Getting started with CallPilot Manager

About CallPilot Manager

CallPilot Manager is a web-based application that you use to set up and administer CallPilot.

CallPilot is a versatile business communications tool that you can use to:

• answer incoming calls

• offer callers a selection of options to route their calls or access information

• provide advanced voicemail, Automated Attendant and call handling capabilities

This guide leads a System Administrator through setting up and operating CallPilot on a Business

Communications Manager 2.5 or a CallPilot 150 system. CallPilot works with your Business

Communications Manager or Norstar phone system.

This guide also explains how to record Broadcast and Information messages.

CallPilot features

CallPilot includes these features:

Voicemail

Records messages and stores them in a mailbox for easy retrieval. Business telephones on your system can have their own mailbox and greeting. Information can be distributed quickly to departments and workgroups.

Automated Attendant

The CallPilot answering service that answers your business calls promptly, 24 hours a day, with a

Company Greeting, plays a list of options to callers, and performs call routing functions in response to caller selections.

Custom Call Routing (CCR)

Enhances the Automated Attendant menu with customized menus and information messages. With

CCR you can determine the menu options and record the voice prompts that guide callers along call paths.

Fax Answering

Fax Answering lets outside callers send faxes to the main site telephone number. Fax Answering is available even if you do not have the Fax option installed on your system. With Fax Answering, a fax call that arrives through the Auto Attendant or CCR transfers to a specified extension. The extension is usually a fax machine connected by an Analog Terminal Adapter (ATA) or an Analog

Station Module (ASM).

CallPilot options

CallPilot has options that enhance your office communications. You need a software authorization code to enable a CallPilot option. Contact your vendor if you want to trial or purchase a software authorization code.

CallPilot options are:

Message Networking

Message Networking links your CallPilot system with other voicemail systems and allows the exchange of voice messages between users at different sites. CallPilot supports Digital networking and Audio Messaging Interchange Specification (AMIS) networking.

For information about networking refer to the CallPilot Message Networking Set Up and

Operation Guide.

Call Center

Call Center is an application that handles incoming calls as efficiently and economically as possible. Call Center answers calls, then routes the calls to agents in a skillset that most closely matches the needs of the caller. Calls can be routed based on the origin of the call, the destination of the call, or the information entered by the caller. Callers can be given high or low priorities.

Callers can overflow to different groups or skillsets of agents, transfer out of the system, leave a message, and hear announcements or informative messages.

For information about Call Center refer to the Nortel Networks Call Center Set Up and Operation

Guide.

If you use CallPilot 150 you can set up either CallPilot or Call Center as the primary application on your system.

Fax

Fax is a CallPilot option that enhances your office communications by providing incoming and outgoing fax capability. With Fax, callers can send and retrieve fax messages as easily as they send and retrieve voice messages. The Fax option includes Fax Mail, Fax On Demand and Fax

Overflow. Fax Answering is available even if you do not have the Fax option installed on your system.

For information about Fax refer to the CallPilot Fax Set Up and Operation Guide.

Fax is not available for CallPilot 150.

Unified Messaging

With Unified Messaging subscribers can use their email application to access voice, fax and text messages from their personal computer. Unified Messaging can be used with several popular email applications. Unified Messaging is available for Business Communications Manager 2.5.

Desktop Messaging

With Desktop Messaging subscribers can access their CallPilot mailbox from their personal computer. Subscribers can manage all of their voice messages from one graphical interface.

CallPilot password Desktop Messaging is available for CallPilot 150.

CallPilot mailboxes

About installing mailboxes

You install mailboxes by enabling a software authorization code. The software authorization code determines the number of mailboxes that you can add to CallPilot. On CallPilot 150 you can have a maximum of 200 subscriber mailboxes. On Business Communications Manager 2.5 you can have a maximum of 1,000 mailboxes. Refer to

“Enabling software authorization codes” on page

95 for more information on software authorization codes.

System Administrator Mailbox

The System Administrator Mailbox:

• is reserved for the System Administrator

• is created automatically when the system is initialized for the first time

• is where you can send Broadcast Messages from to all Subscriber mailboxes

Only the System Administrator can access the System Administrator Mailbox. Remember to check this mailbox for messages.

Warning: Change the System Administrator password frequently to minimize the risk of unauthorized activity.

General Delivery Mailbox

The General Delivery Mailbox is your company mailbox. It is created automatically when the system is initialized for the first time. The General Delivery Mailbox stores messages from callers when the Operator is not available, or from callers who use a rotary dial telephone.

Usually the Receptionist or designated Operator checks for messages in the General Delivery

Mailbox.

The default Class of Service for the General Delivery Mailbox is 1. You can change the Class of

Service any time. For information on changing the Class of Service, refer to

“Changing mailbox settings” on page 35

.

The General Delivery Mailbox can receive messages before it is initialized, but you cannot retrieve messages from the General Delivery Mailbox until you initialize it. For information about initializing mailboxes, refer to

“Initializing a mailbox” on page 27 .

Subscriber mailboxes

Create a Subscriber mailbox for each person in your organization who needs to be able to receive messages.

A Subscriber mailbox must be initialized by the mailbox owner before it can receive voice messages. Until a mailbox is initialized, it cannot receive voice messages and any calls that are directed to it are rerouted to the General Delivery Mailbox. Tell subscribers to change their mailbox password as soon as they initialize their mailbox.

P0919415 03

Chapter 3 CallPilot mailboxes 19

Guest mailboxes

A Guest mailbox is a Subscriber mailbox without a primary extension. Create Guest mailboxes for people who do not have an operating extension but require a mailbox. A Guest mailbox must be initialized by the mailbox owner before it can receive voice messages.

When you create Guest mailboxes, assign mailbox numbers that begin with the same digit. This identifies the mailbox type. Create Guest mailbox numbers that begin with a digit that is different from the Subscriber mailbox numbers. For example, if Subscriber mailbox numbers start with two,

Guest mailboxes can start with the number four.

When to use Guest mailboxes

Guest mailboxes can provide a temporary employee with CallPilot services, give clients access internal messaging and call routing, and let customers leave telephone orders.

You can use Guest mailboxes to:

• take personal catalog shopping orders

• list classes or seminars and let callers register by telephone

• give frequent customers access to CallPilot services

Using a Guest mailbox for telephone registration

This example shows how to set up a Guest mailbox with announcement and order-taking capabilities. When you provide services that let a customer call into a mailbox, include the mailbox number in the greeting. This lets a caller transfer directly to the mailbox.

To use a Guest mailbox to provide telephone registration, you must first choose a mailbox number.

Make sure that the Guest mailbox number is unique and is not assigned to any display telephone extension. Next, record the mailbox greeting.

For example:

“This month we are pleased to provide the following courses: Jazz Dancing Made Easy,

Intermediate Jazz Dancing, Warming Up for that Big Performance, and Beginner Ballet. If you are interested in any of these courses, please leave your name and telephone number after the tone. One of our instructors will contact you with more information.”

You can include the time and date the classes are being offered. This example is applicable to

Guest mailboxes that are used for taking orders.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

20 Chapter 3 CallPilot mailboxes

After you record the announcement, record a Company Greeting that tells callers about the mailbox. For example:

“Good Morning. This is On Your Toes Dance School. To reach the dance studio, press

›fl. To

register for our fall classes, press

¤°. To reach our receptionist, press ‚.”

Note: The number 46 in this example is an operating telephone extension and the number 28 is the Guest mailbox.

Make sure the leading digit of Guest mailbox numbers is different from the leading digit of the extensions. If you must use the same leading digit, ensure the Guest mailbox numbers are

“out-of-range” extension numbers. To test if an extension is out-of-range, dial it from another extension. If the number is out-of-range, the display shows Invalid number . If the number is not out-of-range, the display shows Not in service .

You must assign a Class of Service to the Guest mailbox. When you assign a Class of Service to a

Guest mailbox used as an order mailbox, choose a Class of Service that has the maximum mailbox greeting and message time available. Refer to

“Mailbox Class of Service” on page 22 .

Information mailboxes

Information mailboxes play an informative message to callers who access it. An Information mailbox must be initialized before it can play an information message. Callers cannot leave messages in Information mailboxes. Information mailboxes do not have operating extensions.

