Introduction

This guide describes how to use all of the features that are provided by your VocalData telephone system on your Cisco 7902G telephone.

Accessing Phone Features

Some features require you to dial an activating digit followed by a numeric code. The default value for this activating digit is 5 and it is used throughout this guide. However, your system administrator may choose to use another digit for this function. In that case, substitute your activating digit for the default. All feature operation will be exactly the same.

Call Forward (All Calls)

Call Forward (All Calls) allows you to forward all calls for your phone to the number you enter. Calls will not ring at your phone and will be sent to the number you entered as the forward destination. If your telephone has a display, it will show that your telephone is forwarded. You can forward calls to an IP or non-IP phone.
If your phone does not have an indicator showing that the phone is forwarded, then it will emit one short ring or “ping ring” when a call comes in to the phone. The “ping ring” is provided to remind you that your phone is forwarded to another number.

Call Pickup

This feature lets you use one phone to answer another phone that is ringing. There are two types of Call Pickup: Directed Call Pickup and Group Call Pickup. Both phones must be members of the same Call Pickup Group. Your system administrator should tell you if you are in a pickup group and who the members are.

Directed Call Pickup

Directed Call Pickup lets you answer another phone from your phone when you hear the other phone ringing. Both phones must be members of the same Directed Call Pickup Group. Your system administrator should tell you if you are in a pickup group and who the members are.
1. Pick up the handset and press *12 on the telephone keypad.
2. Dial the ringing extension number to begin speaking with the caller.

Your phone number and the caller ID of the offending caller is recorded in the phone system’s Call Data Record (CDR). Check with your service provider to retrieve the phone number of the traced call from the CDR. Note the time and date that you traced the call, as this will help the system administrator find the call in the CDR file.

Call Waiting

If your phone is configured with Call Waiting, you can answer an incoming call without disconnecting from the current call.
If a call comes in while you are on the phone, you will hear a single beep repeated approximately every ten seconds.
NOTE:

Dial Tone and Ringer Patterns

The T6000 telephone system generates different ringer and dial tones, depending on call conditions.
There are two types of dial tone:
Internal Dial Tone – A continuous, higher-pitched tone
External (Outside) Dial Tone – A continuous, lower-pitched tone
Business Analog Telephone User Guide Telephone Features 17 620-05600190
Page 29
There are four types of ringers – all are answered the same way:
One Ring – Internal (Extension-to-Extension) Calls and when the system
has called your extension to remind you or to notify you about something.
Two Rings – External Calls
Distinctive Rings – A different ring tone is provided for up to two
additional Direct Inward Dial (DID) numbers assigned to your telephone by the system administrator. These numbers do not appear as lines on your telephone, but ring your prime line with the appropriate ring when they are dialed.

Direct Extension Assignment

This feature lets you program another telephone in the same corporate system to be your telephone. For example, you are visiting a branch office for an extended business trip and you want to program a “guest” telephone to ring as your telephone while you are there. This feature requires your old phone and the “new/ guest” phone to be the same type of phone.

Programming a Guest Phone

To program a guest phone to act as your phone, follow these steps:
1. From the guest /new phone, dial 588 (or the code provided by your system administrator). You are prompted to enter the telephone number which you want that phone to be (Presumably, your “original/old” phone number).
2. Enter your complete 10-digit telephone number, followed by the # key. You are prompted to enter a password. The password default is the last four digits of the phone number entered in this step.
3. Enter your password, followed by the # key. The phone is now programmed to be your phone and your old phone is removed from service.
NOTE: When you reassign your telephone number to the new phone, the button template from your “old” phone is assigned to the “new” phone.

Re-establishing the Guest Phone

To reset the guest phone to its original number, follow the steps to program a phone, using the original phone number and password of the guest phone.

Re-establishing Your Old Phone

Once you have programmed another phone with your old phone’s extension, you must reconfigure your old phone before using it. Your old phone displays the message “Pickup handset to configure”. Pickup the handset and perform the following steps:
18 Telephone Features Business Analog Telephone User Guide
620-05600190
Page 30
1. Enter your old 10-digit phone number, followed by the # key. You are prompted to enter a password.
2. Enter the password, followed by the # key. (Your password is typically the last four digits of your phone number.) The phone is now programmed back to its original extension.

Do Not Disturb

Do Not Disturb instantly routes all your incoming calls to another destination (your voice mailbox, the main operator, your secretary, a co-worker, etc.), but still lets you make calls and use other telephone features. With Do Not Disturb enabled, the phone will not ring when a call comes in.

Tips for using Do Not Disturb

You can record a special voice mail greeting for callers to hear if your calls go to voice mail when you activate the Do Not Disturb feature. See Chapter 4, “Voice Mail Features (Default Menu)” for more information.
The Do Not Disturb destination where incoming calls are sent can be changed by your system administrator.

Enabling/Disabling Do Not Disturb

The same star code is used to enable and disable Do Not Disturb since you are switching between the on and off mode for this feature.
1. To enable or disable Do Not Disturb, pick up the handset and press *04 on the telephone keypad.
2. Hang up the handset.
When Do Not Disturb is enabled, you will hear the words “private, private, private” when you pick up the handset on your phone to remind you that the phone is in DnD mode.

Group Speed Dial

This feature provides additional speed dialing capabilities beyond those provided by the Abbreviated Dial feature. With Group Speed Dialing, you have access to a common speed dial list of up to 1,000 entries managed by your system administrator.
Group Speed Dial numbers are extension numbers that have been programmed to dial another number, usually an external number. Your system administrator will provide you with a list of Group Speed Dial numbers and their destinations.

Hunt Groups

The Hunt Group feature allows the T6000 system to distribute calls made to a specific "pilot" number or to any member of a defined group based on the specified hunting order. Your system administrator or manager should tell you if you are a member of a hunt group and who the other members are.

Intercom Calls (Receive Only)

Intercom calls are announced by a brief dial-tone followed by the intercom tones. A tone is played every 60 seconds during active intercom calls (except for MGCP phones).

Meet-Me Conference

If supported by your system, Meet-Me Conferencing provides the ability to schedule conference calls where the moderator (who has control of the conference) and other members (internal or external) call into the conference and are connected at the appropriate time to carry on the conference call.
Moderators can do any of the following:
Schedule a conference
Cancel a conference
Modify a conference
List all conferences
Check with your system administrator to find out if you are authorized to schedule Meet-Me Conferences. The default internal access number is 523, but check with your system administrator if the default does not work for your system. If a DID number was created for outside access, you can dial in from an external telephone to schedule Meet-Me Conferences. Your system administrator can provide you with the external access number.
Anyone can join Meet-Me Conferences from both internal and external telephones by dialing the correct numbers and entering the required ID. The default internal access number is 522, but your system may be different. Check with your system administrator for the internal access number you should use. If you need to join a Meet-Me Conference from outside the system, check with either the conference moderator (the person who set up the conference) or your system administrator to get the external access number for the Meet-Me Conference.

Joining a Meet-Me Conference

Joining a conference call is done by dialing the correct number and entering the Moderator or Guest ID. The system provides helpful prompts when dialing in too early or entering an incorrect ID. Only Moderators may extend a meet-me conference call.

Extending the Conference Duration
Five minutes prior to the end of the call, the system plays a message to the moderator that the conference will end in five minutes. Instructions are provided to the moderator on how to extend the conference call, if desired. The conference call may be extended in increments of 5 minutes by pressing *6 for as long as needed or until the next scheduled conference call.
Roll Call
During a conference call, the moderator may initiate a roll call of the participants that have signed in by pressing *2. All conference call participants will hear:
“There are (n) people in the conference. The following people have joined the conference. (System plays the name of each participant as recorded.) Roll call complete.”
Adding More Ports to an Active Meet-Me Conference
During an active conference call, the moderator may add more ports if needed. To add more ports, do the following:
1. Press *3. The moderator will hear:
“Please enter the number of ports you wish to add followed by the # key.”
24 Telephone Features Business Analog Telephone User Guide
620-05600190
Page 36

If all six ports are available, the moderator will hear:
“Six additional ports have been reserved for this conference.”
If only 5 of 6 ports are available, the moderator will hear:
“Five of six additional ports have been reserved for this conference.”
If no ports are available, the moderator will hear:
“We are sorry, additional ports are not available at this time.”
Dropping a Conference Call

However, the meet-me conference reservation remains in effect and partitipants can be invited to re-join the conference by dialing the meet-me conference number and entering the appropriate guest ID.
Muting a Conference Call
The moderator of the meet-me conference call can mute (disable the ability to speak in the conference) all parties in the meet-me conference call. The moderator also has the ability to un-mute (restore conversation).
The Mute function is toggled from the keypad by pressing *5 to enable or disable the mute function. Only the moderator can operate the mute function.
When Mute is in effect, the moderator can still speak to all members of the conference, but members of the conference cannot heard. Also the moderator may leave and re-join the muted conference, but will not be muted (I.e., the moderator can still talk to conference members).
When a meet-me conference is muted, all parties in the conference hear an announcement that the conference has been muted.
Once Mute is enabled (before or during the conference call), anyone joining the active conference will be muted as soon as they are connected to the conference call. Callers joining the conference when mute is in effect hear an announcement that the conference is muted after the announcement that the conference is active.

Privacy Guard

Privacy Guard is a call screening service that works with Caller ID to identify all incoming calls that have no Caller ID, such as calls that are Anonymous, Unavailable, Out-of-Area, or Private. It forces callers to identify themselves by entering an access code or recording their name in order to complete the call. You will know who is calling and have four options for handling the call.
return to the Priority Call menu.

Access Codes

Privacy Guard provides the ability to create two kinds of access codes that you can give to family members, friends or business associates to allow them to identify themselves if they call and their caller ID is not available. You decide who gets which code.
For phones with a display, access codes are shown on the display as shown:
Privacy Guard (<access code>)
The Access Code is a 3-digit code that, when required, is entered followed by the # key. There is only one Access Code.
The Selective Caller List is a list of up to ten codes. Each cost must be 10-digits. When required, a caller enters the code followed by the # key.
HINT:
When creating the codes for the Selective Caller List, you want codes that are easy for the caller to remember and use. If the code will be used for an individual, you might want to use the phone number most commonly used by that person. If it is for a group of people or a business, use a number that will be easy for them to use and you to recognize, such as a main business number.

Caller Actions

When Privacy Guard is enabled, calls that do not have any Caller ID information are automatically answered and the caller hears an announcement followed by a series of prompts.

Press 1 to enter an access code.
Press 2 to record their name so that the call can be announced, .
If they enter anything other than the menu options, they will be prompted two more times to enter a valid menu option. If they do not select a valid option in the allowed time, the call is dropped.
Entering an Access Code
If a caller presses 1, they are asked to enter an access code, which can be either the Access Code or one of the codes in the Selective Call List, followed by the # key. A prompt tells them to wait while the call is completed.
If an invalid access code is entered, the caller will be prompted two more times to enter a valid access code. If they do not enter a valid access in the allowed time, the call is dropped.
Recording a Name
If a caller presses 2, they are asked to record either their name or their company name and press the # key. After playing the beep, the system will record up to 5 seconds.
When the user presses # or the recording time ends, a prompt tells them to wait while the call is completed.
The system records whatever is spoken during the 5 seconds, which can be either the caller’s name or silence. If the caller does not record a name, no name will be spoken when you answer the call.

Answering Privacy Guard Call

Once a caller has entered an access code or recorded their name, the call will ring on your phone. If you have a display and receive caller ID information, you will see “From Privacy Guard” on the display. If the caller entered an access code, the access code digits will be displayed also.
If the caller entered an access code, your telephone rings normally and you are connected to the caller when you answer the call.

When the phone with Auto Enable When Phone OOS checked returns to service after the outage, Remote Phone is not disabled. Both the phone and Remote Phone will ring for each incoming call. The user must disable remote mode using the Web Portal or by pressing the Remote button on the phone.

Deactivating Remote Phone via Web Portal

To completely deactivate the Remote Phone mode, you must uncheck the Enable Remote User checkbox on the Web Portal or press the Remote button on your IP phone.
If you just hang up the remote phone, it will disconnect the call, but Remote Phone mode will still be enabled. The next call coming in to your IP phone will ring the remote phone.

Feature Interaction: Remote Phone with Find-Me

The Remote Phone mode works in conjunction with the Find-Me function that will transfer the call to each phone you have listed in your Find-Me list. When your IP phone is in Remote Phone mode, and you have Find-Me set up, first the call will try ringing the remote phone. If it is not answered, the Find-Me function takes over and will try the next numbers in your Find-Me list.
If you set up Remote Phone from the Web Portal, and you do not answer so Find­Me takes over, then Remote Phone mode will remain enabled and the next call coming in will also ring the remote phone.
If you set up Remote Phone using the direct inward dial number, then when you do not answer the remote phone, the Remote Phone mode will be disabled. Any subsequent calls will ring your IP phone.

Selective Call Forward

Selective Call Forward allows you to program your phone to send calls from a list of telephone numbers to another telephone number. All calls from phones on the list go to the same destination, which can be changed at any time.
To use this feature, you designate the forward destination and manage a list of telephone numbers (internal or external) that are forwarded to that number when a call with that caller ID appears at your telephone.
Selective Call Forward is managed through a menu of commands activated by pressing digits on the phone keypad. The commands are:
1 - Enable/disable feature
2 - Enter the forward (destination) number
3 - ID (forward destination number)

Chapter 3 Voice Mail Features (Default Menu)
The VoIP voice mail system stores messages in your personal voice mailbox from callers who are unable to speak with you, and provides an indication that voice mail has arrived. The handset indicator on the Cisco IP Phone telephone lights when new or unsaved voice messages are stored in your mailbox.
You can access the voice mail system on your phone by picking up the handset and dialing *09 or pressing the Messages button, if available.
System settings determine the number (and length) of voice mail messages that are stored in your voice mailbox. If supported by your system, callers can press “0” while they are “in” your mailbox to transfer to your main number or operator.
The voice mail system also provides both personal and group distribution lists which let you send a voice mail to a defined group of people as easily as sending a voice mail to a single user. Combining the ability to compose a voice mail message before sending it with a distribution list, you can easily create and send a voice mail message to multiple users or lists.
NOTE:
you have 200 old messages and you receive a new voice mail message, it will not be stored. You must delete some old voice mail messages to receive any more.
The voice mail system can only save a maximum of 200 messages. If

Receiving Pager Notification

The VoIP system provides the ability for you to be alerted on your mobile phone or pager that you have received a voice message. You must set this service up with your system administrator.
Mobile devices support different types of alerts:
Basic numeric pages accept only keypad phone digits (1-0, * and #).
Cell phones support voice streaming.
Some cell phone models can receive text-only e-mails.
E-mail pagers can accept text-only e-mail messages.
You may choose to be alerted:
Each time you receive any voice message.
Only when you receive a message marked as urgent.

What You Receive on Your Pager/Cell Phone

Numeric - You receive the numbers you entered in the Pager Info box; when you
set up the pager option with the system administrator. The number could be a code that means something to you.
Voice - when you answer the page, voice mail plays a welcome announcement followed by a request for the account password. Enter the password and listen to the normal voice mail menu options. If the voice message is marked as "Urgent", the first voice message you receive is the urgent message.
When someone leaves a voice mail message on your phone, the system immediately dials your pager or cellular phone. The system tries to reach you every five minutes, up to three times if you don’t answer. If you take the call, but you don’t enter digits at the prompt, the system acts like you never answered the call and continues trying to reach you as stated above. If you have caller id, your “office” phone number/name is displayed as the caller.
E-Mail -The message you receive, reads as follows:

Corporate (customer) distribution lists are created by an administrator or a user with access to a customer’s main number voice mail box and are available for use by all of a customer’s users. By default, corporate group number 10 in each customer partition is named “Everyone”, includes all mailboxes within a company and is available to all users. The “Everyone” group is updated whenever a mailbox assigned to the customer partition is added or deleted.
The following options are available when you access the distribution groups menu item:

Chapter 4 Voice Mail Features (Option A Menu)
The VoIP voice mail system stores messages in your personal voice mailbox from callers who are unable to speak with you, and provides an indication that voice mail has arrived. The handset indicator on the Cisco IP Phone telephone lights when new or unsaved voice messages are stored in your mailbox.
You can access the voice mail system on your phone by picking up the handset and dialing *09 or pressing the Messages button, if available.
System settings determine the number (and length) of voice mail messages that are stored in your voice mailbox. If supported by your system, callers can press “0” while they are “in” your mailbox to transfer to your main number or operator.
The voice mail system also provides both personal and group distribution lists which let you send a voice mail to a defined group of people as easily as sending a voice mail to a single user. Combining the ability to compose a voice mail message before sending it with a distribution list, you can easily create and send a voice mail message to multiple users or lists.
NOTE:
you have 200 old messages and you receive a new voice mail message, it will not be stored. You must delete some old voice mail messages to receive any more.
The voice mail system can only save a maximum of 200 messages. If

Corporate (customer) distribution lists are created by an administrator or a user with access to a customer’s main number voice mail box and are available for use by all of a customer’s users. By default, corporate group number 10 in each customer partition is named “Everyone”, includes all mailboxes within a company and is available to all users. The “Everyone” group is updated whenever a mailbox assigned to the customer partition is added or deleted.
The following options are available when you access the distribution groups menu item:

Chapter 5 Voice Mail Features (Option B Menu)
The VoIP voice mail system stores messages in your personal voice mailbox from callers who are unable to speak with you, and provides an indication that voice mail has arrived. The handset indicator on the Cisco IP Phone telephone lights when new or unsaved voice messages are stored in your mailbox.
You can access the voice mail system on your phone by picking up the handset and dialing *09 or pressing the Messages button, if available.
System settings determine the number (and length) of voice mail messages that are stored in your voice mailbox. If supported by your system, callers can press “0” while they are “in” your mailbox to transfer to your main number or operator.
The voice mail system also provides both personal and group distribution lists which let you send a voice mail to a defined group of people as easily as sending a voice mail to a single user. Combining the ability to compose a voice mail message before sending it with a distribution list, you can easily create and send a voice mail message to multiple users or lists.
NOTE:
you have 200 old messages and you receive a new voice mail message, it will not be stored. You must delete some old voice mail messages to receive any more.
The voice mail system can only save a maximum of 200 messages. If
