Tip: To page for pick up of an outside call, put the caller on hold by dialing
the line number. Then page the person and announce the line number for retrieval. For example: "John, you
have a call on line 1. John, pick up line 1, please."
Overhead paging
Station number 199 is designated as the overhead paging port. If the ESI system has been connected to an

Voice mail operation from an analog station

The ESI system will provide accurate and timely messages. Others will become more comfortable leaving you
voice messages if you pick-up and respond to your messages promptly.
Personal greetings
Initially, your mailbox has a generic greeting: "You have reached the mailbox for extension xxx, dial zero to
reach the operator or begin recording at the tone." You can record up to three different personal greetings in
your own voice indicating your availability to return calls.
Sample greeting 1:
Hi, this is [name]. I'm away from my desk or on the phone right now; so please either dial zero to reach
our operator, or leave me your name, number and message at the tone and I'll get back to you as soon
as I can.
Sample greeting 2:
Hi, this is [name]. I'm out of the office. You may dial 1 2 2 for my assistant or, if you prefer, you may
leave me a voice message at the tone — I'll check in regularly — or, if it's important, dial 4 to reach me
on my cell phone.
Sample greeting 3:
Hi, this is [name]. I'm away from my desk at the moment. To reach the operator, dial zero. Otherwise,
leave your name and phone number at the beep so I can return your call.
