INTUITY AUDIX can serve as a centralized voice messaging system
within a communications network that used Mode Code signaling.
In the communications system and network MERLIN LEGEND and MERLIN MAGIX systems can communicate with a DEFINITY ECS system via mode codes. In such a network the INTUITY AUDIX system is integrated with the DEFINITY ECS system but supports other nodes of the network that communicate by the mode code. The AUDIX system does not really know about the remote switches, it only knows about the host switch. That switch takes care of how to communicate with all of the remote switches.
The mode code (inband) allows the INTUITY
AUDIX system and a DEFINITY ECS to communicate using the same analog
telephone lines that connect the two systems for call answer and message
retrieval. This integration uses touch-tone signalling, call progress
signals, and switch hook flashes over the ordinary tip and ring analog
wiring to transfer information about the telephone call between the
two systems. This integration does not require a separate signaling
link as needed for DCIU or LAN integrations.
As a centralized voice mail system nodes in the network can use the following features that INTUITY AUDIX supports for the node network:
- fax and voice mail
- message waiting light activation
- remote coverage to voice mail
Note:
It does not support transfer into voice mail.
