Announcement session
Announcements can be recorded, played back, and deleted from an announcement session. A 
station’s COS needs to include console permissions in order for that station to be able to enter 
an announcement session. To enter an announcement session, go off-hook on a station that 
has console permissions and enter the appropriate FAC (administered as Announcement 
access code on the FACs form). Dial tone should be returned at this point. Enter the extension 
of the announcement that needs to be recorded, deleted or played back. Again, dial tone should 
be heard. To record an announcement, press station keypad digit 1, record after the tone, and 
hang up when done. To play back an announcement, press station keypad digit 2. To delete an 
announcement, press station keypad digit 3 (confirmation tone is given if the delete worked). 
Announcements can also be played back by simply calling the announcement extension 
associated with them.
Uploading/Downloading announcements
Integrated announcements on the TN750 Announcement circuit pack can be uploaded to the 
memory card with save announcements. Similarly, integrated announcements can be 
downloaded to the Announcement circuit pack with restore announcements. Both of these 
commands require a free data module of NETCON type to be administered, a data module of 
announcement type (on the Announcement circuit pack) to be administered, and a memory 
card. These commands are useful in maintaining the customer’s recorded announcements. 
Depending on system traffic, announcement uploads/downloads take between 30 and 45 
minutes.
The system automatically tries to download the Announcement circuit pack five minutes after it 
is inserted. This automatic download procedure is aborted if:
An announcement is recorded within 10 minutes of circuit pack insertion.
An announcement download is invoked sooner with the administration terminal restore 
announcements
 command.
There is no announcement and/or NETCON data module administered.
Either the announcement data module is busy or all the administered NETCON data 
modules are busy.
There is no memory card in the system.
The memory card in the system does not have a valid announcement file saved on it.
Note:
Note:
Unlike translations, there is no provision in the system for automatically saving 
announcements to the memory card.