Information mailboxes are maintained by the System Administrator or a mailbox owner.

You can use Information mailboxes to:

• announce sales

• provide product lists

• announce special events

You create the Information mailbox and give it to a subscriber or department. The department creates the password and maintains the greeting. Information mailbox Greetings can be recorded by you or by the person assigned the Information mailbox.

To let callers know about your company’s Information mailboxes:

• Advertise the Automated Attendant main number, and record a Company Greeting that mentions the Information mailbox services.

• Provide a list of your company’s Information mailbox numbers in brochures and telephone directory advertising.

• Mention the Information mailboxes in the Company Greeting if your company has a small number of Information mailboxes, such as three or four. Use Custom Call Routing (CCR) if you have a large number of Information mailboxes.

P0919415 03

Chapter 3 CallPilot mailboxes 21

• Assign the Operator as the transfer point for all Information mailbox inquiries. Record a statement in the Company Greeting that tells callers to press zero to reach company information. For example, “Good Afternoon. This is On Your Toes Dance Studio. To reach our studio, press

›fl. To listen to one of our special announcements, press to reach the

Operator.” When a caller presses zero, have the Operator provide a list of the Information mailboxes and transfer the caller accordingly.

A call disconnects after the Information mailbox greeting plays except:

• if the call is extended by the Auto Attendant, the call disconnects or returns to the Auto

Attendant according to the Return to AA setting of the Greeting Table.

• if the Information mailbox is the Mailbox node of a Custom Call Routing Tree, the call disconnects, or returns to the Home menu, or returns to the previous menu, according to the

Next Action setting of the Mailbox node.

The maximum length of the greeting is determined by the Class of Service. The default settings for

Class of Service 7 and 8 allow greetings that are up to 10 minutes in length.

If CallPilot is configured as bilingual, the Information mailbox has greetings in primary and alternate languages. The rules for bilingual prompting determine which one of these caller hear.

Callers press a dialpad button, depending on which country they are in, to switch to the other greeting.

While they listen to the Information mailbox greeting, callers can use playback commands such as pause, resume, forward and back. Outside callers can press a dialpad button, depending on which country they are in, to transfer to the system attendant extension.

Mailbox properties

You can change these mailbox properties, which are not included in its Class of Service:

Company Directory

Message Waiting Notification

Outdial type

Alternate extensions

Express Messaging Line

Call Screening

Mailbox properties are not included in a Class of Service. When you add a mailbox, you can change these options without changing the Class of Service.

Company Directory

The Company Directory is an internal voice list that contains the spoken names of mailbox owners with initialized mailboxes who are assigned to the directory, and the names of other mailboxes that you record a spoken name for, such as Information mailboxes.

When you add a mailbox, you determine whether the mailbox appears in the Company Directory.

Even if you do not include a mailbox in the Company Directory the mailbox owner must still record their name when they initialize their mailbox. If the mailbox owner does not record their name in the Company Directory, you can record a spoken name for them by following the procedure

“Changing mailbox settings” on page 35 .

Message Waiting Notification

Message Waiting Notification gives subscribers a visual indication on their telephone display that they have new messages.

The default value for Message Waiting Notification is Yes. Message Waiting Notification displays

Message for you on a subscriber’s display telephone when they have a message.

When you create Guest Mailboxes, set Message Waiting Notification to No. Guest Mailboxes do not have an operating extension.

Outdial type

The Outdial type determines which line or line pool the system uses when a mailbox owner wants to use the Reply feature for replying to a message left by an external caller, and when Off-premise

Message Notification and Outbound Transfer are used.

The default for Outdial type is None. The values available are None, Line, Pool or Route. Until you assign a line or line pool as the Outdial type for a mailbox, the mailbox owner can use:

• the Reply feature to reply to calls from internal extensions only

• Off-premise Message Notification for internal extensions only

• Outbound Transfer for internal extensions only

P0919415 03

Chapter 3 CallPilot mailboxes 25

When you assign an Outdial type, all dialing is done by the extension to which the system is connected, not by the display telephone.

Dialing restrictions can be applied to display telephones and the extensions connected to the system.

If you set the Outdial type to anything but None, there is a potential for unauthorized long-distance dialing. You can prevent this by establishing outdialing restrictions.

Alternate extensions

You can assign up to two alternate extensions to each Subscriber Mailbox. If a caller dials the main extension (the extension that has alternate extensions assigned), the call rings at the main extension only.

Note: The exception to this is when alternate extensions are assigned an Answer DN for the main extension. Answer DNs are assigned to extensions in system programming.

For more information refer to your system documentation.

Only extensions that do not have a mailbox assigned can be used as an alternate extension. There are no default alternate extensions programmed for Subscriber mailboxes.

Alternate extensions receive the same Message Waiting Indication and Caller Display information as the primary extension. Mailbox owners use the Open Mailbox feature (

≤·°⁄) from alternate extensions, and usually access messages from the main extension telephone.

The Interrupt feature (

≤·°‡) can be used from the alternate extension the same way as on the primary extension.

Express Messaging Line

When you create a Subscriber Mailbox, you can assign an Express Messaging Line to it. Instead of assigning an extension number to the Subscriber Mailbox, assign an Express Messaging Line. If you assign an Express Messaging Line, fax and voice calls are left in the Subscriber Mailbox without ringing at the set. Inform the subscriber that they should frequently check their mailbox for messages because they do not receive Message Waiting Notification.

If subscribers have Fax enabled, they can inform people that the Express Messaging Line number is their fax number and have it printed on their business cards.

The line used for Express Messaging must be between 1 and 500. Give the corresponding seven digit phone number associated with the line you assign as the Express Messaging Line to the subscriber. For example, if line 20 is the Express Messaging Line and the corresponding phone number is 555-2424, give this phone number to the subscriber. After you assign a line to a mailbox, you cannot assign the line to another function until you remove it from the mailbox.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

26 Chapter 3 CallPilot mailboxes

The prime set for the Express Messaging Line must be set to the voicemail DN. For more information refer to your system documentation. The Express Messaging default is none.

Subscribers must have Fax enabled to receive fax messages on the Express Messaging Line.

Call Screening

Call Screening lets mailbox owners determine who is calling before they accept a call. Call

Screening is useful if there is no Caller ID available. The system records the caller’s name, calls the mailbox owner’s telephone, announces the name of the caller and offers options such as accepting the call or taking a message.

Call Screening applies to external calls dialed by callers using the extension dialing facilities of the

Automated Attendant or Custom Call Routing (CCR). Call Screening does not apply to internal calls, or external calls routed using a CCR Transfer node or placed to a mailbox owner’s dedicated line. If a caller is calling from a line for which the mailbox owner has recorded a Personal Mailbox

Greeting, Call Screening is bypassed and the call transfers without delay.

If Call Screening is enabled, CallPilot calls a mailbox owner’s telephone that is call forwarded.

The default for Call Screening is No, which means that unless subscribers have CLID they cannot determine who is calling before they answer the call.

Restricting outdialing

You can apply dialing restrictions to Nortel Networks Business Series Terminals and the extensions connected to CallPilot 150 or Business Communications Manager 2.5.

To restrict outdialing

Do one of the following:

• In system programming, assign dialing restrictions to the extension numbers that CallPilot is connected to. This restricts all outdialing calls including external transfers from CCR trees,

Off-premise Message Notification and Outbound Transfers. Outdialing is done by the extension that CallPilot is connected to. For more information refer to your system documentation.

• In system programming, assign dialing restrictions to the extension of the subscriber. For additional information, refer to your system documentation.

• In system programming, assign dialing restrictions to the lines used for outdialing. For additional information, refer to your system documentation.

• In CallPilot Manager, set the Outdial type for the subscriber’s mailbox to None.

This restricts outdialing calls from the mailbox. See

“Outdial type” on page 24 and

“Changing mailbox settings” on page 35

for more information.

Adding many mailboxes

You can save time by creating multiple mailboxes when you set up CallPilot for the first time, or when you need to add a large number of mailboxes to your system. Adding many mailboxes creates Subscriber mailboxes for the range of extensions that you define. You must use extensions that are not already assigned to mailboxes.

