Managing announcements

Adding announcement extensions 

You need to assign an extension for each announcement that you want to record. 
After you define an announcement extension, you use it to record and access the 
announcement.

Let’s use extension 1234 for an announcement about business hours. We’ll use the 
integrated announcement circuit pack located on 01B18. 

To add an announcement extension 1234:

1. Type 

 and press 

RETURN

.

The 

Announcements/Audio Sources

 screen appears.

2. In the Ext field, type 

. 

3. In the Type field, type 

4. In the Name field, type 

5. In the Q field, type 

This sets up an announcement queue so calls wait in a queue to hear an 
announcement if all the ports on the announcement circuit pack are busy. 

If you leave this field n, there is no announcement queue. When all the 
announcement ports are busy the caller hears busy or other feedback 
depending upon how the announcement was accessed.

6. N/A appears in the QLen (queue length) field. You cannot change this field 

for integrated announcements because they have a pre-set queue length.

7. In the Pro (protected) field, type 

.

If you enter 

, users with console permissions can change the 

announcement. If you enter 

, the announcement cannot be changed.

This field appears only if the Type field is integrated.
