  • Page 14: What The Vps Can And Cannot Do

    VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEM OVERVIEW 1.1 WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO 1.1.1 Why Voice Processing? The VPS handles incoming and outgoing calls. When a call comes in, it answers, forwards to appropriate extensions, takes and stores messages, and notifies subscribers when messages are left.
  • Page 15: Vps Limitations

    VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEM OVERVIEW 1.1.3 VPS Limitations The VPS does not support: UCD functions UCD (Uniform Call Distribution) is a service that distributes calls evenly among extensions; when all extensions are unavailable, it returns to callers to say that all extensions are busy. Calls can be forwarded by the VPS to the KX-TD1232/816/308/500 floating number of a UCD group.