To make the most effective use of adding multiple mailboxes, identify people who need a non-standard Subscriber mailbox. Create these mailboxes individually. Use Add Many Mailboxes to add the remaining mailboxes.

The mailboxes you create using Add Many Mailboxes have these characteristics:

• The mailbox number is the same as the extension number.

• The mailboxes have the same settings for Class of Service, Call Screening, Message Waiting,

Outdialing and Display in Directory.

• The mailbox name is taken from the extension names assigned on your system.

If extension names are not programmed, the mailbox number is used.

• The mailboxes created are uninitialized and ready for initialization by mailbox owners.

A mailbox is not created if:

• a mailbox with the same number already exists

• the extension is used by another mailbox

• the extension is identified as a CallPilot voice port

To add multiple mailboxes

1 Click the Mailbox Administration heading.

2 Click the Add Many Mailboxes link.

The Add Many Mailboxes screen appears.

About mailbox passwords

Each mailbox is protected by a password established by the mailbox owner. When you add a mailbox to CallPilot Manager, the password 0000 is assigned. This is the default password.

To use a mailbox, a mailbox owner must change the default password. The new password must be four to eight digits in length and cannot start with a zero.

If a mailbox owner cannot remember the password, you can reset the password to the default password 0000. Refer to

“To reset a mailbox password” on page 35 .

Note: Change the System Administrator password frequently to minimize the risk of unauthorized activity.

Incorrect password lock-out

In its Class of Service each mailbox is assigned a maximum number of incorrect password attempts. CallPilot records the number of incorrect attempts from the last time the mailbox was accessed successfully. If the number is exceeded, the mailbox owner is “locked-out”. The mailbox cannot be opened until the password is reset. Refer to

“To reset a mailbox password” on page 35 .

Password expiry

In its Class of Service each mailbox is assigned the maximum number of days a password remains active. If the maximum number of days is exceeded, the mailbox password expires. The mailbox owner can open the mailbox, but cannot access messages or perform other mailbox functions until they change the password. Unless the telephone has a two-line display, this announcement plays when the mailbox is opened after the password expires:

“Your current password has expired. You must change your password.

Please enter your new password and press

£.

After the new password is entered the mailbox returns to normal operation.

Note: Set the Class of Service for password expiry to a low value so that mailbox owners must change their password frequently. Mailboxes with a Class of Service with a high or indefinite password expiry interval setting have an increased likelihood of unauthorized use of the CallPilot or Business Communications Manager 2.5 system.

While the mailbox has the default password, the mailbox is vulnerable to unauthorized access.

About Group Lists

With Group Lists you can send messages to multiple recipients. You can create a maximum of 99

Group Lists on your system. Each Group List can contain a maximum of 300 mailboxes. Before you add Group Lists, prepare a group mailbox member list. This list must contain:

• the Group List name – maximum 16 characters long

• the mailbox numbers to include in the group

After you create a Group List, you can change the mailboxes included in the list, record a new list name, view the Group List, or delete the Group List.

About Group List Numbers

During system installation, a number from 0 to 9 (default 9) is assigned as the Group List leading digit. For example, the default Group List numbers are 901 to 999. If the leading digit is 5, the

Group List numbers are 501 to 599. Group List numbers are three digits long.

You can change the Group List leading digit. For more information on changing the Group List leading digit, refer to

“Setting the system properties” on page 87

Setting up the Automated Attendant

About the Automated Attendant

The Automated Attendant answers your company’s incoming telephone lines with a prerecorded greeting selected from the Greeting Table, according to the time of day.

You can record and assign different greetings to the Greeting Table. You can specify which greetings play for particular lines. For example, you can program the system so that callers hear one greeting when they call the sales line, and a different greeting when they call the customer support line. The Greeting Table parameters control the Auto Attendant. Greeting Table parameters include custom prompts, and whether outside callers hear the Auto Attendant menu or a Custom Call Routing menu.

After the greeting, the Automated Attendant Menu offers callers a range of options that they can select using the dialpad of their telephone. If you want to offer a greater range of options and services for incoming calls, you can assign a Custom Call Routing (CCR) menu to play instead of the Automated Attendant Menu. See

“Planning a CCR Tree” on page 61 for information on

creating a CCR menu.

Greeting Tables using the alternate language

If you use primary and alternate languages, we recommend that you assign one Greeting Table to the alternate language. For example, if your company has two incoming lines and you want to have one line assigned to the alternate language, assign the line to the Greeting Table that has greetings recorded in the alternate language. You can record greetings 5, 6, 7 and 8 in the alternate language and assign the greetings to Greeting Table 2 for line 2.

About Company Greetings

Before you record your Company Greetings, decide what type of greetings you want to use for the incoming telephone lines, and what you want the greetings to say. There are four greeting times that reflect the Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Non-business hours. You can prepare four greetings, or you can use the same greeting for each time of day. As you record the greetings, number them from 1 to 4.

An example greeting for each time of day:

1 Morning Greeting: “Good morning. You have reached Touchstone Marketing.”

2 Afternoon Greeting: “Good afternoon. You have reached Touchstone Marketing.”

3 Evening Greeting: “Good evening. You have reached Touchstone Marketing.”

4 Non-business Greeting: “You have reached Touchstone Marketing. Our business hours are

Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Please stay on the line and leave a message.

Thank you for calling.”

Greetings 1 through 4 are assigned by default to all Greeting Tables. This means that Greeting 1 plays as the Morning Greeting for Greeting Table 1, 2, 3 and 4.

If you use only one Greeting Table, the numbered greetings you record from 1 to 4 play automatically. You do not have to assign Greetings 1 to 4 to the table, but you must select the language preference.

If you use a Primary and Alternate Language, record the option

· instruction in the Alternate

Language. For example, if you use English as your Primary Language and French as your

Alternate Language, your main greeting can be in English and the option

· instruction can be in

French. For example:

Good morning. This is Touchstone Marketing. To use our voice messaging service in French, please press

·.

Since the default Automated Attendant Menu prompt does not announce an Alternate Language option, in your greeting you must tell callers to press

· to use the Alternate Language.

Company Greetings can be 0 to 10 minutes in duration. If you need to change the greeting duration, you must change the Class of Service assigned to the System Administrator Mailbox. For

information on how to change the setting, refer to “Changing mailbox settings” on page 35 .

Configuring line answering

The system can answer all your incoming lines, or just the lines you specify. Before the system can answer an incoming line, you must assign the line and set the Answer status to Yes. Each line you configure is answered by Greeting Table 1 unless you specify another table.

You can assign the system to answer incoming calls after a specified number of rings. The number of rings ranges from 0 to 12. If you leave the number of rings at zero, the system answers immediately.

For lines equipped with Calling Line Identification (CLID), you must assign the number of rings to two or more. CLID is not provided until just prior to the second ring, so assigning the number of rings to 0 or 1 prevents CLID from being relayed. Without CLID, personalized greetings, CLID

Routing Table and other features related to CLID do not work.

About Touchtone Gate

With Touchtone Gate incoming calls can be routed more quickly.

With Touchtone Gate you can have the standard voice prompt play or you can record your own custom prompt. If you choose the standard prompt, the following prompt plays after your

Company Greeting: “If you are calling from a tone dial telephone, please press

now. If you are a pulse dialing caller or if you are calling from a rotary dial phone, please hold and you will be transferred.”

Note: If you want to use a custom prompt, you must record it before you enable

Touchtone Gate. It is recommended that you use Greeting 40 as the custom Touchtone

Gate prompt. When Touchtone Gate is enabled, Greeting 40 is the default custom prompt. For more information on recording Greetings, refer to

“Recording a Company

Greeting” on page 48

.

When the tone for 1 is received, the call goes to the Automated Attendant or CCR Tree. If no tone is received, the call is sent back to the receptionist or designated Operator specified by the

Greeting Table. If the attendant is not available, the call is directed to the General Delivery

Mailbox. If the General Delivery Mailbox is not available, the call is disconnected.

The Touchtone Gate voice prompt is not played to internal callers or callers using Feature 981 or

Feature 986.

