personal Mailbox Management (PMM) utility.
The administrator can program and administer the VME Pro via a TCP/IP
connection.

 NOTE
The Voice Mail System can be delivered with or without the email notification feature.
The attached media files can only be played on the user’s PC after installation of the PMM utility
and the Windows Media Player.

As an option, an SMS transmitter can be connected to the Voice Mail System via
the RS-232 port. When new voice mail messages arrive, this option will permit
the Voice Mail System to send SMS text notifications to the mailbox owner’s
cellular phone.
The system operates in a PBX environment, with its 4 or 8 ports connected to the
analog ports (see Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2). The Voice Mail System is
programmed locally using a direct RS-232 connection with the PC running the
Voice Mail System Voice Mail Utility Program (VUP). It can also be remotely
programmed using a PC modem. DTMF programming is available using a touch-
tone telephone connected to one of the PBX extensions.

Automated Attendant
The Automated Attendant is a menu-driven program used for transferring calls to
specific departments, extensions and mailboxes. Its main features are:

Feature Description
Opening Script Greeting The Voice Mail System plays a pre-recorded greeting to
callers. The opening greeting usually includes the
organization’s name and instructions on how to reach an
extension, department or Operator, how to switch to
different languages, how to leave a message and how to
access a directory.
While the greeting is being played, the callers can access a
department by dialing a single digit, dialing an extension
number or holding on for assistance.
Number of Script The Voice Mail System plays a pre-recorded greeting, the
Repetitions required number of times, before executing an operation at
the end of the recording.
Operating Modes Depending on the time and system schedule, the Voice Mail
System assumes one of four operating modes:
The day mode for normal business hours. The Voice
Mail System answers calls with a pre-recorded day
greeting, prompting the caller to enter a desired
extension, mailbox, department or directory, or to switch
to a different language.
The night mode for after working hours. The Voice Mail
System answers calls with a pre-recorded night
greeting that enables the caller to leave a message in a
desired mailbox.
The holiday mode. During holidays, calls are answered
with a special greeting, prompting the caller to leave a
message in a specific mailbox or in the Operator’s
mailbox.
The break mode. This enables the Administrator to
program a special greeting for breaks during the day.
Up to 10 breaks can be programmed.

Unified Messaging Voice Mail System Installation and Programming Manual, Version 2.0 1-4
Introduction

Feature Description
System Schedules (Auto- If your organization’s operating hours vary from day to day,
mode) the Administrator can define the daily operating schedules
on a weekly basis, including day, night and break time
hours. When the auto-mode is activated, the Voice Mail
System automatically switches between the day, night and
break modes, according to a pre-defined schedule.
The Operator can override the pre-defined schedule and
switch manually to the day, night, break, or holiday mode,
using a password.
The Voice Mail System switches automatically to holiday
mode on dates programmed as holidays. During holidays,
the Voice Mail System answers calls with the special
holiday greeting, recorded by the administrator.
Fax Detection If the Voice Mail System detects a fax tone (CNG) during
the opening greeting, it automatically transfers the call to
the pre-defined fax extension. There are up to four fax
extensions available in the Voice Mail System.
Directory Listing (Dial By The Voice Mail System enables the caller to locate a
Name) mailbox owner. This is done by dialing the first three letters
of the desired parties first or last name. The mailbox owner
programs this feature.
Call Transfer The call is transferred to an extension, in a predefined
mode. The modes can be:
Non-Supervised − the Voice Mail System transfers the
call immediately, without verifying the status of the
extension.
Supervised − the Voice Mail System checks for a Busy
or No Answer signal, before transferring the call to the
extension.
Semi-Supervised − the Voice Mail System only checks
for a Busy signal, before transferring the call to an
extension.
The Administrator can program the Voice Mail System
to detect the Call Progress tone and DTMF signals sent
by the PBX.
Directory Listing (Dial By The Voice Mail System enables the caller to locate a
Name) mailbox owner. This is done by dialing the first three letters
of the desired parties first or last name. The mailbox owner
programs this feature.
Multilingual Option The Voice Mail System allows up to 3 languages per
system. Callers can choose the preferred language from the
Automated Attendant during the opening-greeting menu.
The Administrator can select the mailbox menu language
for each mailbox owner.
Answering on the First To avoid delays, the Administrator can configure each
Ring individual port of the Voice Mail System to answer incoming
calls on the first ring.

