System Callback (to Remote Location)
You can have NCS Serv call you back at a remote location. This is useful for mobile users who don’t want to accrue expensive toll charges while traveling, especially from international locations where there is no access to toll-free numbers.
In order to access this feature, System Callback must be configured in the Auto Attendant by the system administrator.
To use the System Callback feature:
1. Call the NCS Serv system you want to call you back.
2. Using the Auto Attendant, select the System Callback option.
3. When prompted, enter your extension number and password.
4. Enter the number for NCS Serv to call you back and press # at the end of the number. When you enter the number, it should be exactly as NCS Serv will dial it back; enter a 1 and the area code if it is a long distance number or 011 and the country code if it is an international number. You do not need to enter an outside line access digit (e.g. 9).
5. Hang up. NCS Serv will call you back at the number you specified.
6. When prompted, enter your password. At successful login, you are connected to the Auto Attendant.

Calling a Remote Extension Directly over IP
To call a remote extension directly over IP:
1. Dial the IP trunk access code (e.g. 8).
2. Dial the destination ID (e.g. 1 to select site 1), if applicable.
3. Dial the destination extension number (e.g. 101).
Calling Remote Auto Attendant or Operator
If the remote system is configured to connect incoming calls to an operator or Auto Attendant (and not to a person’s or workgroup extension), you can connect with the operator or Auto Attendant as follows:
NCS Ware 4.0 User Guide 7
NCS Serv Telephone Functions
1. Dial the IP trunk access code (e.g. 8).
2. Dial the destination ID (e.g. 1 to select site 1), if applicable.
Calling a Remote Number (Hop Off Dialing)
If your NCS Ware systems are configured to allow Hop Off dialing—using a remote trunk to place an outgoing call—you can do that as follows:
1. Dial IP trunk access code (e.g. 8).
2. Dial the remote system ID digit (e.g. 3 for site 3).
3. Dial *, which selects the PSTN trunk with the lowest value in the access code.
4. Dial the phone number (e.g. 14085551212).
5. Optionally, press # to indicate the end of the phone number. This will speed up the call.
For example, to call 650 555-4444, using your local IP trunk access code of 8 and the remote system with an ID of 3, you would dial 8 0 * 16505554444#, this will call 14085551212 using a CO trunk on the remote system.
You can also replace the * with a 9 to select the remote access trunk access code 9. The specific trunk access code only works for ‘9.’ You cannot select ‘8’,’ 7,’ or ‘6,’ etc., as the
trunk access code using this dialing method unless the remote extension for this system is set to ‘unknown.
Note: The remote Extension Length must be always be set to None for
the remote system entry, if using Hop Off Dialing.
Hop On Dialing to a Remote Extension
To hop onto a remote extension:
1. The incoming call must come in over T1 or the CO to an extension.
2. The extension is set up to forward over IP to the remote extension.

Voice Over IP Trunk Call Support

Voice Over IP Trunk Call Support
If your system is set up with Voice Over IP, you can use the following trunk-related NCS Serv features during IP trunk call sessions.
Supported Features
The following features are supported while dialing through IP trunks:
Incoming and Outgoing Trunk Calls - you must dial the IP trunk
access code to make outgoing calls via an IP trunk.
Call Transfer To and From IP Trunk (Blind and Supervised) -
you must dial the IP trunk access code and all necessary prefixes to transfer calls via an IP trunk.
N-TeliFind, One Number Access - when entering “outcall”
numbers via N-TeliTouch or NCS Admin, you must add the IP Trunk Access number. For example, if you want NCS Serv to dial the extension 300 at a remote NCS Serv where the location ID (Dialed Digits) is 1 and the IP trunk access code is 8, you must enter 81300 as the outcall number.

