The new Intuity AUDIX system is faster and easier to use, although it works pretty much the same way as the old AUDIX works. If you dial ahead in the new AUDIX using the old AUDIX dialing sequences, you may quickly become lost and have to start over. Read this memo first!! All features that apply to you are listed below. Here's what's different: Press # to approve, not * # * In most places where you used to press * # to approve things or finish things, now just press #. Pressing * # will still work, but why push more buttons than you have to? Sending voice mail is different * When sending voice mail with the old AUDIX (see Figure: Old AUDIX Voice Messaging Delivery Sequence), you could select delivery options in several different phases. This included pressing * M to select the private/priority option before or during addressing. * When sending voice mail with the new AUDIX as in Figure: New AUDIX Voice Messaging Delivery Sequence, AUDIX automatically places you in a single delivery options menu, from which you can select any and all options or send the message immediately.You always select delivery options from this menu after you finish and approve addressing. Leaving Private (and Now Priority!) Messages is Different * The old AUDIX let you make a call answer message private by pressing * M before approving the message. * The new AUDIX lets you make a call answer message private (and now priority) after approving your message. Dialing Through Error Prompts * When you pressed an invalid button in the old AUDIX, you had to listen to the entire error message (shown below) before you could press another button: Entry not understood. Try again after the tone . * In the new AUDIX, you get an immediate beep if you press an invalid button. You can then dial through the error message (shown below) without listening: Invalid entry. For help, press * H. Multiple languages are available * If available on your company's system, the new AUDIX offers more than one language. Check with your system administrator whether additional languages are installed. * If so administered, your mailbox may use two languages - a primary and a secondary - from which a caller may choose when leaving a call answer message. After selecting a language, the caller hears AUDIX prompts in that language. Create dual language greetings * If your mailbox has been administered for a primary and secondary language, the new AUDIX may let you create your own personal greetings for each of the two languages assigned to your mailbox. (If applicable, ask your administrator for a handout on dual language greetings.) Note: This capability, if turned on, replaces the ability to create multiple personal greetings in a single language. Outcalling phone numbers can have more digits and include # * The outcalling feature, if administered for your system, permits you to use more digits, up to 60, in your outcalling number. In addition, you can include the pound sign (#) anywhere in the number if necessary. This can be especially useful for pagers. Note: This capability may also be limited by administration on your telecommunications switch. You can receive, send, and store faxes * If fax messaging is turned on, the new AUDIX lets you receive, send, and store faxes, and attach faxes to voice messages. As with voice messages, you can scan faxes, delete them, skip them, forward them (including forward to a mailing list), respond to them, and make them priority or private. Faxes also change categories from new, unopened, to old. * However, you don't get a fax by listening to it from your mailbox. Instead, you get a fax by telling AUDIX to print it from your mailbox to a fax machine. You don't verbally record a fax to a mailbox. Instead, you send a fax to a mailbox using a fax machine. * To be able to use fax messaging effectively, you need the following items: — The fax print prefix(es), if any, that you enter with a fax extension or phone number when printing faxes. Fax print prefixes are created by your system administrator. You also need to know number of dialed digits needed for printing. The information required is: Fax Print Prefix Digits Required Dial Type: in-house system local area long-distance — The Fax Extended Dialing shortcut, if fax prefixes are not required at your site. The Fax Extended Dialing shortcut is **5 — The Transfer into Mailbox code. This is necessary for the following reason. If someone sends you a fax directly to your extension, and you pick up your phone to answer, you will hear a fax tone. Don't hang up. Instead, do one of the following (marked with an X): ___ Press TRANSFER on your phone, enter the Transfer into Mailbox code, and press TRANSFER again. This action sends the fax call to your mailbox. ___ Press TRANSFER on your phone, enter the Transfer into Mailbox code, enter your mailbox extension when prompted, and press TRANSFER again. This action sends the fax call to your mailbox. The Transfer into Mailbox code is ___________.

