Using CallPilot

How CallPilot works

CallPilot works with the telephone system to provide an automated receptionist service. CallPilot answers incoming calls, routes them to extensions and mailboxes in the system, and provides message taking capability.

About display phones

One line display phones
You can use one line display phones for most CallPilot sessions. If you use a one line display phone, the display shows the CallPilot display command line. A one line display phone does not show display button options.
13
On one line display phones, the options are announced by voice prompts. You make selections using the dialpad. You do not need to wait for the voice prompt to end before you can select an option. You can interrupt the voice prompt and make your selection immediately.
Two line display phones
Two line display phones show CallPilot commands and options. A two line display can show up to three display button options at once. In cases where there are more options, wait for the voice prompt to state the other available options. If you know the corresponding dialpad number for the option you want, you can press it any time during the voice prompt.

You can enter ≤, ƒ or and the code to use a feature. For example, press ≤·°⁄ to access your mailbox.
The T7100 works differently from other telephones on your system because it does not have line buttons. Where other telephones require that you select a line button to answer a call, on the T7100 terminal you pick up the handset. Where other telephones require you to select a line button to take a call off hold, you press on the T7100 terminal.
On T7100 terminals, you can answer a second call by pressing . Your active call is put on hold and you connect to the waiting call. You can have no more than two active calls at one time.
Note: If you are using a VoIP phone, please consult your IP set manual for a description of the button icons.

Alternate extensions

You can have up to five Alternate extensions for your mailbox.
If a caller dials the main extension (the primary extension for the mailbox that has Alternate extensions assigned), the call rings only at the main extension. If the call is not answered and the caller leaves a message, a message indicator appears at the main extension and any Alternate extensions. You can access the message from Alternate extensions with the Open Mailbox feature (≤·°⁄), the same way that you access messages from your main extension phone. Only an extension without a mailbox assigned to it can be used as an Alternate extension.
Caller ID (CLID) is displayed on an Alternate extension only if:
the Alternate extension is assigned to a phone with Caller ID (CLID)
the Alternate extension has Call Display enabled
the call at the primary set is forwarded to voicemail
If the call is not answered, the call goes to CallPilot and an audible tone occurs at all phones. For information on enabling Call Display see “Call Forward with Caller ID” on page 76.
NN40170-100NN40170-100
Chapter 2 Using CallPilot 15
You can intercept the caller by using the Interrupt feature, ≤·°‡, from any phone as long as the caller is still leaving a message. For more information on Interrupt see “Interrupting a
caller” on page 57.

Using CallPilot with an analog terminal adapter or an analog station module

One or more analog single-line sets can be connected to telephone system using an Analog Terminal Adapter (ATA) or an Analog Station Module (ASM). This type of set works with Dual-Tone MultiFrequency (DTMF) tones to allow access to CallPilot options through the dialpad only. Rotary dials cannot be used internally with CallPilot.
To access CallPilot features such as Leave Message or Open Mailbox, call the CallPilot extension and follow the voice prompts. The CallPilot Extension is the extension that the system assigns to Voicemail. You can determine the CallPilot extension by entering ≤·°fi on any display telephone.
You can also press:
˚•·°⁄ to open your mailbox or
˚•·°‚
to leave a message and follow the voice prompts.

Using the dialpad

The buttons on your display telephone dialpad act as both numbers and letters. Each button represents a number and letters of the alphabet.

CallPilot voice prompts

Voice prompts announce which dialpad button to press to use CallPilot options. Voice prompts provide the same options as display buttons. Prompts also provide options that do not appear on the display. If you use a two line display phone, you can use either the display button or the dialpad button to access the option.
NN40170-100NN40170-100
Chapter 2 Using CallPilot 17
On a one line display phone the voice prompt plays immediately. If you do not choose an option after five seconds, the voice prompt replays the options. If you still do not choose an option, CallPilot ends the session.
On a two line display phone the voice prompt plays after a few seconds delay. If you do not choose an option, CallPilot ends the session.
Interrupting a voice prompt
You can interrupt a voice prompt by selecting any option on the display or dialpad.
CallPilot Reference Guide
18 Chapter 2 Using CallPilot

Auto Attendant

The Auto Attendant acts as a receptionist for incoming calls. When it is enabled, the Auto Attendant answers your company’s incoming phone lines depending on the time of day. If callers know which option they want, they can interrupt the Auto Attendant by entering their selection on the dialpad of any tone-dial phone.
The Auto Attendant provides callers with the voice prompts associated with:
entering a mailbox number
entering the extension
using the Company Directory
leaving a message
reaching the Operator
selecting an Alternate Language* (there is no voice prompt for this option)
* If CallPilot is installed with bilingual capabilities, callers can press · to hear voice prompts in the other language.
When a caller selects an option, the Auto Attendant responds to the command either by routing the call to an extension or mailbox within your company, or by directing the caller to the Company Directory or the Operator.

Mailbox Park and Page

With Mailbox Park and Page, external callers can press during your personal greeting or after they have recorded a message to have you paged. If internal callers press fl, the call goes directly to the record tone.
When you are paged, the system plays your mailbox spoken name and where the call is located, for example “John Doe, 101.”
If you have Mailbox Park and Page enabled for your mailbox, you must let callers know that they can page you as part of your mailbox greeting, for example, “I’m not at my desk. To have me paged, press 6, otherwise leave a message at the tone.”
Ask your System Administrator whether you have Mailbox Park and Page enabled for your mailbox.
NN40170-100NN40170-100

Types of mailboxes

A mailbox is a storage place for messages. There are three types of mailboxes:
Subscriber mailboxes, which include Guest mailboxes
Information mailboxes
Special mailboxes, which include the General Delivery Mailbox and the System Administrator Mailbox
Other types of mailboxes are available on your system if you have the Network Messaging or the Fax option installed.

