Voice Announce Unit

Model Number: VB3632
The Voice Announce Unit (VAU) is an optional unit for use with the DBS. It is connected to
digital extension ports. The VAU provides recorded messages to callers, then transfers them
to another extension following the callers' DTMF dialled instructions.
Each Voice Announce Unit contains two answering circuits each can have a different
message or messages recorded depending upon DIP switch settings. Each circuit is
associated with one DEC port. Circuit 1 for port 1 and circuit 2 for port 2.
The recorded messages and programmed information have a battery backup which will hold
the data for up to 5 days in the event of a power failure once the unit has been installed for
48 hours.
When the VAU detects a call, it answers and plays a recorded message. If the VAU is used
to back up an operator, or group of people, a delay to answer can be inserted, this allows the
original persons time to answer the call if they are available. Recall ringing will override the
delay to answer timer and the call will be answered immediately.
In the event that a caller is using an LD/pulse dialling telephone, or the DTMF level is low,
the VAU will automatically transfer the call to a predetermined extension.
