Announcement service
The announcement service is for incoming external calls, but if required it can also
be used for internal calls via a call distribution element. If a call from A is not an-
swered within a preset delay time by internal user B (who is either free or for whom
call waiting is enabled), the caller will hear a welcome announcement (provided
the call has not been rerouted to the alternative destination (Capolinea)

before-
hand). Once the announcement has been made, the caller obtains either the ring-
back tone, music, a pause or another announcement is made. This can be repeat-
edly endlessly, with the possibility of playing back up to 20 different Wave files. A
succession consisting of wave life, pause signal and pause duration is referred to as
a sequence.