If you disable Touchtone Gate, re-record the Company Greeting to include “If you are calling from a tone dial telephone, please dial the extension number or press

£ for the company directory. If not, please hold and you will be transferred to the operator.”

About the CLID Routing Table

Set up a CLID Routing Table to control how calls are routed based on their Caller Identification.

The CLID Routing Table routes recognized incoming telephone numbers to the appropriate destinations. You can set up the CLID Routing Table to direct frequent callers to a specific extension or mailbox, CCR Tree or Greeting Table. To use a CLID Table, your incoming lines must be equipped with Caller Identification service.

If an incoming call has a CLID value that matches an entry in the CLID Routing Table, the call is directed according to the CLID Routing Table rather than the Greeting Table. After the call is directed, the call disconnects or returns to the routing according to the Return to Auto-Attendant setting. For more information about the Return to Auto-Attendant setting, refer to

“Setting the

Automated Attendant properties” on page 54

.

You can record your CLID Routing Table entries in the table CLID Routing Table section of the

CallPilot Programming Record.

Telephone numbers in the CLID Routing Table are sorted in numerical order, from the longest number to the shortest. For example:

Destination number Table entry

1 313

2

3

416598

416

Incoming number 3148888 does not match any destination.

Incoming number 4165981111 matches destination 2.

Incoming number 4169998888 matches destination 3.

Incoming number 5198853895 matches destination 4.

Incoming number 5198853896 matches destination 5.

For the CLID Routing Table to work, your company must:

• subscribe to CLID services from your local telephone company

• have the appropriate hardware for your systems (for example, a CI Trunk cartridge)

Custom Call Routing

About Custom Call Routing

With Custom Call Routing (CCR) you can replace Automated Attendant menus with a CCR Tree that offers callers more choices. Callers who reach a CCR Tree hear the CCR Home node immediately after the Company Greeting.

CCR Trees contain paths that callers navigate using their telephone dialpad. By selecting an option from the prompts callers can:

• hear an Information Message

• leave a message in a mailbox

• transfer to an extension or an external number

• go to a sub-menu

To build a CCR Tree you start by creating the options presented in the Home node. You can include up to eight options in the Home node. You record a prompt that informs callers of the

Home node options. You can have up to eight CCR Trees on your system. After you build a CCR

Tree you must assign it to a Greeting Table.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

60 Chapter 7 Custom Call Routing

The Greeting Table specifies which CCR Tree plays to callers. After callers hear the Company

Greeting and the optional Touchtone Gate, they hear the Home node of the CCR Tree instead of the Auto Attendant menu.

The Home node for a CCR Tree can be:

• a menu with choices that lead to other menus, announcements, mailboxes or transfers

• an Information node that plays an announcement

• a Transfer node that transfers callers to an extension or external number

• a Mailbox node that sends callers to a mailbox

Callers navigate through the CCR Tree using their telephone keypad to respond to prompts.

While they listen to a menu callers can:

• choose a menu option by pressing a single digit

• transfer to an extension by entering the extension number

• transfer to a mailbox by pressing * and the mailbox number

• use the Company Directory by pressing #

• transfer to the operator

• switch languages

Planning a CCR Tree

To plan a CCR Tree:

1 Identify the frequently called departments and extensions.

2 Determine which goods and services you want to promote in Information mailboxes.

3 Create mailboxes callers can leave messages in.

4 Decide what type of Home node you should create.

5 Determine destination types.

6 Record prompts and messages. By default, a caller can press

· to hear prompts in an alternate language or

‚ to reach an Operator. These options are not included unless you record them as part of the Home node prompt.

About CCR Tree structure

Home node

After the Company Greeting, a caller hears the Home node message for the CCR Tree. A Home node can offer up to eight options. Callers can select options such as:

• listening to an Information Message in primary or alternate language

• leaving a message

• transferring to an extension or an external number

• choosing from a sub-menu

By default, 0 is reserved for reaching the Operator, and 9 offers the menu in the alternate language.

The Home node is on Level 0. As sub-menus are added to one another, the caller progresses through the levels of the CCR Tree. You can create up to 11 levels (from 0 to 10).

For an example of Paths through a CCR Tree, refer to

“An example of a CCR Tree” on page 64 .

Information Message

An Information Message is a message you record to tell callers about goods or services available from your company. You can tell callers about information such as sales, specials, company events, business hours, price lists, and shipping times. For example:

We’re pleased to announce the arrival of the new FaxEasy line of fax machines. FaxEasy is easy to operate and produces top quality fax images at an affordable price.

You must create Information mailboxes before you can add an Information Message to a CCR

Tree.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

62 Chapter 7 Custom Call Routing

The Home node can be an Information Message

You can program the Home node to play an Information Message. For example:

Come celebrate with us! It’s time for Ideal Office Machines’ annual get-to-know-our-customers picnic. The annual picnic is on the first Sunday of August from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. in Thompson

Park. See you there.

If the Home node is an Information Message, the caller disconnects at the end of the message. The other destination types do not apply. For more information on destination types refer to

“Destination” on page 63

.

Using an alternate language for the Home node prompt

If you record an Alternate Language Home node prompt, you must tell callers about the Alternate

Language option in the Home node message. In the Primary Language Home node prompt tell callers to press

· if they want to hear the message in the Alternate Language. For example:

To hear this message in [the Alternate Language] press

·

. To place an order press

. To add your name to our mailing list press

¤. To reach our sales department press . To speak with the receptionist press

.

Sub-menu

A sub-menu is any menu that callers hear after the Home node. Sub-menus can lead to other sub-menus.

A sub-menu is a prompt that provides callers with another list of options. For example, from the

Home node a caller can press

‹to reach the Sales department and hear the sub-menu options:

To place an order press

. To add your name to our mailing list, press ¤. To speak with a

Customer Service Representative press

. To speak with the receptionist press .

Mailbox node

Create mailbox nodes to give callers a mailbox where they can leave a message.

For example:

You have reached the Ideal Office Machines Order Desk mailbox. After the tone, leave your name, address, telephone number, and the number of the item you want to order. Thank you.

Transfer node

A Transfer node transfers callers to an extension or an external number.

P0919415 03

Chapter 7 Custom Call Routing 63

Destination

The destination is where callers go after they listen to an Information Message or leave a message in a mailbox. Each Information Message and Mailbox node must have a destination:

• Previous: returns the caller to the previous menu

• Home: returns the caller to the Home node

• Disconnect: disconnects the call

You can assign destinations only to Information Messages and Mailbox nodes. To see how

destinations are used in a CCR Tree, refer to “An example of a CCR Tree” on page 64 .

Paths

A Path can be a series of menus, Information Messages, Mailboxes or Transfers. A Path number is the digit that callers press to go to the next level in a CCR Tree. To see how paths route callers through a CCR Tree, refer to

After you determine how many options to offer in a menu, you must determine where each option directs the caller.

After you assign a Menu sub-node, assign another set of options in the next level of tree depth.

Options for each menu can be:

• another Menu

• an Information mailbox

• a Transfer node

• a Mailbox node

You can assign up to eight options to each menu.

A Menu sub-node gives callers single-digit access to another list of options. For example, if your

Home node menu says:

To place an order press

. To add your name to our mailing list press ¤. To reach our sales department press

. To speak with our attendant press .

Callers can press

⁄ to hear more options, such as:

To hear our weekly specials press

. To speak with the Order Desk press ¤.

7 In the Phone Number box, type the extension or external telephone number.

8 Click the Submit button.

About transfers to external numbers

When CallPilot transfers a call using a CCR external transfer, it uses two lines. An incoming line connects the caller to the CCR Tree and an outgoing line transfers the caller to the external phone number. Both lines are used while the caller connects to the external phone number. To optimize the use of external lines, the incoming line can be used to make the external transfer. This type of transfer is called a Link transfer.

Not all phone lines allow Link transfers. Ask your telephone service provider if your lines support

Link transfers before you program CallPilot to use Link transfers.