NCS Console Client Support - you can use NCS Console to
handle calls to and from IP trunks.
N-TeliTouch Support - all features accessible via N-TeliTouch

Operator Features

This section is provided specifically for the designated Operator. Depending on your organization, this may be a single person or a number of people.
Call Handling and the Auto Attendant
If your system uses the Auto Attendant, it can handle and route incoming calls automatically with prompts and menus; most incoming calls do not reach the Operator.
The call will ring at the Operator’s desk if the caller dials 0 while listening to options given by the Auto Attendant. The sections at the beginning of this chapter offer instructions on basic answering, putting calls on hold, and transferring calls.
Checking the General Mailbox
The System Administrator may set up a General Mailbox where callers can leave messages if they do not know who to speak with or when the Operator is unavailable. This mailbox works like any other voice mailbox and has an extension number and password. Be sure to check this mailbox frequently and forward messages to the appropriate person as soon as possible.
Operator on Hold
To place a call on hold, do one of the following:
Press the FLASH button to play music on hold, or
Press the HOLD button to place the caller on hold without music.
If a call is placed on hold at the Operator’s desk, subsequent calls to the Operator can be routed to the next extension in a queue, sent to a voice mail (the General Mailbox), or placed into a new queue. Be sure to fully understand your organization’s customized call processing procedures.
18 NCS Ware 4.0 User Guide
Operator Features
Operator Off-line
When the Operator Off-line feature is activated, all calls are directed to the Auto Attendant. When callers dial 0 in the Auto Attendant, the system transfers the call to the next extension in the workgroup if one is configured. If there is no operator extension available, the system informs the caller that the Operator is not available and to leave a message in the Operator’s mailbox.
To activate this feature, press # 39. When it’s active, you can deactivate it also by pressing # 39.
Outside Call Blocking
The Operator can block access to all outside lines by pressing #38. Pressing #38 a second time restores the system to its normal outside calling status.

About Outcalls to Cellular or PCS Phone Numbers

When an outcall is made by the system (for One-Number-Access, Message Notification, N-TeliCall, Call Forwarding, etc.), to a cellular or PCS telephone, it may ring the telephone once but not necessarily present the call and make a connection. This will happen if the ringback tone played by the cellular service provider does not confirm to standard ringback tones. To work around this problem, instruct users to append a few commas (,) to the outcall (cellular) number when entering it. One comma provides a one second pause.

Using Message Notification
When you’re away from your desk, you can use the Message Notification function to alert you about incoming messages. When a caller leaves a message in your voice mailbox, the system calls the extension, phone number or pager that you designate—the delivery phone number. NCS Mail then prompts you for your password and places you at the Main Menu.
About the Delivery Number
When setting this delivery phone number, NCS Mail asks you to enter the number (up to a maximum of 64 digits), using the long distance prefix 1 for out of area phone numbers. You must also identify the type of number: extension, phone number, or pager. You don’t need to enter the trunk or route access trunk or route access code as part of the number.
The destination number cannot be a virtual extension or workgroup pilot extension. Also, please see “About Outcalls to Cellular or PCS Phone Numbers” on page 24.
If the system is unable to reach you for Message Notification or Reminder Calls, it will play “Attempts to reach you earlier were unsuccessful” the next time you login to NCS Mail. Also, the system cannot reach you at an outside location if there are no trunk lines available when the system attempts to make the call.

Using Distribution Lists
Distribution List features were added in NCS Ware and
N-TeliView versions 4.0.
Distribution lists provide a way to use a single destination number to send messages to a group of people. You can send or forward a message to a list just as you would to an extension. When you send a message to a list, it is sent to everyone on the list.
You can create up to distribution100 lists, and each list can have up to 64 entries. An entry can be an extension of any kind, including virtual or workgroup pilots, or another distribution list, so in effect there is no practical limit to the number of people to which you can send a single message.
When you create lists at your station, they are your personal distribution lists—every extension can have its own lists. There may also be system distribution lists created by your system administrators.

