To turn on your Voice Mailbox
When an extension is allocated a Mailbox 'Forward' on no answer is
automatically set to the Voice Box. All calls not answered by the
extension are automatically answered by the Voicemail. By default
all extensions have been assigned Voicemail boxes.
If you wish to have all calls go immediately to the Voice Mailbox you
can activate 'Forward All Calls' to the Voicemail. You turn on your
Voice Mailbox by Forwarding calls to the number 710 (if using a
cordless phone)
Select 'Forward' on the idle menu and choose 'Forward all calls'.
Select 'Forward to VM' or enter 710 as the extension number if
using a cordless phone.
If 'Forward on no answer' is activated to 710, calls unanswered after
four rings will be answered by the Voice Mailbox.
If 'Forward when busy' is activated to 710 calls you cannot receive
will be answered by the Voice Mailbox.
To check all Voicemail Passwords
All extension Voicemail Passwords can be examined from the
Programming Extension.

Press the Scroll Down Key ( ) until 'System programming' is

Answering Machine
This feature allows you to set up an Answering Machine to answer
incoming calls. By default the Answering machine will answer all
calls. You can select which lines are to be answered by the
Answering Machine when it is turned on. It can be used on both
CO lines and IP Trunks. You can select how long a call rings before
the Answering Machine answers.
All messages received are stored in a system Answering machine,
which is controlled by extension 20. Extension 20 can also
customize the greeting. You can turn the Answering Machine
service on and off at any time at extension 20 and its operation is
independent of 'Night Service'.
You can use this service if you are not answering calls at lunch or at
night, or simply want to record messages from callers. If desired,
you can have this feature on permanently, so that calls, which are
not answered for a programmable period, are answered by the
Answering Machine.
If a call is received when the Voice Module storage is full, it will
not be possible to store any further messages. To manage the
voice mail and free up storage space see the section "Using
WARNING Voicemail and other Voice Services" on page 42.
