DSS/BLF
Generally, the Direct Station Selection/Busy Lamp Field (DSS/BLF) unit is used by
individuals that handle a high volume of incoming calls, such as receptionists. The
DSS/BLF provides one-button access to up to several extension numbers or a programmable feature. For more information about programming and using the DSS,
refer to the current Administrator’s Guide.
The DSS/BLF lamps indicate the status of the extension or feature assigned to the
button. These indications are shown in the table below.
If the lamp is... Then...
Solidly lit The associated extension is busy, or the associated feature is enabled.
Flashing slowly The extension is in Do-Not-Disturb.
Flashing rapidly The extension has a call ringing in.
Fluttering continuously The extension is causing a STATION OFF-HOOK system alarm.
ABOUT VOICE MAIL
Voice mail is an application that is part of the Inter-Tel voice processing system.
Using voice mail, you and other callers can send and receive recorded messages from
any supported endpoint on the system. To use voice mail features, each user (or subscriber) is assigned a mailbox, which usually corresponds to the extension number
assigned to your endpoint. You can, however, have an unassociated mailbox that does
not correspond to an extension. (Unassociated mailboxes are typically used for agents
or other personnel who don’t have a permanent office.)
With your mailbox, you can use personal or system greetings to let callers know if
you are out of town, on a call, etc. If a caller reaches your mailbox, they can leave a
message, hang up, or access an attendant. In addition, if your voice mail administrator
sets up one or more “group lists” of mailboxes, you can send a message to a group of
people by entering one number instead of everyone’s individual mailbox number.

Inter-Tel voice mail systems support the following types of mailboxes:
• Advanced Mailbox: If E-Mail Reader is enabled for your mailbox, you have
access to voice mail, e-mail, and fax messages in your mailbox. You can also customize your personal mailbox options, and access advanced messaging features.
FINDING YOUR WAY
See page 71for information and instructions about using E-Mail Reader features.
For a voice mail flowchart for advanced mailbox users, see page 83.
• Standard Voice Mailbox: This type of mailbox allows you to send and receive
voice mail messages, record personal greetings, and allows you to customize personal mailbox options. A standard voice mailbox does not allow you to access email and fax messages. For a voice mail flowchart for standard mailbox users,

Enterprise Messaging
Enterprise Messaging (EM) is the Inter-Tel messaging system that uses industry-standard protocols for communication and messaging. EM unifies communication and
messaging by providing access to voice mail, fax, and e-mail messages in your mailbox. The EM system provides voice mail users with the following advanced messaging features:
• Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR): ASR can be enabled for the entire sys-
tem or it can be enabled for specific applications (like voice mail) or mailboxes.
When ASR is enabled for your mailbox, you can issue spoken commands to navigate the voice mail menus. ASR also allows subscribers and non-subscribers to
navigate automated attendant menus, call routing applications, and search the
directories. ASR can be enabled for standard voice mailboxes and advanced mailboxes (see page 6). For more information about ASR, see page 8.
• E-Mail Reader: E-Mail Reader allows you to access voice, e-mail, and fax mes-
sages from your mailbox. For e-mail messages, E-mail Reader uses Text-toSpeech (TTS) capabilities included with EM to convert the text in an e-mail message to a .wav file. For fax messages, E-Mail Reader announces the fax envelope. If E-Mail Reader has been enabled for your mailbox, your voice mail, email, and fax messages are unified in one convenient location. For more information and instructions about how to use E-Mail Reader features, see the Using E-
Mail Reader section, starting on page 75.
Consult your voice mail administrator to see if ASR and/or E-Mail Reader is enabled
for your mailbox.
FINDING YOUR WAY
NOTE: EM also includes Unified Messaging inbound and outbound faxing capabilities.
For information and instructions about Unified Messaging features, see Issue 2.3 of the
Unified Messaging User Guide, part number 550.8121.

