1 Select question
Select the desired question number, 1–10. the ESI phone system will play the question and give you the
option to perform one of the following:
1 Record question
Begin recording at the tone; press
1
to stop. The new question automatically replaces the old one with
that question number.
Note:
The mailbox will not be enabled if
no
questions exist.
2 Delete question
When prompted, press
2
again to confirm deletion. If you delete a question in the middle of a list
without replacing it, the playback numbers of the other messages will not change (this is important only
for your knowledge in programming, since the system itself won’t introduce each question to the caller
as “Question 3,” “Question 6,”
etc.
).
Example:
If you deleted question number 3 out of 5 questions, the system would play only questions 1, 2, 4,
and 5 to a caller. When you retrieve the playback, two beep tones will separate answers 2 and 4.
