Chapter 2 Using CallPilot How CallPilot works CallPilot works with the telephone system to provide an automated receptionist service. CallPilot answers incoming calls, routes them to extensions and mailboxes in the system, and provides message taking capability. About display phones One line display phones You can use one line display phones for most CallPilot sessions. If you use a one line display phone, the display shows the CallPilot display command line.

This type of set works with Dual-Tone MultiFrequency (DTMF) tones to allow access to CallPilot options through the dialpad only. Rotary dials cannot be used internally with CallPilot.
Chapter 2 Using CallPilot An example of a display with fewer than 16 characters, where the command line prompt remains on the display is the Pswd: command line prompt.

Chapter 2 Using CallPilot 13 Automated Attendant The Automated Attendant acts as a receptionist for incoming calls. When it is enabled, the Automated Attendant answers your company’s incoming phone lines depending on the time of day. If callers know which option they want, they can interrupt the Automated Attendant by entering their selection on the dialpad of any tone-dial phone.
Chapter 2 Using CallPilot Types of mailboxes A mailbox is a storage place for messages. There are three types of mailboxes: • • • Subscriber mailboxes, which include Guest mailboxes Information mailboxes Special mailboxes, which include the General Delivery Mailbox and the System Administrator Mailbox Other types of mailboxes are available on your system if you have the Network Messaging or the Fax option installed.