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)
Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is a feature available for systems using EM.
Because ASR is a very flexible feature, it can be enabled or disabled on several different levels. When ASR is enabled for your mailbox, you can issue spoken commands
FINDING YOUR WAY
to navigate the voice mail menus. ASR also allows subscribers and non-subscribers to
navigate automated attendant menus, call routing applications, and search the directories using voice commands.
When you access voice mail, if you are given the option to say a command or press a
dialpad digit to complete a task, then ASR is enabled for your mailbox. If you are
only prompted to press a dialpad digit, ASR is not enabled for your mailbox. If your
mailbox is not ASR-enabled, you can still navigate the menus and perform tasks by
pressing the appropriate dialpad digits when prompted by the system.
When using ASR, follow these guidelines for best results:
• When completing a mailbox-related task, either say the command each time or
press the dialpad digits each time.
• Use the handset when issuing spoken commands. Your endpoint’s speaker can
pick up background noise and other sounds, which may cause the system to misinterpret a command.
• Voice mail command words are shown on display endpoints. If your endpoint has
a display and you don’t hear the command word when the prompt is announced,
look at the display for the appropriate voice command.
• When you use the dialpad digits to complete a task, you are sometimes prompted
to press to indicate to the system that you have finished entering digits. It is
#
not necessary to say “Pound” or “Hash” when using ASR. The silence that follows your voice command replaces the digit.
#
• While you are recording a message, ASR is temporarily disabled, therefore you
cannot issue spoken commands to access options like pause and erase. If you
attempt to issue a spoken command while you are recording, your recording will
include the command you issued. To access the pause and erase options, you
must press the appropriate dialpad digits.
• You cannot use ASR to set up your e-mail password (see page 75). For security
reasons, you must enter your e-mail password characters by pressing the appropriate dialpad digits. Entering passwords this way prevents others from overhearing your password.
• If the system cannot interpret your voice commands for three consecutive
attempts, ASR is temporarily disabled by the system for the current call. You can
still complete tasks using the dialpad digits; however, you will no longer be
prompted to say a command.
• You can temporarily disable ASR for the current call by selecting option eight
from the main menu.

Inter-Tel® Analog Endpoint User Guide
WHAT YOU SEE AND HEAR
As you can see, your analog endpoints and telephone system come equipped with
many features. To help you understand what everything means, it is recommended
that you read the following information before you use your endpoint:
• Your telephone system may be programmed for one or two dial tones. Systems
with two dial tones have one for intercom calls and one for outside calls.
• Many features “time out” if you wait too long before performing the next step. If
this happens, you must hang up and start over.
• If you hear four fast tones or repeating fast tones, you have pressed an invalid
button combination, tried to select a restricted line, dialed a restricted or invalid
number, dialed too slowly between digits, or waited too long before performing
the next step. Hang up and try again.
• Some endpoint models have red/green lamps in the feature buttons. Green indicates a call is ringing, holding, or active on your endpoint. Red means the call is
on another endpoint. If the buttons only light red, either your endpoint does not
have the green lamps, or the system is not programmed to support the two lamp
colors.
NOTE: Your endpoint may be programmed to always use red lamps for calls ring-
ing directly to your endpoint. If you are uncertain about the configuration, ask your
system administrator.
FINDING YOUR WAY
• Buttons equipped with lamps may be solidly lit or flashing to indicate the status
of a call or feature. To avoid confusion, this guide uses different icons to signify
that a lamp is unlit ( ), lit ( ), or flashing ( ).
• “Off-hook” means that either the handset is lifted or the speakerphone is on
SPKR
(
is lit). “On-hook” indicates that the handset is in the cradle or the speak-
erphone is off. For example, you must first go “off-hook” to make a call, but you
must go “on-hook” to end a call.
• If is lit when using a directory or entering a message, you are in alphanu-
MSG
meric mode, which allows you to enter letters. If is unlit, you are in
numeric mode and can only enter numbers and special characters.
NOTE: This feature only applies to endpoints with a display.
• “Handsfree” mode indicates that a call is connected through the speakerphone
(i.e., you don’t have to lift the handset to speak). While in handsfree mode, you
can make or receive calls.