To perform a Link transfer for a CCR external transfer you must press

£ before the telephone number. For example, for the telephone number:

£fififi⁄¤‹› fififi⁄¤‹› is the telephone number dialed

All Mailbox Activity Report

The Mailbox Activity Report shows seven day usage information for all Subscriber mailboxes on the system.

The starting point of this report is the last full day of activity. For example, if the full day of activity is Tuesday, the report begins on Tuesday and goes back seven days to the previous

Wednesday.

When you print this report, check that the printer has enough paper. Because of the size of this report, print at night or during a slow time. To get the full benefit of this report, print it on the same day each week and reset the statistics after each printing.

The Mailbox Activity Report shows:

• number of messages recorded and their total length and average length

• number of times the maximum message length is reached

• number of messages received and their total length and average length

• number of times the mailbox is accessed for log on or call answering, with total connect minutes and resulting average

• average time before new messages are played

• average time before messages are deleted

• number of times when log on authentication fails three times in succession. (A possible attempt at unauthorized access to a mailbox.)

• cumulative averages for the above

• whether Primary, Alternate and CLID-based Greetings are recorded

After you generate this report, you can reset the statistics to set the counters to zero. If you reset the statistics, all the Subscriber mailboxes are affected, not just a selected mailbox.

Event Log Report

The Event Log Report lists events that can help you diagnose system problems.

Events are shown with their date, time and error message.

CCR Tree Usage Report

This report shows the Tree number, the Greeting Tables the CCR Tree is assigned to, the date the

Tree was last modified, and the Tree status. The report also shows the Path, type, description, destination, a seven-day rolling count of the number of calls received by the Tree and the number of times each path is visited. Print the Custom Call Routing Report on the same day each week to get an accurate representation of CCR activity.

If a CCR Tree is changed, for example if it is saved or deleted, the current usage statistics are cleared.

Generate this report before you modify a CCR Tree.

The CCR Tree Report shows for the previous seven days:

• the number of calls received by the CCR Tree

• the number of times each node was visited

• the Greeting Table from which the CCR Tree is referenced

• the last seven days for which record collection is complete. The day the report is generated is not included because data collection is not complete for this day.

• the most recent complete day in the left column

• usage data as zeroes for dates prior to the last change date. Statistics for the day of the change include only activity that occurs after the modification is made.

The CCR Tree Report shows:

Path calls for each day

The selections a caller makes to reach a node. Usually the Home node is 0, although callers do not need to press a key to reach the Home node.

Below each day is listed how many times callers accessed the node, not including any re-prompting.

Total calls

The calls for each day details:

• each call that arrives at the Tree

• calls that go from the Home node to sub-nodes

• calls that are sent to the node from CLID-based routing

• calls that return to a Menu node by the previous menu operation (by pressing • at a sub-menu, or by the Next Action setting)

The difference between the count for a menu and the sum of the counts for its sub-node is the number of times callers exit the menu by pressing

or hanging up.

Total Calls shows calls that go to the Home node from a Greeting Table and calls that go to any node in the CCR Tree from CLID-based routing.

In the absence of CLID-based Routing, the count of the Home node is usually the same as the Total Calls if the Home node is an Information node.

The count can be higher if the Home node is a Menu node because the count of any Menu node is included if the caller returns to the menu.

Dialing Translation

About Dialing Translation

Dialing translation is a process by which the number of an incoming call from a public network is translated by a translation table into a number that can be recognized and dialed on the local network using the Reply feature.

For Dialing Translation to occur, you must create a Dialing Translation Table that translates the digits of an external number into a number that can be dialed by CallPilot. CallPilot consults the restrictions and schedules tables before dialing the number.

The Dialing Translation Tables are necessary only for the Reply feature. CallPilot does not require the tables to function normally.

How the Dialing Translation Table works

A phone number is derived from information attached to an incoming Caller ID message. The number is then searched for by the CallPilot in the Dialing Translation Table. If the leading digits of the telephone number match a Dialing Translation Table Input value (the number CallPilot searches for in the Dialing Translation Table), the Output value is substituted for the Input value.

This change results in a telephone number that can be dialed on the local network. Changing the number usually involves removing an area code or inserting an access code, based on the dialing rules of the local network. For example, if a local number is prefixed with the long distance code 1, it is removed by the Dialing Translation Table.

The Dialing Translation process is immediate so calls do not take any longer to dial. Some telephone numbers do not need to be changed before dialing. CallPilot functions without a Dialing

Translation Table.

Phone number Translation

The Dialing Translation Table must define each possible case where a change is needed to allow the number to be dialed on the local network.

The Dialing Translation Table changes Network extensions into numbers that can be dialed on the local network. The Network extension form of a phone number is the usual form in which the number appears. For example, the phone number 403-555-5050, in its Network extension form, must be translated into a number that can be dialed on the local telephone network. The Dialing

Translation Table follows the rules required to make the call.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

90 Chapter 11 Dialing Translation

Examples of Dialing Translation Tables

The following tables are examples of Dialing Translation Tables and how they function. Every

Dialing Translation Table entry consists of an Input value column and an Output value column.

The values in the Input column represent the leading digits of the Network extensions which, if matched, are replaced by the corresponding value in the Output column. The * after a value signifies any digits in the telephone number that remain to be dialed. CallPilot automatically adds the * after every Input and Output value.

A telephone number either matches or does not match a specific Input value.

Explanation

The Table does not attempt to translate international telephone numbers.

The Table removes the 416 area code and dials all calls as 7 digits.

These telephone exchanges can be dialed as local (no long distance charges)

10 digit calls from the 416 area.

All other 905 numbers not listed in the Input column are long distance numbers and must be dialed as 11 digit long distance numbers.

Any numbers that start with digits other than 011, 416 and 905 are long distance, and have 1 added as a prefix.

Explanation

The Table does not attempt to translate international telephone numbers.

Due to the site location, some calls can be dialed as local 7 digit numbers.

All other 206 numbers require 11 digit long distance dialing.

These 360 numbers can be dialed as 10 digit local numbers...

... but all other 360 numbers are 11 digits long distance numbers.

All numbers starting with other than 011, 206 and 360 are long distance and have 1 added as a prefix.

An example of a Dialing Translation Table from a site in Mountainview, California

INPUT OUTPUT Explanation

The Dialing Translation Table is empty. The local network in

Mountainview supports 10 digit national dialing with recognized long distance charging.

In situations like the Mountainview example, there is no need to build a

Dialing Translation Table.

Network Access

The Dialing Table Translation results in a number that can be dialed on the local network. The final step is to prefix any digits required to reach the local network from your Business

Communications Manager 2.5 or Norstar system. For systems that are behind a PBX or PABX, typically in North America · must be prefixed to the telephone number. For systems attached to

Central Office (CO) lines no digits need to be prefixed.

Dialing Translation properties

Dialing Translation is controlled by four properties:

Long distance access code

This prefix, if specified, is removed from any numbers entered by the subscriber if it is not needed to make the call. This simplifies the creation of the Dialing Translation Table. For North America, set the long distance access code to 1. The default for this parameter is none. The field for this parameter is a maximum of 1 digit.

Area code

If the phone number entered appears to be missing an area code, an area code is prefixed to the number. The area code is considered missing if the number has fewer than 10 digits. The default for this parameter is none. The field for this parameter is a maximum of 6 digits. If this parameter is set to none, no area code is prefixed to the telephone number.

Access code

In North America, the access code is usually 9. This number is prefixed to all numbers after

Translation to access the local telephone network. If your system is attached directly to CO lines, set the Access Code to none. The default for this parameter is none. The field for this parameter is a maximum of 2 digits.

Reply translation

If set to N (no), the caller must manually trim the Caller ID message information for the number to be dialed on the local network. If the reply translation is set to Y (yes), then the Reply feature uses the Dialing Translation Table to dial the call. The default for this parameter is N.

To make it easier for subscribers, set the Reply Translation to Y if a Dialing Translation Table is created. If a Dialing Translation Table is not created, set the Reply Translation to N.

