Group Calling Delay Announcements 3
Use this procedure to designate the announcement devices used to play
messages to callers while they are waiting in the queue.
As of Release 5.0, 10 primary and one secondary announcement devices can be
designated for each calling group; however, more than one calling group can use
the same announcement device. The extensions to which the delay
announcement devices are connected should not be programmed as calling
group members.
If the extension jack or MFM was previously programmed as a regular extension,
you must remove all line/trunk button assignments before you designate the
extension jack as a delay announcement device.
NOTE:NOTE:NOTE:
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), a delay
announcement device must be in the local system, not in a remote
networked system.