Dynamic Messaging

Dynamic Messaging
NCS Serv provides special Dynamic Messaging features to provide support for business travelers who need these remotely enabled functions.
The N-TeliCall feature enables you to return a call with the push of one button while you are in NCS Mail. Private Messaging provides a way to leave a private message for callers who are difficult to reach.
N-TeliCall
N-TeliCall feature enables the user to listen to messages in NCS Mail, make calls to the parties who left the messages, and then return to NCS Mail (like a N-TeliCall). This feature can allow a traveler to return calls for all messages with one call into NCS Mail from a cellular telephone, for example.
How it Works, with and without Caller ID
When you make a N-TeliCall callback, the system automatically makes the call to the number captured by Caller ID. The Caller ID information is captured for all internal users and for external callers who have a publicly listed, unblocked number or who have entered their callback number in the delivery options menu after leaving the message (see “The Caller’s Options” on page 34).
If the caller ID was not captured, the user can enter the number manually. If it is an external number, be sure to dial the outside line access digit and any long distance prefix digits such as 1 and area code. Also, please see “About Outcalls to Cellular or PCS Phone Numbers” on page 24.
N-TeliCall is configured for each user; check your access with your NCS Serv system administrator.
Voice Mail
To use N-TeliCall:
1. After or while listening to a new or saved message, press 5 to call the
sender of the message. The system places the call if the Caller ID number is available.
2. If the Caller ID is not available, you can manually enter the number.
3. Press *** to disconnect from the call and return to NCS Mail.
NCS Ware 4.0 User Guide 33
Using NCS Mail Voice Messaging
The Caller’s Options
After leaving a message, the caller can simply hang up or press # for the following options.
* to re-record the message
1 to specify delivery options
2 to attach a call back number
(If the callback number is outside of your outcall accessibility, the system cannot return the call. Please check with your System Admin­istrator for your toll restrictions.)
# to send the message After pressing 2, the caller is asked to leave a call back number beginning
with the area code. To notify your callers of this option, you may want to mention the option to leave a call back number in your personal greeting.
If the caller’s number is a publicly listed number, there is no need to enter their callback number since NCS Serv automatically captures their caller ID information.
Private Messaging
You have the ability to leave a private, detailed message in NCS Mail for a caller in case you are not at your desk or in the office to take the call. This feature is perfect for those who are difficult to reach and want to leave information for callers to pick up. When you leave a private message, the system asks callers to enter the letters of their names (last name followed by first name) to check if they have a private message.
You can have up to five private messages at one time, so you should delete messages that have been heard.
To Leave A Private Message
At the Main Menu, press 5 to access the Private Messaging menu and then proceed as follows:
1. 2 to record a new message
2. At the tone, record message and press #
3. Using the number pad, enter recipient’s last name followed by the first
name. Use 1 for “Q” and “Z”.
4. When you have finished, press #.

