Avaya System 85 phone system setup steps

Perform the following steps to set up the Avaya System 85 for the integration.

Refer to the phone manufacturer’s documentation for more details on these steps.

1 Set up the voice messaging ports.

The D/82 board emulates the Avaya 7434D phone. See “ To set up voice messaging ports ” on page 15

.

2 Set up the message waiting indication.

Set up one of the voice messaging extensions to control the phone system message waiting indication. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation for more detailed instructions.

3 Set up subscribers for the integration.

Assign the voice messaging coverage path to each subscriber. See “ To set up voice messaging ports ” on page 15

.

4 Set up a coverage path.

Set up a basic coverage path to the first voice messaging extension number.

See “ To set up a coverage path ” on page 15

.

Before connecting the UM8500 server to the phone system, perform the following steps to set up the phone system for the integration. For detailed phone system procedures, refer to the manufacturer’s documentation.

To set up voice messaging ports

1 Set up the system to detect hardware.

The phone system must detect the boards and other special phone system hardware that has been added or enabled.

2 Assign the extension numbers that the phone system will use to access the messaging system. Program extensions as digital 7374D phones. To set up the

voice messaging extensions as 7434D digital phones, see “ To set up subscriber extensions ” on page 16

.

3 Set up a hunt group to include all of the voice messaging ports.

If the phone system supports hunt group access codes, assign a hunt group access code for the messaging system. This code is the number that subscribers dial internally to connect to the messaging system.

Some phone systems do not have hunt groups. A hunt group can be simulated by forwarding each messaging system extension to the next extension when the extension is busy.

To set up a coverage path

1 Go to Proc 011 and set up a coverage path to the extension number of the first voice messaging port.

2 In the Word 1 section, complete fields 1 through 9. Below is an example of these field settings. There are no restrictions on coverage paths. Several coverage paths can be created to address specific situations. Refer to the phone manufacturer’s documentation for the field setting options and descriptions.