Building a Dialing Translation Table

To build a Dialing Translation Table, you must enter an Input value and an Output value for each entry. The Input value is the number that the CallPilot 150 or Business Communications Manager

2.5 system looks up in the Dialing Translation Table. If the corresponding entry matches, the system substitutes the Output value for the Input value. The resulting number is ready to dial on the local network. Refer to

“An example of a Dialing Translation Table from a site in metropolitan

Information mailbox messages

Your business or departments within your business can use Information mailboxes to provide callers with messages and announcements. You or another person responsible for the Information mailbox can record and update the Information mailbox message.

You can use Information mailbox messages to:

• announce sales

• provide product lists

• announce special events

Make it easy for callers to access Information mailbox messages by mentioning the Information mailbox in the Automated Attendant, or by asking the operator to route enquiries to the

Information mailbox.

Callers cannot leave messages in an Information mailbox. Callers automatically disconnect after they listen to an Information mailbox message.

About recording an Information mailbox message

Before you record an Information mailbox message, you must determine what the message includes. As you prepare the message, be sure to include important times and dates.

For example: “Paddy’s Dance Studio proudly presents an extravaganza of dance. The entertainment begins at 8:00 pm on the fourth of July. Toddlers tap is in the White Room. Folk dance is in the Green Room. Classical ballet is in the Pink Room. Contemporary jazz is in the Blue

Room. The studio and recital rooms are located at 222 Main Street.”

Write the message down and practice reading it aloud. When you are confident the message includes everything you want it to, record the message. If you use a phone system with bilingual capability, you must record the Information mailbox message in both languages.

An Information mailbox message can be either a Primary or an Alternate mailbox greeting.

Use the procedure

2.5 is set to answer the line.

• All the channels can be busy. Try calling back. Your call is answered when a channel is available.

• Verify that greetings 1 to 8 are recorded. These greetings default to the Greeting Tables and

must be recorded for the Automated Attendant to operate. Refer to “Setting up a Greeting

Table” on page 48 .

• If the channels are frequently busy, it indicates there is too much activity. Contact your advice line or sales representative.

CLID information is lost

The Automated Attendant must be set to answer after two or more rings for CallPilot Manager to record call log information related to an incoming call. For information about setting the number

of rings, refer to “Configuring line answering” on page 53 .

The Automated Attendant transfers some callers to the General Delivery Mailbox

The system requires a tone dial telephone signal and a minimum voice level. The system waits for a caller to respond. If a response is not received, the caller is transferred to the Receptionist or designated Operator. If they are not available, the caller is automatically transferred to the General

Delivery Mailbox. The caller is transferred to the General Delivery Mailbox if an extension does not have a mailbox.

For the system to transfer calls correctly, each mailbox must have a unique extension number. To verify that mailboxes have a unique extension number, print the Directory Report.

Greetings play at the wrong time of day

There are four possible causes for this problem:

• The Business Open setting is not selected. Select the Business Open check box. Refer to

“Changing the Business Open setting” on page 101 for information.

• The wrong greeting numbers are assigned to the Greeting Table.

• The business hours are set incorrectly.

• The system time and date are incorrect for your telephone system.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

114 Chapter 15 Troubleshooting CallPilot

Greetings play on the wrong line

If you find the information is incorrect, you must reassign lines to the Greeting Table. Refer to

“Configuring line answering” on page 53 .

A telephone cannot be forwarded to the system

If you try to forward your incoming calls to the system and the display shows Forward denied , it is possible that you are forwarding to the wrong extension number. Use Feature 985 to display the correct extension number for the system, and compare this number to the extension that your telephone is forwarded to.

Feature 981 produces a Log prompt on the telephone display

Whenever the Log prompt appears on the display, it can be caused by the telephone not having an assigned mailbox. If the extension does not have an assigned mailbox, CallPilot 150 or Business

Communications Manager 2.5 requests both a mailbox number and a password.

A subscriber cannot reply to an external caller or use Off-premise Message Notification or

Outbound Transfer

An Outdial type must be assigned before a subscriber can reply to an external caller using the

Reply feature or use Off-premise Message Notification or Outbound Transfer. Before a subscriber can reply to a message from an external caller, an Outdial type must be assigned.

The default for Outdial type is None. Until you assign a line or line pool as the Outdial type for a mailbox, the mailbox owner can use the Reply feature to return calls from internal extensions only,

Off-premise Message Notification for internal extensions only and Outbound Transfer for internal extensions only.

Telephone extension and mailbox numbers are different lengths

For CallPilot Manager to work properly, the mailbox number length must match the extension number length assigned to the system. If the extension number length is changed on the system, you must re-initialize and reprogram CallPilot.

You cannot access a line or a line pool

Check that your system supports the feature you are trying to use. If calls are not completed when you try to reply to a CLID message or reach an Off-premise Message Notification number, ensure

Outdialing is assigned, is available and is correctly configured. For more information refer to your system documentation.

Personalized greetings do not play

Personalized greetings do not play if a telephone is on Call Forward Busy or Call Forward All

Calls to the CallPilot extension number. If you use analog lines and a telephone is CFB or CFAC,

Personalized greetings depend on the CLID information that is received prior to the second ring.

Personalized greetings do not play if the Auto Attendant is set to answer at 0 or 1 ring. The

Primary or Alternate Personal Mailbox Greeting plays instead. Change the number of rings to 2 or more.

Chapter 15 Troubleshooting CallPilot 115

Mailboxes do not accept messages

A mailbox does not accept messages if:

• it is not initialized

• CallPilot message storage capacity is full

Messages are removed from a mailbox

If messages are being removed, check the message retention period in the mailbox Class of

Service. To check the Class of Service, refer to

“Editing a Class of Service” on page 36 .

A mailbox owner lost the mailbox password

A forgotten password cannot be recovered. The password associated with the mailbox must be reset to the default password 0000. After a password has been reset to the default, the mailbox owner must change it in order to use the mailbox. To reset a password, refer to

“Changing mailbox settings” on page 35

.

A mailbox owner cannot access their mailbox

Each mailbox is assigned a maximum number of incorrect password attempts in its Class of

Service. CallPilot records the number of incorrect attempts from the last time the mailbox was successfully accessed. If the number is exceeded the mailbox owner is “locked-out” and hears the message “This mailbox is locked to prevent unauthorized access. Contact your administrator for

assistance.” The mailbox cannot be opened again until the you reset the password. To reset a password, refer to

“Changing mailbox settings” on page 35

.

A mailbox is not in the Company Directory

Verify the mailbox is initialized. If the mailbox is not initialized, it does not appear in the

Company Directory. Verify the Company Directory property for the mailbox is set to Yes. Refer to

“Changing mailbox settings” on page 35 .

Calls are answered by the wrong mailbox

Verify the correct extension is assigned to the mailbox.

A mailbox cannot be added to CallPilot Manager

Ensure that the mailbox is not already added. Mailbox numbers must be unique. Check that the number of mailboxes on your system has not been exceeded. If you have not exceeded the number of mailboxes on your system, you can purchase a software authorization code to add more mailboxes. On CallPilot 150 you can have a maximum of 200 subscriber mailboxes. On Business

Communications Manager 2.5 you can have a maximum of 998 subscriber mailboxes.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

116 Chapter 15 Troubleshooting CallPilot

Incomplete messages are received in a mailbox, or “Message delivered” plays while recording a message or a CallPilot session ends unexpectedly

These situations can be caused by a problem called Talk Off. Talk Off occurs if CallPilot interprets certain voice patterns as Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) dialing tones. DTMF dialing tones are produced when buttons are pressed on a touch dial telephone. When you press a button on the dialpad, CallPilot receives a DTMF dialing tone and performs the correct operation. For example, after you enter your mailbox password, you can press the

£ button. The DTMF dialing tone sent to CallPilot indicates you have finished entering your password.

Some voice patterns are the same as DTMF dialing tones. This can make CallPilot function incorrectly. For example, if in the middle of a message you say something that sounds like a

DTMF dialing tone created by pressing the

£ button, the recording session ends. Correcting Talk

Off requires adjustments to your CallPilot system. Call your advice line for more information.

You cannot create a Group List

The maximum number of Group Lists that can be created is 99. The CallPilot Group List must be enabled during installation. If the Group List feature is not enabled, you cannot create a Group

List.

