WARNING:
If silence is detected on the line for 15 seconds, call recording will terminate.
Before you can set up the Record-a-Call feature for an extension, you must:
■ Install PMVS.
■ Go into PMVS programming and program Record-a-Call for that extension.
To install PMVS, refer to the
“PARTNER MAIL VS Installation and Programming
Guide.”
Related Features
■ The person initiating this feature can add additional parties to the
conference call until the conference limit is exceeded. A user active on a
conference call may turn on this feature during the conference.
■ A user can put the Record-a-Call on hold, just as if the user were putting a
conference call on hold. Outside parties will not hear Music-on-Hold
(#602) since PMVS is still connected to the call. If PMVS detects
15 seconds of silence, it will drop off the call.
■ A call that is being recorded cannot be transferred. The transfer button is
ignored.
■ A call that is being recorded cannot receive a Voice Interrupt on Busy
(#312) call.
■ If the user presses the Recall button while recording an intercom call, the
entire conversation will be dropped.
■ Users cannot join a call that is being recorded.
■ You can not use Record-a-Call with Call Screening (F25).
Considerations
■ A Record-a-Call button with LEDs must be programmed on a telephone.
■ A maximum of two conversations can be recorded at one time per system.
When two conversations are being recorded, the red LED associated with
this feature becomes red steady.
