Positive Disconnect - Panasonic DBS-576 Technical Manual

   !
Allows a user to program any one-touch key on the phone to automatically dial Voice Mail. The
dial number for Voice Mail along with the user's password can be stored under the key. If this
feature is programmed on an FF-key or DSS key, the key will flash red when a new message is
left in your voice mailbox. This key can also be used by the Attendant to transfer a caller into a
specific person's mailbox, by hitting the Voice Mail key and the DSS key for that person.
 " !
• Allows a station user to have a larger message waiting lamp for Voice Mail and a
quicker way to retrieve messages from Voice Mail.
   !
The DBS 576 can be programmed to send an answer supervision signal to a 3rd-party Voice
Mail or Auto Attendant system, when the extension user answers a call. (Voice Mail doesn't wait
for the ringing to stop before releasing the call.)
 " !
• Voice Mail releases calls to the extension more quickly.
• The one-touch access and flashing key serves as an excellent tool for prompt voice
mail interaction.
   !
DID numbers can be assigned to ring directly to a voice mailbox that is not associated with a
physical station. When the Voice Mail answers the DID call, automatic digits can be sent to route
the call to a specific personal mailbox.
 " !
• Station equipment doesn't have to be used for routing incoming DID calls to specific
mailboxes.
   !
When your extension is forwarded to Voice Mail, this feature sends a string of digits when Voice
Mail answers. This enables the outside caller to skip the Voice Mail main greeting, forwarding
directly to a personal mailbox. Any combination of digits 0-9, pause,
be programmed to make this feature work, depending on what the Voice Mail manufacturer
requires.
 " !
• Outside callers are not inconvenienced by having to dial extra digits to reach a
personal greeting.
   !
Analog station ports can generate a positive disconnect (open loop) to devices that are attached
to them upon hang-up.
 " !
• Sending this signal allows quick disconnection from third-party Voice Mail or similar
devices.
