Voice Processing Modules - Comdial DX-80 Technical Manual

Overview

1.2.3 VOICE PROCESSING MODULES

The DX-80 provides several voice processing (or voice mail) options. The optional voice processors
that you can add to the DX-80 are fixed system resources that do not require peripheral device ports
(analog or digital). This significant advantage means that the DX-80 VP options can be added to any
DX-80 configuration without "port loss" thus eliminating the ill effects of reducing the overall
capacity of the system when the voice processor is connected. Because the DX-80 doesn't use conven-
tional peripheral ports to interface the VPs, we refer to the VP connectivity in terms of "channels."
• AAM (Automated Attendant Module): The AAM provides four channels for automated
attendant operation only. The AAM is then capable of handling four calls simultaneously.
Callers answered by the AAM are greeted by one of four greetings associated with the DX-80
mode of operation (Day / Evening / Alternate / Temporary). Various other announcements are
also included for caller processing, refer to the DX-80 Technical Manual, Volume II,
Programming for further details.
• 7271C (Flash-based, four port VM with Automated Attendant): The 7271 provides four
channels for automated attendant and voice mail operation. The 7271 is equipped to support up
to 100 voice mailboxes and 3.2 hours of message storage (including the various greeting
announcements).
• 7270C (Hard Drive-based, four port VM with Automated Attendant): The 7270C provides
four channels for automated attendant and voice mail operation. The 7270C is equipped to
support up to 2000 voice mailboxes and 150 hours of message storage (including the various
greeting announcements).
• 7272 (Four port expansion card): The 7272 is added to the 7271C or 7270C to increase the total
message storage time to 4.5 hours.
All of the these voice processors are connected to the DX-80 CPM via specific interface sockets.
Note: For details on installing the 7271C and 7270C refer to the Corporate Office DX Installation
Instructions, IMI72-005.