Unified Messaging Voice Mail System Installation and Programming Manual, Version 2.0 1-5
Introduction

Feature Description
Script Menus The Voice Mail System supports up to 98 script menus. A
script menu is a recorded announcement that can accept a
digit entry (0 to 9) while being played. Based on the digit
entered, the Voice Mail System can perform one of the
following actions:
Transfer the call to another script menu
Transfer the call to another script menu and change the
language
Transfer the call to an extension or hunt group
Transfer the call to a mailbox or a mailbox group
Transfer the call to a specified Operator
Dial a DTMF string
Retrieve messages from a mailbox
Disconnect the line
Leave a message
Transfer Call to Operator Up to eight extensions can be defined as Operators and a
call can be transferred from the Script Menu or from the
Personal Greeting message to a specified Operator.
Dial a String The Voice Mail System can be programmed to dial any
predefined DTMF string, while the script opening-greeting
message is being played. “Dial a String” can perform an
internal PBX feature, i.e. during the company greeting, the
external subscriber is instructed to press 7, to be able to
connect to another external subscriber. “Dial a String” will
convert the digit 7 to hook flash, plus the external line
access code, plus the subscriber number and disconnect
the Voice Mail System. Up to 20 DTMF strings can be
programmed.
Greeting by Port The Voice Mail System can be programmed to play an
Opening Greeting Message, when detecting an incoming
call on a specified port.
Import *.WAV file Windows media files (*.wav) can be used to create Script
Opening Greeting Messages. A source *.wav file can be
transferred and automatically converted into the required
Voice Mail System format.

Unified Messaging Voice Mail System Installation and Programming Manual, Version 2.0 1-6
Introduction

Unified Messaging Voice Mail System Installation and Programming Manual, Version 2.0 1-9
Introduction

Feature Description
Integration with Your PBX The Administrator can integrate the Voice Mail System with
the PBX using:
The in-band DTMF Protocol. This type of integration is
achieved by setting up the communication protocol of
the PBX and the Voice Mail System unit (answering a
call, transferring a call, recalling as a result of a Busy or
No Answer condition, etc.).
The SMDI Integration with the RS-232 serial port. This
type of integration must be specifically developed for
each type of PBX.
Disconnection Methods Some PBXs can notify the Voice Mail System when a call is
terminated through the line interface, using Loop
Disconnect, DTMF Codes or the Busy and Disconnect
Cadence. When the Voice Mail System detects this
situation, the line is disconnected and the unit is ready to
receive another call on that voice mail port.
Message Notification The Voice Mail System automatically notifies the mailbox
owner of new messages. Notification may be local (to a
PBX extension) or remote (to a telephone at a remote
location, a cellular telephone, a pager, SMS (to a mobile
phone) or to email (to a predefined email address). The
system administrator can give permission to use the
external notification to mailbox’s owners. Mailbox permitted
for external notification can transfer a call to the external
number.
Call Forwarding The administrator can forward a call automatically from a
personal mailbox to another script.
Integration with Your PBX The Administrator can integrate the Voice Mail System with
the PBX using:
The in-band DTMF Protocol. This type of integration is
achieved by setting up the communication protocol of
the PBX and the Voice Mail System unit (answering a
call, transferring a call, recalling as a result of a Busy or
No Answer condition, etc.).
The SMDI Integration with the RS-232 serial port. This
type of integration must be specifically developed for
each type of PBX.
Disconnection Methods Some PBXs can notify the Voice Mail System when a call is
terminated through the line interface, using Loop
Disconnect, DTMF Codes or the Busy and Disconnect
Cadence. When the Voice Mail System detects this
situation, the line is disconnected and the unit is ready to
receive another call on that voice mail port.

