AUTO ATTENDANT
The auto attendant will answer and process incoming calls without human
intervention. The caller is answered and hears a message prompting him/her
to dial numbers to reach extensions in the phone system or follow other
options provided by the SMISC2 card.
Your installation and service company has already designed and pro-
grammed these options for you, including the greetings and messages that
play at different times while the call is being processed.
The only administration associated with this card is the greeting change.
Different day and night greetings may be programmed. These change when
the iDCS 100 system switches from normal day operation to evening opera-
tion. Additionally, an alternate greeting may be recorded to indicate a holi-
day, an emergency or another temporary closure. From time to time, it may
be necessary to manually change the active greeting from the current (day
or night) to the alternate (holiday).