Subscriber mailbox

Most users have Subscriber mailboxes. A Subscriber mailbox is assigned by the System Administrator and is maintained by the mailbox owner. A Guest mailbox is a type of Subscriber mailbox.
A Subscriber mailbox can be assigned to each mailbox owner who has an operating display telephone with an extension.
Chapter 2 Using CallPilot 19

Guest mailbox

Guest mailboxes provide temporary employees and guests with access to internal messaging and call routing features. Guest mailboxes do not have an operating extension. They are assigned a number that looks and works like an extension. This lets the Guest mailbox owner access CallPilot the same way a subscriber accesses their mailbox from another extension or phone. If you need a Guest mailbox, request one from the System Administrator.

Information mailbox

Information mailboxes play informative messages to callers. Information mailboxes do not have an operating extension, and callers cannot leave a message in them. A voice prompt provides callers with access to Information mailboxes. Callers reach an Information mailbox through the Auto Attendant, Custom Call Routing (CCR) or the Operator.
Information mailboxes are created by the System Administrator, and either the System Administrator or a mailbox owner can record Information mailbox greetings. For more information on Information mailbox greetings, see “Information mailbox greetings” on page 111.
CallPilot Reference Guide
20 Chapter 2 Using CallPilot

Special mailboxes

Special mailboxes are set up automatically when CallPilot is initialized.
The Special mailboxes include:
General Delivery Mailbox
System Administrator Mailbox
General Delivery Mailbox
The General Delivery Mailbox stores messages:
from callers who use a rotary dial phone
for people in your company who do not have Subscriber mailboxes
The System Administrator, Receptionist or designated Operator can access the messages in the General Delivery Mailbox and send them to the appropriate mailbox.
System Administrator Mailbox
This mailbox is used by your System Administrator as a personal mailbox. You can leave messages for the System Administrator in this mailbox. Broadcast messages must be sent from the System Administrator Mailbox.

Setting up your mailbox

This chapter describes how to set up your mailbox and explains:
Initializing your mailbox
Checking which mailbox interface you use
Opening your mailbox
Changing your mailbox password
Recording your name in the Company Directory
Assigning a Target Attendant
Note: After your mailbox is assigned, you can initialize and manage your
M
mailbox using a telephone and F981 or online using Mailbox Manager. For information on Mailbox Manager, see “Mailbox Manager overview” on page 29.
21

Initializing your mailbox

Initializing your mailbox prepares your mailbox to receive messages. Your mailbox cannot receive and store messages until it is initialized.
Initializing your mailbox involves:
choosing a password from four to eight digits long that does not start with zero
changing the CallPilot default password (0000) to your password
recording your name in the Company Directory

Trivial Passwords

Your system administrator may configure CallPilot to not accept trivial passwords. The feature is enabled by default.
Trivial password checking prevents unauthorized login to mailboxes. The password you create for your mailbox must not be a trivial password. The following are trivial passwords:
the password is the same as the mailbox number
all numbers of the password are the same digits (1111, 3333)
digits of the password are consecutive numbers in increasing or decreasing order (1234, 2345,
43210)
Alphanumeric passwords entered in CallPilot Manager are converted to numeric-only passwords before they are validated. For example, the CallPilot Manager password ADIJM might not look trivial, but it is a trivial password when it is converted to numeric equivalent password 23456.
CallPilot Reference Guide
22 Chapter 3 Setting up your mailbox
If the password is trivial, CallPilot prompts you with a text prompt of

Changing your mailbox password

You can change your mailbox password at any time. A password must be from four to eight digits long and cannot start with zero. It is recommended that you change your password every 30 days.
Keep your mailbox secure by choosing an uncommon password, not a predictable password like 1234 or 1111. You may not be allowed to enter a trivial password. (Refer to “Trivial Passwords”
on page 21 for more information.) Avoid giving your password to your co-workers. If someone
else knows your password, they can access your mailbox and listen to or delete your messages.

Password lock-out
For security reasons, the System Administrator can assign each mailbox a maximum number of incorrect password attempts. If the number is reached, you are locked out. You cannot access your mailbox until the password is reset. Ask your System Administrator to reset the password. The password when reset is 0000.
Password expiry
Mailboxes can be assigned a maximum number of days that a password remains active. If you open your mailbox after your password expires, you hear the message “Your current password has expired. You must change your password. Please enter your new password, then press £.”

Recording your name in the Company Directory

The Company Directory is a list of mailbox users on the CallPilot system. Before you can use your mailbox to receive messages, you must record your spoken name in the Company Directory. It is a good idea to include your mailbox number in your Company Directory recording. For example “Pat Smith, mailbox 5813.” This establishes your “voice” name in a directory that is used by other CallPilot users and outside callers who use the Company Directory.

Assigning a Target Attendant

You can assign a Target Attendant to answer calls transferred from your mailbox. The default Target Attendant for your mailbox is the CallPilot Operator. The Target Attendant can be assigned to any valid extension.
After you assign your Target Attendant, a caller who reaches your mailbox can press to speak with the Target Attendant. If you do not have a Target Attendant assigned, callers who press return to your mailbox.
Remember to tell callers in your greetings that if they need assistance they can press to speak to the Target Attendant. For example, “Please press
