Recording a Message
NVM-Series lets you record a message for a person:
■ After you call their extension through the Automated Attendant and
can't get through.
■ After you call the person's direct line while it is forwarded to their
mailbox.
■ After you call the Automated Attendant, without calling the person's
extension (this is called "quick message").
■ After you call your Subscriber Mailbox (or Guest Mailbox, if
allowed in programming).
■ After you make an Intercom call to their extension and can't get through.
(In Portrait 308/824, this works only if the extension you dial has for-
warded their calls to NVM-Series.)
You can also record a message once and have NVM-Series send it to a
list of mailboxes, called a Distribution List. You simply enter one
mailbox number: the Distribution Mailbox number that is associated
with the Distribution List.
If you pause too long while recording or if you exceed the recording
limit, NVM-Series lets you know. You hear:
●
Recording has been paused due to silence. Or, You have exceed-
ed the recording limit.
NVM-Series then lets you know what options you have. (See also
Using the Recording Options on page 43 and Using Auto Help on
page 54.)
Note: A tone (beep) sounds to indicate you can begin recording. In the
first three methods above, you may be able to dial a code to
reroute your call after you leave a message. A person's mailbox
greeting will let you know what you can dial. (See also
Recording a Mailbox Greeting on page 48 and the recording
instructions on the pages that follow.)
