Fax Attendant 2.1.1. Provides an integrated voice/fax mailbox, fax
broadcasting, fax bulletin board, and coverage for busy or off-line fax
machines. Fax Attendant only works with AUDIX Voice Power and not by
itself. Fax Attendant includes the following services and features:
— Fax Call Answer. Allows Fax Attendant to receive fax messages for
subscribers whose fax machines are busy or out of paper. This feature
also allows subscribers who have personal fax mailboxes but not fax
machines to receive fax messages. In such a case, Fax Call Coverage
gives the appearance of a personal fax machine by automatically
answering and receiving fax messages for the specified telephone
number. Faxes are temporarily stored for printing at a convenient time.
— Personal Fax Messaging. Because subscribers have fax mailboxes
similar to voice mail mailboxes, inbound faxes can be stored until the
subscriber asks that they be printed at any fax machine he or she
specifies, either on company premises or off-site, when the subscriber
retrieves fax messages remotely. This feature protects the
confidentiality of sensitive documents. Fax Attendant can even inform
subscribers of waiting faxes by calling to an outside number.
— Fax Mail. Allows subscribers to send fax messages, receive fax
messages, record personal greetings, program outcalling (standalone
configuration with AVP only: create fax distribution lists, change account
passwords, deliver report settings, and autoprint setting).
— Fax Response. Allows users to dedicate a phone number from which
callers can retrieve information. This feature directs callers through a
series of prompts that asks information about their fax machines. Callers
are greeted with spoken prompts that guide them in pressing touch-tone
buttons to access the information and to receive their information within
minutes by fax transmission.
— Fax Broadcast. Provides a simple way to send one fax to as many as
1,000 fax numbers. Because this feature uses multiple ports, faxes are
sent in a fraction of the time required for a broadcast fax machine, and
fax machines are free to receive incoming calls and to send other faxes.
Features such as Economy Delivery and Intelligent Auto Retry save time
and money. AVP voice prompts make operation easy.

Integrated Solution Call Accounting System (IS CAS). Collects and
analyzes call record information, calculates costs using rate tables
selected by the customer, organizes calls by client or project, and prints
reports daily or as needed. With IS III Release 1.2, IS CAS is distinct from
the standalone CAS Plus V3 application in the following ways:
