We are confident it will provide for you with many years of good service. For basic VPS functions, the VPS is easy to install. This manual will help you get started. You do not need a PC. You can even activate Live Call Screening and Two-Way Recording into Voice Mail without PC programming (please see the Installation Manual and User Manual of the KX-TD Digital Super Hybrid System for details). However, later, to get the most out of your investment, we strongly recommend that you use a PC for two reasons: (1) To read the Installation Manual, which is on the enclosed CD-ROM, and (2) to program the VPS for advanced features (such as Custom Service, Caller ID services, System Group Distribution Lists, Fax Management, Holiday Services, Department Dialling, and much more). Here are the important terms used in this manual: AA - Automated Attendant (see Port Services). Auto Forwarding - allows unretrieved messages to be copied or forwarded to another mailbox. beeper - wireless beeper (pager). You can be notified by beeper (pager) when you have messages. You can also be notified by telephone. Please see the Subscriber’s Guide for details. Caller ID - number identification of the party that originated the call. For this feature to operate, your PBX must be equipped with the Caller ID option. (If your PBX is an ISDN version, then no option is required, because Caller ID is available through CLIP.) COS - Class of Service. Each subscriber is assigned a COS (COS 1 by default). COS defines the restrictions on the subscriber, such as New Message Retention Time, or the features she can use, such as Message Notification. DIL - Direct In Line; this is a PBX term. One outside (CO) line rings one extension directly. DIP switch - consists of 4 binary switches (see FIG. 1 on page 12). Sixteen combinations are possible. Each combination is called a “position” and is numbered; several positions are listed in FIG.2 on page 13. This DIP switch helps you configure the VPS. DPT - Digital Proprietary Telephone. To program the PBX, we recommend you connect a display DPT to JACK 01 of the PBX. GDM - General Delivery Mailbox — this is mostly intended for callers who use a rotary telephone and so cannot enter touchtone signals. Introduction Terms Used in This Manual Getting Started

up the VPS. Intercom Paging - audio paging through the PBX's paging system. LCS - Live Call Screening. This is an exclusive Panasonic feature. Using a DPT, you can monitor incoming calls like a TAM (telephone answering machine) and intercept them if required. MWL - Message Waiting Lamp. The MWL on your DPT will light up when you have a message. PBX - a KX-TD Digital Super Hybrid System. PBX stands for Private Branch Exchange. PC - Personal Computer. Not needed for the procedures described in this manual. Port Services - for greeting and guiding outside callers. There are 4 Port Services: (1) Custom Service — interactive menus for callers (2) AA Service — described on page 4 (3) VM Service — described on page 4 (4) Interview Service — Q&A for callers This manual only explains how you can set up the VPS for AA Service and VM Service. power LED - light emitting diode. The VPS has a red LED on the front panel and it is an important system status indicator. When it is on and not blinking, the VPS is in the normal operating mode. prompt - a greeting or remark which is played by the VPS to help verbally guide callers and subscribers. Prompts are recorded at the factory or can be recorded by the Message Manager. User 1 Prompts are recorded in Spanish or French or none depending on the country model of your VPS. S/G - Subscriber’s Guide. Each subscriber should get a copy of this. A copy of the S/G is on the CD-ROM. The S/G explains all the important functions that the subscriber can program and use. SLT - single line telephone. This is any regular tone type telephone. The main disadvantage of an SLT is that normally it does not have a MWL. So we recommend a DPT with MWL for each subscriber. subscriber - the VPS can hold messages for 30 subscribers. A subscriber is an owner of a mailbox. Two-Way Recording into Voice Mail - You can record conversations into your mailbox or a specified mailbox for future reference. VM - Voice Mail (see Port Services) VPS - Voice Processing System Terms Used in This Manual Getting Started

number (usually 3 digits in the case of the KX-TD Digital Super Hybrid System): Please enter your party’s extension. To enter by name, press the hash sign and 1. Note • This message is played 3 times. If the caller does nothing, the call goes to the operator, and then finally the General Delivery Mailbox: Welcome to General Delivery Mailbox. Please leave a message at the tone. 2. The VPS will ring the extension. If there is no answer, the caller will hear this: Sorry, no one is available to answer the call. To leave a message, press 1. To call the operator, press 0. To enter another extension, press . The VPS also takes appropriate action when the called extension is busy. The outside caller is greeted (see Note below) and then asked to enter a mailbox number (by default, 3 digits): Please enter your party’s mailbox number. To enter by name, press the hash sign and 1. Note • This message is played 3 times. If the caller does nothing, the call goes to the operator, and then finally the General Delivery Mailbox: Welcome to the General Delivery Mailbox. Please leave a message at the tone. If many outside parties call from a rotary telephone, the GDM should be checked daily by the Message Manager and he should forward GDM messages to the right subscribers (see Procedure - Part 3). Note : The greetings are: [248] Good afternoon or [249] Good evening or [250] Good morning, and [819] Welcome to the Voice Processing System. You can change these greetings — please see Procedure - Part 3. What is AA (Automated Attendant) Service? Getting Started What is VM (Voice Mail) Service?