CallPilot does not accept a Path number for a CCR Tree

If you enter an incorrect digit while assigning a Path number, an error message appears. The possible causes are:

• you entered an incorrect Path number. You can use only numbers 1 through 8 as Path numbers. Do not use 0 or 9 as Path numbers.

• you attempted to exceed the maximum number of Paths.

• you are trying to access a level of a Tree whose previous level does not include a Menu node.

You must add a Menu node to the first level to let callers move to the second level.

A CCR Tree cannot be deleted

A Tree cannot be deleted while it is in use. You must disable the Tree before you can delete it.

Note:

For more information about deleting the Tree, refer to “Deleting a CCR Tree” on page 75

.

Leave Message mailbox for a CCR Tree is full

The mailbox is equipped with a Never Full Mailbox feature, which lets a caller leave a message in the mailbox, even if the mailbox is “full”. The message is stored, but cannot be accessed until the mailbox owner deletes some of the messages in the mailbox.

If more message time is required, you can change the mailbox Class of Service. For more

information, refer to “Editing a Class of Service” on page 36 .

Chapter 16

CallPilot configuration tips

This chapter describes system configuration enhancements that maximize the efficiency of

CallPilot.

Delayed answering by the Automated Attendant

The Automated Attendant can answer any call on specified Central Office (CO) telephone lines after a specified number of rings. CallPilot answers incoming calls if the Installer programs

CallPilot to be the prime telephone for one or more designated CO lines. The Delay Ring Transfer

(DRT) feature transfers unanswered calls on these lines to the Automated Attendant after the specified number of rings.

Note: DRT applies only to incoming calls on the assigned line. It does not affect extension calls between telephones.

Ringing lines and answer buttons

If two or more telephones have a ringing line appearance of the same incoming telephone line, and one of these telephones is programmed with the Call Forward All Calls (CFAC) or Call Forward

No Answer (CFNA) features, incoming calls on the incoming telephone line are directed to the mailbox of the programmed telephone.

For example, if a marketing receptionist’s telephone has a ringing line appearance of the marketing director’s telephone, and the receptionist’s telephone is call forwarded to CallPilot, incoming calls transfer to the receptionist’s mailbox. This is also true if the receptionist’s telephone is CFNA to CallPilot and the number of specified rings on the receptionist’s telephone is fewer than the specified rings on the marketing director’s telephone.

Note: CFAC and CFNA do not affect calls on a telephone’s non-ringing lines. For example, if a receptionist’s telephone has a non-ringing appearance of another telephone’s CO line, and the receptionist’s telephone is CFAC or CFNA to CallPilot, incoming calls on this line are not affected.

Ringing Answer button

If one or more telephones have a Ringing Answer Button for another telephone, and one of these is

CFAC or CFNA to CallPilot, all incoming calls go to the mailbox of the call forwarded telephone.

If two or more of these telephones are CFAC to CallPilot, all calls go to the mailbox of the telephone that is connected to the lowest numbered station port on the system.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

118 Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips

Using Call Forward All Calls (CFAC) and Call Forward No

Answer (CFNA)

If a subscriber does not want to take any calls for a period of time, they can forward their telephone to their mailbox using CFAC. When forwarded, all calls to the mailbox owner’s extension transfer to their mailbox.

To call forward to a mailbox, press

≤·°›.

To cancel call forward:

Press

≤£› or press CANCEL or press

∞.

Note: If you use CFAC, you cannot have any lines or answer DNs programmed to ring at your set because these calls will go to your mailbox.

How to set up CallPilot for different businesses

There are several ways to set up CallPilot in your company. How you set up CallPilot depends on whether you use a Business Communications Manager or Norstar telephone system, and how many CO lines you use.

Here are examples of CallPilot configurations for a small and a medium company, and some useful application tips.

CallPilot for a small business

On Your Toes Dance Studio

CallPilot is the Call Forward No Answer (CFNA) extension for all the telephones in the office.

This means that any call that is not answered by a mailbox owner transfers to their mailbox.

Each mailbox owner has buttons programmed on their display telephone for the CallPilot Leave

Message feature (

≤·°‚) and the Open Mailbox feature (≤·°⁄). This gives easy access to these frequently used features.

Employees have a mailbox number that is the same as their telephone extension. All mailbox owners have initialized their mailbox and recorded a Personal Mailbox Greeting.

The central receptionist

The On Your Toes Dance Studio’s receptionist handles all calls from the studio’s published telephone number. If the receptionist does not answer the telephone within four rings, the

Automated Attendant answers the call. The receptionist is also the Norstar designated Operator.

Whenever a caller presses ‚ to speak with the operator, the call transfers back to the receptionist.

Here is how On Your Toes Dance Studio’s communication system works.

The On Your Toes Dance Studio’s public telephone number is 555-2468. The studio subscribes to custom calling services from the telephone company. This number forwards to any available

(non-busy) line in a group of six lines. All six lines appear on the receptionist telephone.

CallPilot is the Prime Set for each of the six lines. The Delayed Ring Transfer (DRT) feature is set to forward unanswered lines to the Automated Attendant. The DRT to Prime is set to Yes, and the

DRT Delay is set to four.

Note: Delayed Ring Transfer is a system-wide call handling feature. All lines programmed as DRT to Prime are forwarded after four rings. This is done by setting the

Prime Set of the line to the CallPilot extension.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

120 Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips

Greeting Table 1 for On Your Toes

Greeting 1

“Good morning. You have reached On Your Toes Dance Studio. The studio is closed at this time. Stay on the line to leave a message.”

The CallPilot voice prompts play after the greeting. You can make

Company Greetings up to five minutes long.

Greeting 2

Greeting 3

Greeting 4

“Good afternoon. You have reached On Your Toes Dance Studio.”

“Good evening. You have reached On Your Toes Dance Studio.”

“You have reached On Your Toes Dance Studio. The studio is closed at this time. Stay on the line to leave a message.”

CallPilot uses Greeting Table 1 to answer calls after four rings. Depending on the time of day, different recorded greetings play for Morning, Afternoon, and Evening. When the Business Status is No, the Non-business Hours Greeting plays.

Note: Lines must be assigned to a Greeting Table before the Greeting Table greetings are used.

The Costume Room

The Costume Room has one telephone with a CallPilot mailbox. Calls are directed to the Costume

Room Attendant by the receptionist or the Automated Attendant. When the Attendant is not available, the caller is forwarded to the Costume Room mailbox. The mailbox primary message says:

You have reached the Costume Room. No one is available to take your call. Please leave your name and number and a brief message after the tone and we will return your call as soon as

possible.

P0919415 03

Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips 121

CallPilot for a medium business

Bridge Stone Engineering

CallPilot is assigned as the Call Forward No Answer (CFNA) extension for all telephones in the office. This means that any call that is not answered by a mailbox owner transfers to their mailbox.

Subscribers have buttons programmed on their display telephone for the CallPilot Leave Message

(

≤·°‚) and Open Mailbox (≤·°⁄). This gives easy access to these frequently used features.

Employees have a mailbox number that is the same as their telephone extension. Subscribers have initialized their mailbox and recorded a Personal Mailbox Greeting.

When the receptionist is not available, callers use Custom Call Routing to route their call along a call path.

The central receptionist

Bridge Stone’s receptionist handles all calls from the published telephone number. When the receptionist is unable to answer the telephone within four rings, the Automated Attendant answers the call. The receptionist is also the designated Operator. When a caller presses

‚ to speak with the operator, the caller transfers to the receptionist.

Here is how Bridge Stone’s communication system works.

Bridge Stone’s public telephone number is 123-1234. All lines appear on the receptionist’s telephone. CallPilot is the Prime Set for each of the six lines. The Delayed Ring Transfer (DRT) feature forwards unanswered lines to the Automated Attendant.

Note: Delayed Ring Transfer is a system-wide call handling feature. All lines programmed as DRT to Prime are forwarded after four rings. This is done by setting the

Prime Set of the line to the CallPilot extension.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

122 Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips

Greeting Table 1 for Bridge Stone Engineering

Greeting 1

“Good morning. You have reached Bridge Stone Engineering.”

The CCR Home Menu plays after the greeting. You can make Company

Greetings up to five minutes long.

