Program 13 Overview
This program assigns a station as the Message Center.
Each digital, electronic and standard telephone can receive a maximum of four message waiting
indications per [PDN] and each [PhDN] owned by the station. One of these four is reserved for the
designated Message Center. The Message Center should be the customer’s main answering
position.
Typically, the Message Center is a voice mail device, attendant console, a digital or electronic
telephone with a DSS console (DDSS or HDSS), or an add-on module. If incoming traffic to a
DDSS or HDSS console attendant is heavy, another station can be assigned as the Message Center.
Notes
● The Message Center is allowed to perform “Message Waiting,” even if disallowed on all other
stations.
● Assign the Message Center to the customer’s main answering position: a station or the lowest
port (in VM group) of the customer’s voice mail device (see Program 31 for voice mail group
port assignments), whichever the customer specifies.
● When using RS-232 SMDI or DTMF voice mail interface, all stations must also be assigned to
the message center port in Program 32 and Program 13. This should be the lowest standard
telephone port (QSTU2/KSTU2/RSTU2) connected to the VM device. This is also the same
(lowest) port assigned in the Program 31 VM group and the lowest standard telephone port
assigned in the Program 40 VM Distributed Hunt Group. Do not assign the VM DH Group
port number (900~915) as the message center port.