NCS Mail Mixed-Media Messaging
To Check Message Status or Delete Messages
To check the status of private messages that have been recorded, at the Main Menu, press 5 to access the Private Messaging menu, then press 1. NCS Serv reports the following:
The time and date the message was recorded
The recipient
Whether the message has been heard
A replay of the message
A prompt for you to press 1 to keep the message or 2 to delete it.
NCS Mail Mixed-Media Messaging
NCS Mail can send and receive communications not only in voice mail but email. NCS Mail combines different forms of messages into a “package” called a Mixed-Media message. You can save time and money by sending Mixed-Media messages over the Internet to anyone throughout the world with an Internet address, toll free.
Since all messages (voice mail, e-mail or Mixed-Media messages) go into the same NCS Mail mailbox, you need only to check one location for all messages with your multimedia computer.
When away from the office, access Mixed-Media messaging from anywhere using an access line from an Internet provider to download all unretrieved Mixed-Media messages from the NCS Mail Post Office.
Voice Mail
Accessing NCS Mail Mixed-Media Messages
In order to access your NCS Mail either in the office or remotely via the Internet, you must configure your e-mail client application (e.g. Netscape Navigator 2.0 and beyond, Eudora, etc.) to recognize your NCS Ware server. Please consult the configuration manual that comes with your e­mail client application.
1. Go to the mail server configuration section and enter your NCS Ware
server’s name or IP address in both SMTP and POP3 server fields (in some cases, this may be the same field).
2. Go to the user configuration section and enter your name, user name,
e-mail address, and the reply-to address (usually the same as your e­mail address). The e-mail address is usually your name appended with
NCS Ware 4.0 User Guide 35
Using NCS Mail Voice Messaging
“@your.domain.name”. Please see your System Administrator for your organization’s domain name.
3. Click or select the Get Mail option. Some e-mail client applications
may provide a field to cache your e-mail password for the current session so that you don’t have to enter your password every time you click Get Mail. Be sure to enter your e-mail password when prompted.
Retrieving Messages
To retrieve messages using your multi-media computer,
1. Configure your e-mail application (see “Accessing NCS Mail” above).
2. Click on the “Get Mail” icon.
3. All new messages, whether read or unread, are stored in the Inbox
folder. Click on the Inbox folder.
4. Individual messages should appear on the right side of the window.
Click on a message to read/listen to it.
5. To listen to an audio attachment in an e-mail, click on the attachment
to hear the message through the computer speaker. If you do not want others around you to hear the message from your computer, you may listen to the audio portion of the message over the handset of your telephone by pressing 8 at the Main Menu of NCS Ware. Refer to page page 21 for more detailed instructions on listening to messages over the telephone.
Voice mail messages also appear as Mixed-Media messages
in the “Inbox” folder. Open it and click on the audio
attachment to listen to the message.
Composing and Sending Messages
To compose a new message,
1. Click or select the “To: Mail” option and enter your recipient’s e-mail
address.
2. Type the text portion of the message (optional).
3. Send an audio attachment with or without a text message by lifting the
handset off-hook and dialing # 0.
4. As instructed by NCS Mail, press 2 to record a new audio attachment.
5. After you have finished, press # and either hang up or press 1 to listen
to, 2 to re-record or 3 to delete the audio attachment.
36 NCS Ware 4.0 User Guide
NCS Mail Mixed-Media Messaging
6. Click the “Send” icon when finished. NCS Mail will attach the voice
annotation to the e-mail when it is sent.
An audio attachment is seen only at the receiving end and does
not appear as an attachment on the e-mail message composed
by the sender. You may carbon copy (CC:) the message to
yourself to verify that the audio attachment has been attached
and sent successfully.

Setting Call Management

The Call Management page provides for setting up incoming call handling. The example shown below is for NCS Ware version 4.0 and includes options not previously available. The differences are explained below.
Figure 3. Call Management Setup page (Version 4.0)
Forwarding All Calls
If you want to forward calls to an external number, begin with the outside trunk or route access digit and any long distance prefix digits such as 1 and area code.
If you want to use N-TeliFind, One Number Access, see page 50. There is a “1-hop” limit to call forwarding. For example, ext. 101 forwards
to ext. 102, and Ext. 102 forwards to ext. 103. A call to ext. 101 will ring ext.102 but will not re-forward to ext. 103 because of the 1-hop limit. Instead, if ext.102 does not answer, the call is sent to ext.101’s voice mail.
42 NCS Ware 4.0 User Guide
Setting Call Management
Forwarding to a Pager Not Recommended
Forwarding calls to a pager is possible but not recommended since callers will only hear what is heard when calling a pager and will not know to enter a return phone number unless instructed.
Do Not Disturb
If you enable Do Not Disturb, all incoming calls are forwarded to voice mail.
Busy Call Handling and No Answer Handling.
You can use these options to specify how you want to handle incoming calls when you’re already on the phone or when you can’t answer the phone, for example, when you’ve enabled the Do Not Disturb status.
NCS Ware version 4.0 added the Busy Call Handling and No Answer Handling option to route calls to the Auto Attendant.
If want to use the Auto Attendant and you don’t know the number of the phrase or menu you want to use, check with your system administrator.
Number of Rings Before Forwarding
Web Functions
This setting is pertains to almost all the options on this page: the number of times the phone should ring before the system decides to forward the call to an extension, voice mail, or the Auto Attendant.
Forwarding Email
The ability to configure Email Forwarding was added in NCS Ware version 4.0. You can forward email by first selecting the Enable Mail Forwarding
check box, then selecting the Forward Email check box and typing in the email address to which to forward the mail.
Also, choose whether you want the original address’s mail to be deleted, treated as new, or treated as read and saved mail after it is forwarded.