Greeting 2

Greeting 3

Greeting 4

“Good afternoon. You have reached Bridge Stone Engineering.”

“Good evening. You have reached Bridge Stone Engineering.”

“You have reached Bridge Stone Engineering. The office is closed at this time. Stay on the line to leave a message.”

CallPilot uses Greeting Table 1 to answer calls after four rings. Depending on the time of day, different recorded greetings play for the Morning, Afternoon, and Evening. When the Business

Status is No, the Non-business Hours Greeting plays.

Greeting Table 1 answers calls using greetings 1 through 4. Greetings 1 through 4 play unless you assign different greetings. When the Greeting Table was configured, English was chosen as the

Primary Language.

Note: Lines used must be assigned to the Greeting Table before the Greeting Table greetings are used.

After the Company Greeting the CCR Home Menu voice prompt plays. This menu gives callers a list of single digit options. After callers listen to the Home Menu, they select an option by pressing a number on any tone dial telephone. For example:

“To speak to our customer service representative, press ⁄ . To reach our sales department, press

¤ . To reach our shipping and receiving department, press ‹ . To speak with our receptionist, press

.

The Customer Service and Sales department

This department has two receptionists, two customer service representatives, two sales agents, a sales manager, and a customer service manager. CallPilot is set up to answer all calls. Callers can select either customer service or sales from the CCR Home Menu voice prompt.

Incoming calls for customer service transfer directly to the customer service receptionist.

Incoming calls for sales transfer directly to the sales receptionist.

P0919415 03

Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips 123

The managers

Bridge Stone managers have a personal CO line that appears on their private telephone and their receptionist’s telephone. The receptionists answer the managers’ calls, and then transfer the calls to the manager’s telephone.

If a manager is unavailable to take a call, the call rings back at the receptionist’s set. The receptionist handles the call by asking the caller to leave a voice message in the manager’s mailbox. If the caller wants to leave a message, the receptionist transfers the caller using the

CallPilot Transfer feature

≤·°fl.

When CallPilot is set up this way, CFNA for the manager’s set is not used. The receptionist answers the manager’s calls and uses CallPilot’s Transfer feature to transfer the caller to the manager’s telephone. The CallPilot Transfer Callback Feature returns the call to the receptionist’s telephone if a manager is not available to take a call.

Note: The receptionist’s telephone has a ringing line appearance. This telephone cannot be forwarded to another telephone.

Shipping and Receiving

The employees in this department share the same telephone. This department uses one telephone line that is assigned to the loading dock. This line is assigned to Path 3 of the CCR Home Menu.

The shipping and receiving department mailbox greeting informs callers they can leave a message or press ‚ to speak with the receptionist.

Feature compatibility

This section describes how system features interact with CallPilot.

ATA 2 and ASM

One or more analog single-line sets can be connected to telephone system using an Analog

Terminal Adapter or an Analog Station Module. This type of set works with DTMF tones to allow access to CallPilot options through the dialpad only. Rotary dials cannot be used internally with

CallPilot.

Answer buttons

For information about Answer Buttons, refer to

“Ringing Answer button” on page 117 .

Autodial (internal)

To determine the CallPilot extension, press

≤·°fi.

You can use autodial for Busy Lamp Field (BLF) indication for all voice channels. This allows

CallPilot channels to be monitored during busy periods.

Automatic Set Relocation

Must be set to No when changing the CallPilot extension and connections between the

Norstartelephone system.

Call Forward All Calls (CFAC)

Any ringing line or answer button appearance on a set forwards to the extension specified by the call forwarded. If CFAC is used a caller immediately transfers to the mailbox of the CFAC extension.

Call Forward No Answer (CFNA)

Any ringing line appearance on a set is CFNA to the extension specified after the programmed number of rings.

CFNA is not applicable in an Automated Attendant application. If Delayed Ring Transfer (DRT) is being used for CallPilot answering, ensure that the number of rings for CFNA on any of the sets is equal to or higher than the number of rings for DRT.

CFNA takes precedence over DRT and Transfer Callback if it has a lower number of rings.

Camp On

The Camp On feature cannot be used to access CallPilot. If a caller calls the extension and there is no answer, the caller cannot invoke the Camp On feature. Advise the caller to wait a few moments and try the CallPilot extension again.

P0919415 03

Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips 125

Delayed Ring Transfer (DRT)

To use CallPilot as a secondary line answering position, set DRT:

1 Assign the CallPilot extension as the prime extension for the specified lines that are to be DRT to CallPilot.

2 Set DRT to Yes.

3 Set DRT Delay from one to six rings.

4 Assign a Greeting Table to each line that is to be DRT to CallPilot.

5 Set the CallPilot Answer option to No for the lines that are DRT to CallPilot.

Note: If DRT is used for CallPilot Answering, and telephones with a ringing line appearance forward to CallPilot, a caller immediately transfers to the mailbox of the

CFAC set.

Disconnect Supervision

With Line Disconnect Supervision, if a caller hangs up after reaching the Automated Attendant,

CallPilot immediately breaks the connection. Disconnect Supervision results in fewer ‘phantom’ messages in the General Delivery Mailbox and prevents CallPilot ports from being occupied.

Do Not Disturb (DND)

Stops all tones and ringing to a set. When a call transfers to a set with DND activated, the call appears as a flashing indicator on an available line. The Automated Attendant transfers the caller to the mailbox associated with the telephone.

Hold

A mailbox owner cannot put a session on hold. If the hold button is pressed during a CallPilot programming session, CallPilot disconnects, except if Automatic Hold is used to transfer a caller to a mailbox or an extension. CallPilot ignores Held Line Reminder tones.

Intercom Numbers

Inside callers can access CallPilot by pressing an intercom button and entering the extension.

Access to the CallPilot feature codes and “Message for you” indication requires an intercom button on the set.

An intercom button is required to notify an extension of an incoming transfer.

Language choice

The CallPilot language capability is independent of the telephone system’s language selection for a set. CallPilot language availability is determined by the Class of Service assigned to a mailbox.

Note: The CallPilot language option is enabled after a subscriber starts a session.

CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide

126 Chapter 16 CallPilot configuration tips

Lines

If a line programmed for the Automated Attendant appears on a set, it rings when CallPilot transfers the call. If a line programmed to be answered by the Automated Attendant does not appear on a set, a call is transferred to an intercom line appearing on the intercom button.

Message Send/Reply/Waiting

Any message notification left by an internal caller can be replied to using the CallPilot message reply options. After listening to a message, a subscriber can forward a copy of the message to another mailbox or call the sender of the message.

Note: If a subscriber replies to a message from a one line display phone (M7100, T7100,

M7208 or T7208), the subscriber must press

· after listening to the message.

Night Service

When Night Service is activated and the CallPilot prime extension is specified as the Night Ring extension for an incoming line, a caller immediately hears the CallPilot Automated Attendant.

Prime Set (multiple)

When configuring lines, CallPilot can be designated as the prime extension. CallPilot answers with the Automated Attendant.

Private line

When private lines are assigned to a set programmed to ring, CFNA to CallPilot is answered by the set’s mailbox. If a private line is the only appearance on that set, CallPilot transfers calls through the intercom button.

Note: If the private line is not programmed to ring, CFNA is not activated.

Ringing line preference

Ringing lines programmed to telephone extensions are recognized by CallPilot. Features such as

CFNA and CFAC to CallPilot are not recognized by non-ringing lines programmed to a telephone

extension. Refer to “Call Forward No Answer (CFNA)” on page 124 , “Call Forward All Calls

(CFAC)” on page 124

and

“Answer buttons” on page 124

.

Selective Call Forward

Refer to “Do Not Disturb (DND)” on page 125 .

Service Modes

With the Service Modes feature you can program the telephone system to forward all incoming calls to CallPilot during specific time periods such as lunch time or non-business hours. CallPilot answers with the Automated Attendant.

Transfer Callback

Calls through the Automated Attendant that transfer to an extension without CFNA are routed by

Transfer Callback to CallPilot after the designated number of rings. The CFNA/Transfer Callback feature is programmed so that calls with the fewest rings take precedence.
