VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEM OVERVIEW

VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEM OVERVIEW
13
1.1 WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO
1.1 WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO
1.1.1 Why Voice Processing?
The VPS handles incoming and outgoing calls. When a call comes in, it answers, f orwards to appropriate e xtensions, takes and stores messag es, and notif ies su bscribers when mes sages are left. Subscribers may send and transfer messages to other subscribers within the system. The VPS is easy to use, helping callers through the system with step-by-step voice prompts.
Unlike handwritten messages or those left with answering services, VPS messages are confidential; they are stored in a mailbox and retrieved only with the subscriber's password. Other advantages of the VPS are clarity and accuracy, which are commonly lacking with written messages. The messages come directly from the caller, in the caller's own voice. To further ensure accuracy, the system allows the sender to correct or change messages before saving them. Messag es can be erased, transfe rred, or saved f or future reference by the r ecipient.
1.1.2 Basic Operations
Greeting Callers:
Callers are greeted by a prerecorded message that includes directions for leaving and editing messages. The VPS can list single-digit numbers for each available extension, mailbox, or department. Callers who know the extension of the person they wish to reach may dial the extension number a t any time. Call ers with r otary phon es are tr ansferr ed to a pr e-progra mmed destination (which is often an operator or the General Delivery Mailbox) to leave a message.
Sending Messages:
Callers can review and edit messages before leaving them in a mailbox. Subscribers can send messages to an indi vid ual or to s ev eral mailbox es at onc e. The message sender can then v erify that the other subscriber has received the message.
Receiving Messages:
Subscribers can choose from several different message notification methods. They can be notified by: message waiting lamp, beeper, or a call from the system to another line. System programming determines whethe r a subscriber will be notif ied each ti me that a message is left. (Subscribers can choose to be notified of messages differently depending on the time of day.) Mailbox parameters determine maximum length and accommodate 5-100 messages. If the system is connected using Digital Integration, subscribers can press a button to record conversations in their own mailboxes or other subscribers' mailboxes while talking on the phone. Digital Integration also allows subscribers to screen messages as th ey are being left or pick up if they choose to take the call.

VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1.1.3 VPS Limitations
The KX-TVS75/100/200 does not support:
UCD functions
UCD (Uniform Call Distribution) is a service that distributes calls evenly among extensions and returns to callers to say that all extensions are busy. Calls can be forward ed by the KX­TVS75/100/200 to the KX-TD1232/816/308 floating number of a UCD group. The call then rings at the next available phone.
1.1 WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO
The KX-TVS75/100/200 supports UCD funct io ns wi th very limited capabilities.
the incoming call is forwarded as an intercom path and not a DIL (direct in line), the following item s will not work:
time table
overflow function
DISA message from a DISA card

1.2 SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION, MANAGEMENT, AND USE
1.2 SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION, MANAGEMENT, AND USE
1.2.1 System Administration
System Administration is accomplished by the installer and is concerned with setting and changing system parameters and diagnosing system problems. System Administration is accomplished using terminal emulation software and VT100, VT100 compatible, or other ASCII termin als.
1.2.2 System Management
Two system functions are performed by the customer — System Management and Message Management. System Management is concer ned with changing system paramet ers through the System Manager's Mailbox.
Message Management is concerned with recording voice prompts through the Message Manager's Mailbox. These messages include company greetings, the company name, department dialing menu messages, customer ser vice menu messages, v oice labels for mail box lists, user prompts, and selection menus.
1.2.3 Subscriber Use
System users are call ed subscr ibers. Subscr ibers are a ssigne d a per sonal ma ilbox that t he y are able to personalize. Subs cribers can record t heir name, record personal gr eetings, s et cov eri ng extensions, record questions for an interview mailbox, set the message reception mode, set incomplete ca ll handling status, set call transfer status, ente r personal group distribution lists, set the message waiting lamp, and set notification by calling.

1.3 SYSTEM BASICS
1.3.1 KX-TVS75 vs. KX-TVS100/200
The primar y difference bet ween the KX-T VS75 and the K X-TVS100/200 is that t he KX­TVS75 is not expandable. The TVS75, 100, an d 200 models are pro grammed id enticall y. The KX-TVS75 is initially co nfi gured wit h 2 ports a nd 6 h of s torage. The KX-TVS100 is i nitially configured with 2 por ts and 18 h of storage. The KX-TVS200 has 12 digital or 6 analog ports and 32 h of storage.