INTRODUCTION
Now that you know what your endpoint can do, it’s time to start using it. In this section, you’ll learn how to make and receive calls, transfer calls, retrieve voice mail
messages, and much more.
SETTING UP VOICE MAIL
To begin using your mailbox you will need to complete a few basic set-up procedures
to initialize your mailbox, customize your personal greetings, and record your voice
mail directory name.
NOTE: If your telephone system uses Enterprise Messaging (EM), your mailbox may
have the Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) feature enabled. When ASR is enabled
for your mailbox, you have the option of issuing a spoken command or pressing a dialpad button. See page 8 for ASR guidelines.
GETTING STARTED
ALSO: If your mailbox has E-Mail Reader enabled, you have an advanced mailbox.
See page 71 for information and instructions about using E-Mail Reader features.
Initializing Your Mailbox
To access voice mail, the first thing you need to do is initialize your mailbox. This
allows you to change the default password for your mailbox, record your name for the
company directories, and listen to the voice mail introduction.
To initialize your mailbox:
1. Dial the voice mail extension number. (You hear the main menu.)
12
NOTE: If you do not know the voice mail extension number, check with your voice
mail administrator.
Say “Login” or press to identify yourself as a subscriber.
2.
3. Enter your mailbox number using the dialpad digits.
4. Enter your default password using the dialpad digits.
NOTE: Your mailbox number is your default password.
If you want a password, enter a new password using digits 0-9 (up to 12 digits),
and then press when you are done. The messaging system plays back your
password.
If you do not want to use a password, just say “Skip” or press .
#
#
Inter-Tel® Analog Endpoint User Guide
5. Say “Accept” or press to accept the entry or say “Erase” or press to erase
#
and re-enter your password. The system prompts you to record your directory
name.
6. After the tone, record your first and last names.
7. When prompted, do one of the following:
• Say “Accept” or press
• Say “Replay” or press
• Say “Append” or press
• Say “Re-record” or press
#
again to accept the name.
1
to replay the name you just recorded.
2
to add to your name.
3
to erase and re-record your name.
NOTE: The system then plays a prompt that introduces you to the basic voice mail
system features. You can skip this introduction by saying “Skip” or by pressing ,
if desired.
Recording Your Personal Greetings
You can store two different personal greetings in your voice mailbox: a primary and
an alternate. You may change or choose to use either greeting at any time. You can
then select which greeting you want played when a caller reaches your voice mailbox.
Because the purpose of this greeting is to tell callers why they have reached your
voice mailbox, you should include the following information:
• Whether or not you are in the office and where you can be reached
• When you will be returning calls
• For callers who do not wish to leave a message, how to exit voice mail (say
“Operator” or press to return to the operator)
The following are some sample greetings to help you plan your message:
• Primary Greeting: Hello, this is __________. I am either on another line or
away from my desk and cannot take your call at this time. If you need to speak to
someone immediately, please dial zero now. Otherwise, leave a detailed message,
and I will return your call as soon as possible. Thank you.
• Alternate Greeting: Hello, this is __________. I will be away from the office
from day/date until day/date. If you need to speak to someone immediately,
please dial zero now. Otherwise, leave a detailed message, and I will return your
call when I return. Thank you.
You can also select the System Greeting if you do not want to record a primary or
alternate greeting. The system greeting states, “Mailbox number (xxxxx) is not available.” Depending on how your system is programmed, the system greeting may also
include, “After the tone, please record your message. When finished, you may hang
up to deliver the message or press pound for more options.”

MAKING AND RECEIVING CALLS
Making and receiving calls is the basic purpose of any endpoint. With your analog
endpoint you can make/receive intercom and outside calls and make emergency calls.
Intercom Calls
Your extension number allows other people to place intercom calls to you, without
dialing any extra codes. And, because every endpoint in your telephone system is
assigned an extension number, you can call other people in your system quickly and
easily.
NOTE: Ask your System Administrator for a list of extensions.
Placing Intercom Calls
To place an intercom call:
1. With or without the handset lifted, dial an extension number.
2. If your call goes through handsfree to an endpoint’s speaker, speak after you
hear a double tone.
If you hear continuous ringing, wait for the call to be answered.
The telephone system allows you to place a non-handsfree call that will override
handsfree mode on the extension you are calling. If you use the Ring Intercom
Always feature to always send non-handsfree calls, the called party must pick up the
handset to answer the call.
To place a non-handsfree call that will ring at the other endpoint until answered:
#
Press before dialing the extension number.

GETTING STARTED
If there is no answer or if the endpoint is busy when you place an intercom call,
you can do any of the following:
• To leave a station message: Press and then hang up.
• To leave a voice mail message: Press and then wait for their message
center to answer. (See page 28 for more message options.)
• To stay on the line and wait for the endpoint to become available: Do not
hang up. After a system timer expires, you hear music until the endpoint is available. (You cannot do this if the called endpoint is in DND mode.)
• To request a callback (queue on to the endpoint): Press and hang up. When
the endpoint is available, your endpoint rings. (To cancel the queue request
before the callback, press

• To use the Off-Hook Voice Announce feature (if the called endpoint is programmed for it): Do not hang up. After the busy signals stop, you are automati-
cally connected and may speak. (If you hear music or if the endpoint is in DND
mode, your off-hook voice announce call will not go through.) This allows you to
talk to the endpoint user on his or her handsfree speakerphone, even though the
user already has a call in progress on the handset. This feature is not available if
your endpoint has the Ring Intercom Always feature enabled.
Receiving Intercom Calls
Your endpoint can receive both intercom and non-handsfree intercom calls. If the
handsfree feature is enabled on your endpoint, intercom calls are automatically
answered. Non-handsfree intercom calls override the handsfree option.
If your handsfree feature is disabled, or if you receive a non-handsfree intercom call,
you must pick up the handset or press a button to answer the call.
To enable or disable your endpoint’s handsfree answering feature:
