Changing call screening options
When available, the system can use a
variety of call screening options.* You
can select these options on the
Transfer/Screening screen of the
Mailbox Manager.
These options are not available by
phone. If your system manager has set
up call screening for your extension, you
can only turn call screening on and off
by phone.
What you hear when you pick up the
phone depends on which of the follow-
ing options you select.
Announce before connecting
caller
The system plays a beep
before transferring the call.
Play screened name before con-
necting
The system asks the
caller’s name before ringing your
extension. The system plays “Call
from <caller’s name spoken by the
caller>” before transferring the call.
Ask me if I want to take the
call
The system says “Press 1 to
take the call, or 2 and I’ll take a mes-
sage,” then waits for a response from
you before transferring the call.
Play screened name in voice
message
The system asks and
plays the caller’s name as above. The
system adds the caller’s name to the
beginning of the caller’s message.
Tell me who the call is for The
system says, “Call for <your name>”
before transferring the call.
Two or more of these options may be
combined. For example, if you select
“Play screened name before connecting”
and “Ask me if I want to take the call,”
the system asks for the caller’s name,
then rings your extension. When you
answer the call, the system plays the
caller’s recorded name, then asks if you
want to take the call.