Speed Dial Setup

The Speed Dial Setup page, access by clicking Station Speed on the main menu, allows you to set up to 20 station speed dial numbers. All relevant prefix digits such as trunk or route access number, the long distance prefix 1 and area codes must precede an outside phone number. Station speed dial numbers are also set up by using the #25 feature code on your phone set, as described on page 17.

CallView

CallView is a graphical user interface (GUI) that displays the status of all NCS Serv users’ extensions and provides the functionality of a “personal console” without having to install or use TAPI.
You must use a Java-capable Web browser to use CallView. Also, you must have the system administrator enable Multiple Call Waiting for your extension to be able to handle more than one call at a time.
If you’re logging in to N-TeliTouch to use CallView from a workgroup extension, see “Workgroup View” on page 47.

Using N-TeliTouch
N-TeliFind, One Number Access
If you are expecting calls that you want to receive regardless of where you are, you can have the system send the call to you by dialing pre-determined numbers based on a pre-determined schedule.
When N-TeliFind, One Number Access is active and a call comes in to your extension, the system checks to see if the number represents a call you want to receive. If it finds a match, it calls you at the number you specified.
N-TeliFind depends on the ability to identify the incoming call by the Caller ID. If the system can’t identify the call, it can’t make a match.
If the system is unable to connect the call, the caller is sent into the user’s voice mail.
Before You Set Up N-TeliFind, One Number Access
Before you use N-TeliFind, you need to make sure your call handling settings are appropriate. Keep in mind that all system and extension call restrictions apply for N-TeliFind. For example, if Do Not Disturb is enabled, or if the line is busy, the call will be handled according to the extension’s Busy Call Handling configuration.
To use N-TeliFind, it must be enabled in the NCS Ware Administrator, and to use N-TeliFind to forward to outside lines, that must also be enabled as an Extension Configuration restriction in NCS Admin.Check with your system administrator if you have questions about these settings.
Enable N-TeliFind on the Call Management page of N-TeliTouch by selecting the Enable One Number Access box.
Make sure the Do Not Disturb is not enabled.

After you set up the call handling options, click the One Number Access button on the main page to open the One Number Access Setup page.
1. Determine the times you want to be available to N-TeliFind callers. This can be at all times, during business hours, during non-business hours, or during a custom schedule you’ll set.
2. Enable the Caller ID Verification check box and then specify the incoming phone numbers for N-TeliFind, One Number Access. If N-TeliFind finds one of these numbers on an incoming call, it will send the call on to you.
Caution: If no numbers ar e enter ed in the Caller ID Verification fields and N-TeliFind is enabled, it is made available to every caller.
You can enter up to ten phone numbers in the Caller ID Verification fields. For local numbers, use 7 digits (5555555). For long distance numbers, use 10 digits—area code + local number.
Using a Password
You can also enter a password number such as “5555” so that a caller who knows this password can use N-TeliFind to find you, regardless of where they are calling from. Tell the caller the caller to dial 1 dur-
ing your personal greeting and then enter the password.

3. If you chose to use a custom schedule (Enable based on the following schedule), you can set up to four different schedules in the Schedule
section. You can enable or disable each schedule.
4. Select the Forwarding Numbers to be used by the system to find you when N-TeliFind is active. You can set up to four different numbers— extensions or outside numbers. NCS Ware version 4 added drop down list box to select the trunk access code. In older versions, the trunk access code had to be entered as part of the dialed number.
When N-TeliFind is active, the system dials the forwarding number(s) in the order from Forwarding Number 1 through Forwarding Number
4. (This number order does not correspond to the Schedule order— Forward Number 2 is not used first during Schedule Number 2.)
