Simplifi ed Voice Mail Interface
When the Voice Mail Unit Interface is enabled, the IPS will send DTMF (touch tone) digits to the
Rollover Extension to inform the Voice Mail unit as to (1) the original extension dialed so that the
Voice Mail unit can play the appropriate outgoing message, or (2) the extension dialing directly
into the Voice Mail unit to retrieve their messages.
The Simplifi ed Voice Mail Interface setting has been implemented to allow the IPS to easily
interface with simpler voice mail and message storage devices. These devices typically accept
only a single digit to direct the caller into one of the limited number of internal mailboxes. If
“Voice Mail Unit Interface” is enabled and “Simplifi ed Voice Mail Interface” is also enabled, the
IPS will send only a single digit to the Rollover Extension. This digit will be the last digit in the
extension’s physical number. Thus, a call intended for extension ‘104’ would cause a ‘4’ digit to
be sent to the Rollover Extension. A call intended for extension ‘100’ would cause a ‘0’ digit to
be sent to the Rollover Extension. A call intended for extension ‘110’ would also cause a ‘0’ digit
to be sent to the Rollover Extension.
REMEMBER:
Voice Mail must be enabled (“7824”) for this command to cause a single digit to
be sent to the Rollover Extension.
To enable operation in the Simplifi ed Voice Mail mode:
At the System Manager’s extension, lift the handset and enter “7862”.
Pause for confi rmation tone.
To enable operation in the Standard Voice Mail mode:
At the System Manager’s extension, lift the handset and enter “7863”.
Pause for confi rmation tone.

MSG Button On A Key Telephone
If the System Manager has enabled the Voice Mail setting, a person at a key telephone can press
the MSG key and make an intercom call directly into a Rollover Extension. If the key telephone
extension has Exclusive Answering machine privilege, pressing the MSG key causes an intercom
call to be made to the answering machine extension associated with the extension.
