Chapter 3
Features description
The Advanced Paging Productivity Pack (APPP) includes the following features:
• One Button Page (page 11)
• One Button Text (page 11)
• Customer Assistance Page (page 12)
• Schedule Page (page 13)
• Reporting (page 13)

Configure and administer the One Button Text and Schedule Page features with Business Element
Manager or Network Configuration Manager (NCM). Administration through Telset Admin or
CallPilot Manager is not supported for these two features.
Configure and administer the One Button Page and Customer Assistance Page features through
CallPilot Manager.
11
The BCM system reserves a total of 56 feature codes that you can use for One Button Page, One
Button Text, and one-button access to Park and Page.
One Button Page
A user presses a feature key (or a sequence of keys on the telephone dialpad) to initiate a
pre-programmed page. The pre-programmed page is played in the appropriate paging zone.
If the page zone or overhead page system is in use at the time of the page, the BCM system queues
the page and plays it when the resource becomes available.
As an extension of the CallPilot Park and Page feature, One Button Page uses the one-button
access to custom call routing (CCR) trees. You configure Park and Page nodes in CallPilot
Manager and then program one-button access to the required nodes.
One Button Text
A user presses a feature key (or a sequence of keys on the telephone dialpad) to send a
pre-programmed text message to a fixed or wireless telephone. Program this feature in Element
Manager by typing the text message, adding the destination directory number (DN), and assigning
it to a feature key (through a feature code). The BCM system stores up to 50 text messages.
You can enable or disable an alert tone that signals to the user that a message is received and you
can specify the amount of time to wait for the recipient to respond to the message.
Advanced Paging Productivity Pack Configuration
12 Chapter 3 Features description
The alert tone is always enabled on the following IP Phones (changing the value in Element
Manager has no effect): IP Phone 2004 (phase 1 and phase 2), IP Phone 2006, IP Phone 2007,
IP Phone 1140E, IP Phone 2050, and WLAN Handsets 2210/2211/2212.
The sent message is pre-pended with the originating telephone DN followed by a colon. When
the message arrives, the destination telephone sounds an audible tone (if enabled). Then, the
recipient selects an appropriate response. The response is also pre-pended with the telephone
DN followed by a colon:
• If the message is more than 16 characters long, press the MORE soft key (or 3 on the
dialpad) to show the remainder of a message.
• Press the OK soft key (or 1 on the dialpad) to indicate that you will take appropriate
action in response to the request.
• Press the Cancel soft key (or 2 on the dialpad) to indicate that you will not take any
action in response to the request.
You cannot use the numbers on the dialpad to respond to a message on the following
IP Phones (you can only use soft keys): IP Phone 2004 (phase 1 and phase 2),
IP Phone 2006, IP Phone 2007, IP Phone 1140E, IP Phone 2050, and
WLAN Handsets 2210/2211/2212.
After the recipient responds, or the timeout time expires, the originating telephone receives an
audible tone (if enabled) and one of the following messages:
• Msg recv: indicates that the recipient viewed your message and is taking appropriate
action (presses the OK button or 1 on the dialpad).
• Msg cncl: indicates that the recipient viewed your message and is not taking any action
(presses the Cancel button or 2 on the dialpad). If the recipient viewed the message and
does not taking any action, then the sender receives a message nack when the timeout
time expires.
• Msg nack: indicates that the recipient did not view your message within the defined
time or the recipient viewed your message but did not take any action within the defined
time.
On the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211/2212, pressing the Menu key releases the session
within ten seconds and sends Msg nack back to the sender.
If a sent message fails, the user receives the message Fxxx:Snd fail. A message can fail if the
message text and destination DN were not entered in Element Manager.
Customer Assistance Page
A user presses a call button on a customer assistance box (CAB) or uses a symbol kiosk to
request assistance. The system plays the appropriate announcement stating that a customer
requires assistance. An employee responds to the page and presses a button on the CAB or uses
the symbol kiosk to cancel the page.
If the page zone or overhead page system is in use at the time of the page, the BCM system
queues the page and plays it when the resource becomes available.
NN40010-503
Schedule Page
Configure pre-programmed announcements to play automatically in the designated page zones
according to a pre-determined schedule. If the page zone or overhead page system is in use at
the time of the page, the BCM system queues the page and plays it when the resource becomes
available.
Reporting
The supported CallPilot Manager reports are extended to the APPP features such that the BCM
system tracks and generates reports for the APPP activities. Access the reports through the Call
Detail Recording (CDR) functionality in Element Manager (Configuration > Telephony >
Call Detail Recording). For details about CDR functionality, see the Call Detail Recording
System Administration Guide (NN40010-602).
For details about reporting for CallPilot, see the CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation
Guide for your BCM system.
