Voice Mailboxes on the PBX
Voice Mailbox
Voice Mailbox
A voice mailbox can be operated like a local answering machine. Depending on its setting, it
records incoming calls and left messages as audio files (*.wav).
A fax box receives incoming telefaxes and stores them as *.pdf files. The maximum length of
a telefax is 50 pages.
Voice messages, announcements and telefaxes are not stored in the telephone but in the PBX
The size of a voice mail/fax box and the permission to use it are set by the PBX. A voice mail/
fax box can be assigned to an individual subscriber or to a group. In addition, a subscriber can
be granted permission for several voice mail/fax boxes.
Important: The voice mailbox function is only available for COMpact 4000,
COMpact 5010 VoIP, COMpact 5020 VoIP, COMpact 5000/R and
COMmander 6000/R/RX PBXs.
In some PBXs you will need to install another module (available as an
optional extra) to run a voice mail/fax box.
COMmander 6000/R/RX: COMmander VMF module
COMpact 5010 VoIP: COMpact 2VoIP module
COMpact 5020 VoIP: COMpact 2VoIP or 6VoIP module
If the local answering machine and a voice mail/fax box are both enabled on
a subscriber's telephone and the SD card is plugged in, it is the local
answering machine that accepts the incoming calls.