PBX. To set the DIP switch, you will need something long, sharp, and hard (such as a straightened out paper clip or a pen). You should also have the Installation Manual and Operating Instructions (User Manual) for the PBX. It is expected that you know how to program the PBX from the DPT. The manual you are holding covers basic installation with the Panasonic KX-TD series PBX. Please decide if you want AA Service or VM Service. Your selection will be needed in Procedure - Part 1. In Procedure - Part 3 you will learn how to change greetings (voice prompts). In this part, you will (I) prepare the PBX, (II) set up a mailbox for each subscriber of the VPS, and (III) select System/User 1/User 2 Prompts. To begin with, both the VPS and PBX must not be powered. Their power LEDs should be off. (I) Prepare the PBX 1. Connect PORT 1 of the VPS to JACK 02 of the PBX with 4-conductor cable. Please see FIG.1 (on page 12). 2. Connect an DPT to JACK 01 and turn on the PBX. Confirm that the time and date are correct — this is important because this information will be transmitted to the VPS at a later stage. If the time and date are not correct, make corrections with System Program [000] “Date and Time Setting”. 3. If you want to change the PBX extension numbering plan, change it now with System Program [003] “Extension Number Assignment”. For example, JACK 01=Extn.201 JACK 02=Extn.202 JACK 03=Extn.203 JACK 04=Extn.204 JACK 05=Extn.205 JACK 06=Extn.206 ...etc... However, you can change these assignments to fit your needs. For example, JACK 01 can be set to Extn.401 if you like. 4. From the DPT of JACK 01, use System Program “Voice Mail Number Assignment”, [126] (or [117]) depending on the country model of your PBX, to enable DPT integration on JACK 02 of the PBX. Follow the instructions in the PBX Installation Manual. If you cannot successfully complete this programming step, you need to call for help. 5. Exit System Programming. What You Need Getting Started Procedure – Part 1 (basic installation)

1. If you want to set all VPS ports for AA Service (described on page 4), put the DIP switch in position 2 (see FIG.2). If you want to set all VPS ports for VM Service (described on page 4), put the DIP switch in position 3 (see FIG.2). 2. Power on the VPS and wait about 3.5 min. 3. This completes the creation of a mailbox for each extension. 4. Restore the DIP switch to position 0 (see FIG.2). 5. Check the system: Pick up the extension of JACK 01 and call the VPS (the extension of JACK 02). You should hear: You have zero new messages. To receive the message, press 1. To deliver a message, press 2. To check the mailbox distribution, press 3. For automated attendant status, press 4. For mailbox management, press 5. For other features, press 6. To end this call, press . If you do not hear this, something is wrong. Try again from (II) Step 1. (III) Select System/User 1/User 2 Prompts 1. Please see Procedure – Part 3 (Step 3) for a brief explanation of VPS voice prompts and decide what prompts you want to use. Then follow the steps below. 2. Power off the VPS. 3. If you want to use System Prompts, set the DIP switch to position 12 (see FIG.2). If you want to use User 1 Prompts, set the DIP switch to position 13 (see FIG.2). If you want to use User 2 Prompts, set the DIP switch to position 14 (see FIG.2). 4. Power on the VPS and wait about 3.5 min. 5. Restore the DIP switch to position 0 (see FIG.2). 6. The prompts you want will be activated. Confirm this by calling the system. 7. This completes “basic installation”. Proceed to Procedure – Part 2. Tip: If you want the maximum possible amount of memory for recording for callers and subscribers, then erase User 1 and User 2 Prompts and select System Prompts. Otherwise, it is not recommended that you use System Prompts. With System Prompts, you cannot selectively record prompts as you like. When you use User 1 or User 2 Prompts, you have much more flexibility, because you can modify any prompt you like. The Message Manager can easily modify any prompt. This procedure is described in Procedure - Part 3. Procedure - Part 1 (basic installation) Getting Started

