Configuring the Multilingual Guest Conversation Feature

Hotel guests and the people who call them hear the messaging system 

conversation

 in the language selected by the 

guest. 

The first time a guest logs on to the messaging system, the system conversation asks the guest to select a language. 
The language the guest selects remains in effect until the guest changes it or checks out. Installing additional 
languages does not alter the guest language selection.

To install additional languages

1.

Confirm that the messaging system server has at least 1.5 MB of free disk space available (10 minutes of recording 
time) for each language that installed.