Message Manager messages with Fax, Text, and File Attachments are available * Avaya Intuity Message Manager is a software package for your personal computer (PC) that lets you access and manage voice, fax, text messages, and file attachments using written message headers and graphical commands/menus. Here are some of the things you can do on your PC with Intuity Message Manager: — View a list of message headers — Listen to voice messages using your PC — View faxes and text messages — Open or save file attachments — Create and send text messages to other AUDIX or Message Manager users — Store all message types on your PC — Administer features like personal greetings and outcalling — Type annotations to your messages — Move messages around using the click-and-drag method — Randomly access your messages You can send and receive text messages from Message Manager * Your system lets you receive, store, listen to, and print out text messages sent from Message Manager.

You can also forward and respond to text messages as if they were voice messages. * However, to create and send a text message to another subscriber, you must use Message Manager You can now send email messages over the Internet * Your new system has Internet Messaging for the Intuity AUDIX Multimedia Messaging System (IM). This means you can now use the Intuity AUDIX to send and receive electronic mail to and from the Internet. Internet Messaging works with Intuity Message Manager or with many commercial email programs. You can also send a voice attachment that the message recipient can hear after installing the Avaya Voice Player. * The player may be freely distributed to any person with whom you correspond over the Internet. It is available for these operating systems: Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT, Microsoft Windows 3.1, Apple PowerMac, and Sun Solaris. Addressing email in Message Manager to an Internet address: If you know the Internet address of the recipient, you can use this addressing scheme: handle@host.domain@messaging trusted server name where "handle" is the person's email name, "host.domain" is the Internet address for their email server, and "@messaging trusted server name" tells the Avaya Intuity server that this message is destined for an Internet address. For example, you could send an email message to John Doe at the Friendly Company at this address: johndoe@friendly.com@messaging trusted server name If an internet email user sent you a message, their address is in the "From:" field. Addressing email in an Internet email program to a Message Manager address You can use any POP3-compliant email program to access your messages on the Intuity AUDIX. Most commercially-available programs comply with this protocol. Addressing is the same as through other email servers. If you know the Internet address of the recipient, you can use this addressing scheme: handle@host.domain where "handle" is the person's email name and "host.domain" is the Internet address for their email server. For example, you could send an email message to John Doe at the Friendly Company at this address: johndoe@friendly.com If an internet email user sent you a message, their address is in the "From:" field. Send a Copy of the Avaya Voice Player Anyone can get a copy of the Avaya Voice Player, then forward it to people with whom they trade voice messages. The player can be found on the Avaya software web site at: http://www.avaya.com/solutions/messaging/avp On the website, click the Avaya Voice Player button for your platform to download the correct program. Depending on how your system is administered, you can also get copies from the following places (X if used): — By sending an email message to an automatic email response address at software@______________________________ with this system name in the subject line: ___win16 ___win32 ___mac ___sun — Intuity AUDIX subscribers can ask their system administrator to send them a copy. — From your company's web site at ___________________ — If you have Intuity Message Manager 4.3 or higher, check the "Players" directory. Address a message to a large list (up to 1500 subscribers) * You can address and send a message to a large mailing list that may contain up to 1500 subscribers. You previously could send messages to a single list of up to 250 subscribers. * Your system administrator creates each large list and assigns an extension to it. You then address a message to the list by simply entering the list's extension as you would any subscriber's extension. Address a message before you record it * If administered for this feature, the new AUDIX lets you address messages before recording them. After you turn on this option, the voice mail record and send sequence will appear as in Figure: Message Addressing Sequence. * You have to turn on the ''address before recording'' option by selecting Activity Menu option 5, then selecting 6, ''Administer Addressing Options.'' Turn off call answer when you're gone * You can turn off the call answer capability of your mailbox for times when you're on vacation or away from your office for awhile. This prevents your mailbox from filling up and encourages people to seek other personnel for assistance. It also helps save resources on your AUDIX system. * To turn off call answer, select Activity Menu option 5, then select 7, ''Administer Call Answer Options.'' Note: With call answer turned off, you can still receive voice mail.
