Features

An intelligent voicebox system provides users with enhanced, easy-to-operate voice-
mail functions. The same operating procedures can be used with the 

Aastra Voice

 

programme on corded and cordless system terminals and on standard DTMF (dual-
tone multifrequency) terminals.

Most features provided by the 

Aastra Voice

 programme can be set directly on the ter-

minals without the aid of a PC. The configuration and administration of the pro-
gramme are supported using the Aastra 800’s Web console and are explained in detail 
in the online help documentation.

Scope of Features

Call Number of Aastra Voice

Aastra Voice

 is accessed via an internal or external call. Your system administrator 

configures an appropriate subscriber call number in the Aastra 800 and gives it to the 
subscribers who have their own voicebox. After users dial this number, they are 
guided through further operation by 

post-dialling

 digits according to the voice 

prompts.

The Voice Menu: User Guidance

Internal and external users are guided acoustically through operation by prompt 
texts. The prompts are tailored to the current user – one who has a voicebox or any 
other caller connected to a voicebox – and to the situation at hand.

Depending on the type of system terminals used and the features they are equipped 
with, information regarding important features – such as playback or message 
deletion – is also indicated by the LEDs and on the display and/or by corresponding 
icons. On such devices, menus which have been specially integrated and expanded 
for 

Aastra Voice

 can be used instead of the number keypad to activate features.

Code-number procedures

 can be executed on the 

Aastra Voice

 at all times by post-

dialling digits – immediately after dialling the call number and before or during 
prompt texts.