3.2.3. In-band DTMF Protocol


The In-band DTMF Protocol is used for defining DTMF strings, sent from the
PBX to the Voice Mail System. The Voice Mail System uses these DTMF digits
to identify the condition or reason why an incoming call is arriving to the Voice
Mail System. Typically, they tell the Voice Mail System of a call-forward
situation or a log in attempt.
Each In-band DTMF Protocol event string is associated with an operation that is
executed once the Voice Mail System receives a DTMF string. A string contains
up to 40 digits: 0 to 9, A to D, #, and *.

 NOTE
For programming the In-band DTMF Protocol of the Voice Mail System unit using a touch-
tone telephone, see Chapter 5.

To define DTMF strings, using the in-band DTMF protocol:


1. Select Parameters In-band DTMF Protocol from the menu bar. The
In-band DTMF Protocol dialog appears (see Figure 3-6).

 NOTE
On the four tabs of the In-band DTMF Protocol screen, up to 40 DTMF operations can be

Example: Let us assume a caller calls in and is transferred to station 215


and there is no answer and station 215 is programmed for call-forward-
no-answer to the voicemail. If the PBX sends on a call-forward-no-
answer condition the digits “9 1 2 1 5” and we want to make sure that the
caller is sent to voice mailbox for station 215, then we would program in
the In-band DTMF Protocol event string as in Figure 3-7:

3.2.4. Network Parameters

 NOTE
Network Parameters will only be activated after the Send Parameters operation and physical
hardware system reset have been performed.
To define large-scale network parameters, you may need a Local Network Administrator’s
assistance.
The Local Network Administrator needs to define a user/email account for the Voice Mail
System on the Email Server.
The Network Parameters are also needed for the administrator’s use of the VUP remotely
(via TCP/IP).

To enable network features, the Voice Mail System needs to be integrated into
the TCP/IP protocol based Local Area Network. Enter the Voice Mail System to
the LAN as a regular Network user. This is possible via the definition of the
Network Parameters.
To allow for the possibility to send emails from the Voice Mail System to
mailbox owners, the IP address of the SMTP server needs to be defined. A
mailbox for the Voice Mail System needs to be defined on the Local Area
Network. For this the help of the Local Network Administrator is needed.
To define network parameters:
1. Select Parameters Network Parameters from the menu bar. The
Network Parameters dialog appears (see Figure 3-8).

SMS Transmitter

Chapter 8: SMS Transmitter


The SMS Transmitter is a GSM SMS notification unit, controlled by the Voice
Mail System. It sends SMS messages to a mobile phone to notify a mailbox
owner of new messages in the vioce mailbox.
The SMS Transmitter and the Voice Mail System communicate via an
RS-232 cable. The Voice Mail System only sends data to the SMS Transmitter.
The SMS Transmitter has the following features:
Tri-band GSM module (900/1800/1900MHz)
Maintenance free
Easy operation
Plug & Play installation
LED status and error indicator

8.1. Physical Description


8.1.1. Front Panel
The Front Panel of the SMS Transmitter (see Figure 8-1) contains six LEDs,
which will be described in the following table:

LED Color Indication


1 Orange Signal level 25%.
2 Orange Signal level 50%.
3 Orange Signal level 75%.
4 Orange Signal level 100%.
Traffic Red Data traffic – the light is on, when receiving
data from the Voice Mail System or when
sending an SMS message.
Ready Red Ready to operate – the light is flashing during
registration. After this, the light will be on.

The SMS Transmitter is connected to the Voice Mail System with an SMS
Transmitter Communication Cable (see Figure 8-3). The specifications of this
cable are described below.
RJ-11 RJ-11
(SMS Transmitter) (Voice Mail System RS-232 socket)

Figure 8-3: SMS Transmitter Communication Cable

8.2. Installation Instructions


The SMS Transmitter has a GSM engine. It therefore needs a SIM card from a
GSM network operator on its main board. The registration of the SIM card to the
local operator is similar to the registration of a mobile GSM phone.
The SIM card must be pre-programmed with the call center/service center
number and the PIN & PUK must be disabled.
Should your SIM card come without these requirements, you can use any GSM
mobile phone to modify the SIM card or contact the local GSM operator.