1. First, learn how to enter the System Manager’s mailbox. It is simple. Call the VPS from any extension (SLT or DPT) and dial [#][6][ ][999]. You will hear this guidance (Main Menu of System Manager’s Service): You have (number) new message(s). To receive the message, press 1. To deliver a message, press 2. To customise your mailbox, press 3. To check the mailbox distribution, press 4. For a system report, press 5. For other features, press 6. To end this call, press . 2. Assign a COS number (1 through 62) for each subscriber. By default, each subscriber is COS 1. Permission to use features is defined for the subscriber by the COS number. Many subscribers can be placed in the same COS, but some subscribers (for example) who need extra recording space would need to be in a separate COS. To change a subscriber’s COS assignments and other mailbox settings, go to the Main Menu of System Manager’s Service: (a) press 6 for other features; (b) press 1 for mailbox setup; (c) press 1 for assign or edit; (d) dial the mailbox number; (e) press 2 to accept the entry; (f) as each parameter is played, you can change it or accept it; these are the guidances that you will hear: * Owner’s name is not recorded. * Owner’s extension is (extension number). * No letters have been specified †. * Class of service number is (number). * Interview mailbox number is not assigned. * All calls transfer to mailbox disabled. † : This is the “Dial by Name” feature. If you specify the first 3 or 4 letters of the subscriber’s last name, callers can reach his mailbox by spelling the name on the telephone keypad. COS assignment is the 4th parameter from the top. Procedure – Part 2 (things the System Manager should do) Getting Started

To change parameters, go to the Main Menu of System Manager’s Service: (a) press 6 for other features; (b) press 2 to set Class of Service; (c) dial the COS number (1 through 62); (d) as each parameter is played, you can change it or accept it; these are the guidances that you will hear: Parameter Default (COS 1) Range Personal greeting length is (time) 16 s 8-60 s (steps of 4 s) New message retention time is (day) 14 days 1-30 days Saved message retention time is (day) 5 days 1-30 days/unlimited Message length is (time) 3 min 1-6 min/Unlimited Maximum number of messages per mailbox is (number) 10 5-100 Total message time available per mailbox is (time) 10 min 5-100 min/ Unlimited Message retrieval order is LIFO LIFO/FIFO Message scanning with information is disabled enabled/disabled Play system prompt after personal greeting disabled enabled/disabled Use call waiting on busy signal disabled enabled/disabled Message cancel for live call screening enabled enabled/disabled Direct mailbox access enabled enabled/disabled Intercom paging group number is (number) 1 1-9 Prompt mode is user 1 system/user1/user2 Remote call forward to CO disabled enabled/disabled Delete message confirmation disabled enabled/disabled Maximum number of caller IDs for caller name announce is (number) 30 0-30 Personal greeting for caller ID enabled enabled/disabled Caller ID screen enabled enabled/disabled Message notification disabled enabled/disabled External message delivery disabled enabled/disabled Auto forwarding disabled enabled/disabled CAUTION • The default value for New Message Retention Time is 14 days. If some subscribers cannot check their mailboxes within this time, their COS setting should be changed (maximum 30 days). Procedure – Part 2 (things the System Manager should do) Getting Started

to organise your settings. For example, you could create columns for parameters and rows for COS numbers. 5. If a subscriber forgets her password, the System Manager can delete it so that the subscriber can select a new one. To delete a password, go to the Main Menu of System Manager’s Service: (1) press 6 for other features; (2) press 1 for mailbox setup; (3) press 3 for resetting password; (4) dial the mailbox number; (5) press 1 to delete the password. 6. This completes Part 2 of the setup procedure. Getting Started Procedure – Part 2 (things the System Manager should do)

and transfer messages to the right subscribers. Here is the procedure: 1. Learn how to enter the Message Manager’s mailbox. It is simple. Call the VPS from any extension (SLT or DPT) and dial [#][6][ ][998]. You might hear something like this (Main Menu of Message Manager’s Service): You have one new message. To transfer general delivery mailbox messages, press 1. To set up message waiting notification, press 2. To customise your mailbox, press 3. To set the clock, press 4. To modify message, press 5. To set station call forwarding, press 6. To end this call, press . 2. Press 1 and follow the prompts. 3. Another task for the Message Manager is to record voice prompts. There are over 900 voice prompts (all listed in the I/M), and they come in three types: (1) System Prompts - in English (cannot be modified). (2) User 1 Prompts - Prompts are recorded at the factory or can be recorded by the Message Manager. (3) User 2 Prompts - Prompts are recorded at the factory or can be recorded by the Message Manager. However, even if you use User 1 or User 2 prompts, in many cases it is not necessary to record all the voice prompts (recording over 900 voice prompts is a big undertaking). When an external party calls AA service or VM service, she only hears some of the following prompts. Therefore, it is necessary only to record (or modify) these prompts. Please change prompts as needed for your application. For example, prompt no. [819] could be “Thank you for calling ABCD Travel ” instead of “Welcome to the Voice Processing System.” (The maximum length of a prompt is fixed at 6 minutes.) [ ]=prompt number Prompts common to VM and AA services [248] Good afternoon. (announced from noon to 6PM) [249] Good evening. (announced from 6PM to 3AM) [250] Good morning. (announced from 3AM to noon) [819] Welcome to the Voice Processing System. [674] To enter by name, press the hash sign and 1. [132] Enter the first 3 or 4 letters of the person’s last name.