1.3.3 Which Phone Systems are Compatible?
We recommend integration with the following Panasonic phone systems:
Panasonic KX-TD1232
Panasonic KX-TD816
Panasonic KX-T336
Panasonic KX-T123211D, KX-TA Series
Panasonic KX-TD500
Panasonic KX-TD308
We cannot guarantee adequate integration of the KX-TVS75/100/200 with other PBX systems or with Key Systems. If the customer does not have one of the recommended Panasonic PBX systems, be sure that the system has the features listed below.
The PBX should have the following features for successful integration:
Single line (tip/ring) port circuits (Some PBXs need an OPX card to provide this connection.)
Station to station DTMF signaling
Message Waiting Notification from an SLT (single-line telephone)
Screened transfer from an SLT
Message Waiting Notificatio n on prop rietary (multi-lin e) sets (message light accessed by dialing on/off codes)
If the PBX does not have these features, VPS operation will be limited.
Refer to 3.1.4 PBX Requirements for Integration. You will find the following information about each feature listed:
Description
Limitations of the system without the feature
Tests to determine whether the PBX has the feature
VOICE MAIL
The recommended Panaso nic PBX syst ems have Follo w-on ID an d Inband I nte gr atio n. When callers are transferred to an extension that is forwarded to Voice Mail, Follow-on ID sends callers directly to the mailbox. Without Follow-on ID, the caller would have to re-enter the
22
VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEM OVERVIEW
mailbox number when connected to the Voice Mail.
DTMF Integration enables the VPS to recognize the current state of the call and improve its call handling performance. When enabled, the PBX informs the VPS of the status of the call (busy, answered, ringing, etc.) by sending a code with DTMF tones before sending th e normal call progress tones. For example, when a caller hangs up before making a selection, the PBX sends # 9 to the VPS port that answered. This informs the VPS that the caller has hung up. Upon receiving these digits, the VPS goes on-hook and is ready to handle another call.
Digital (DPT) Inte gration is av ailable when t he VPS is connect ed to a Pana sonic KX-TD serie s PBX (depending on the so ftware v ersion). Th is digital i ntegrati on provi des the VPS with more information than DTMF integration. This information enables the system to identify the extension number of the ca ller , kno w where the call is forwarde d from and why, and recognize what the caller wants to do. Some features are available only with DPT integration (Live Call Screening, T w o-W ay Recor ding, T wo-Way Transfer , Direct Ma ilbox Access, Intercom P aging, Auto Configuration).
1.3.4 Installer Equipment and Software Requirements
1.3 SYSTEM BASICS
The installer software. We suggest you use something like HyperT ermina l by HILGRAEVE. The computer is used to program the VPS. Terminal emulation software enables th e ke yboard to be used as a data entry device. The data terminal or terminal emulation software must support ASCII or VT100 type terminals. It is best to use a VT100 type terminal to program the system.
While both the laptop and data termi nal will work, the laptop allows screens to be saved in a file throu ghout t he p roces s. It i s oft en hel pfu l to r etri e v e these f i les l ater if t echnic al sup por t is needed.

1.3.9 Expansion Capabilities for the KX-TVS200
Expansion requires an additional Port card KX-TVS102 or 204. The KX-TVS102 card has 2 ports. Ports are inc reased in increment s of 2. The KX-TVS204 card has 4 DPT por ts. Ports ar e increased in increments of 4. This card can only be used on the KX-TVS200.
1.3.10 Recommendations for System Configuration
General guideline: a ratio of 6/1 (for every 6 lines, 1 port). There are 2 questions to ask when considering how many ports are desirable:
Are the ports answering all incoming calls or just forwarded/transfe rred calls?
If they are answering incoming calls, how busy are the lines?
The guideline above (6/1) usually works well with moderate traffic. This may have to be modified for heavy traffic. These recommendations are outlined in the chart on the next page.

1.4 DIGITAL INTEGRATION
1.4.1 General - All Models
To the Panasonic KX-TD digital PBX, the VPS ports look like digital extensions. The PBX thinks that the VPS is a digital phone, and the VPS mimi cs all acti ons of a digi tal s et. Anot her advantage of digit al integration is that the 2B+D communication pro vides 2 VPS ports for each Digital Station port . Communication between the VPS and the PBX through di gital integ ration requires the proper software level in the PBX and 4-wire connections for each port (TVS75/ 100/200). To communicate between the VPS and the PBX through DPT Int e g ra ti on, t he P BX and VPS must be programmed to work together.
1.4.2 KX-TVS75/100 - Connection Example
For example, you can connect jack 15 of the KX-TD1232 to Port 1 of the VPS with a 4-wire connection (see diagram below). This connection creates 2 Voice Mail extensions and can simultaneously answer 2 cal ls. This means th at a fully-c onf igured 4-port sy stem require s only 2 jacks from the PBX.

Note
To use DPT Integration, Port 1 of the VPS must be connected to the lowest number jack assigned as a VPS extension.
When DPT Integrat ion is a ctivated, a sing le e xt ensio n ja ck pro vid es 2 s ingle -line inter fa ces at the Port card on the VPS. Fo r e x ample, whe n 1 l ine co rd (4 wir e) is c onnect ed to Por t 1 on the VPS, 2 extensions are pro vided. When the second line cord (4 wire) is conne ct ed to Port 3 (if installed), the other 2 extensions are available.

1.4.3 KX-TVS200 - Connection Example
For example, when you mount 2 KX-TVS204 cards, you can use 8 VPS ports in total by connecting 4 jacks of the KX-TD1232 to 4 jacks of the KX-TVS200.
Note
To use DPT Integration, the lowest j ack of the KX-TVS200 must be connected to th e l owest number jack assigned as a Voice Mail Port Assignment in KX-TD series. See the following connection examples.
