Logging on to Strata CS from a remote number
Logging on to Strata CS connects you to the Voicemail / Account menu, from which you can
check your voicemail, change or record new greetings, forward your calls, change your personal
status, and more. For a full description of the telephone commands, see Chapter 2 through
Chapter 5 and Appendix A.
If you have permission, you can also place new outbound calls through Strata CS.
To log onto Strata CS from a remote phone
1. Call your office.
2. When the system prompts you to enter an extension, enter # <your extension> #
<your password> #
.
Note: The initial key that you to use to log on might not be # on your Strata CS system. Ask your
Strata CS system administrator if your system uses a different key.
Logging out from a Strata CS session
When you have logged into Strata CS from a remote phone, and you are ready to end your Strata
CS session, press
*96 at a dial tone before you hang up your phone. Doing this logs you
completely off the system. If you do not log off completely, Strata CS waits a short period of
time before ending the session. If you pick up your phone again before that period is over, Strata
CS still controls the line and assumes that you are calling from within the system. Therefore, any
number you dial will be treated as if it were an extension within Strata CS.
Logging on from a voicemail greeting
When you call a Strata CS extension and get voicemail, you may be able to press 9 during the
voicemail greeting to log on to your account. Check with your system administrator to see if this
feature has been enabled for you.
Receiving Strata CS calls at a remote number
This section does not apply to you if you have an external station. See “Using an external
station” on page 6-10.
To receive your Strata CS calls at a remote number that is not an external station, forward your
calls to that phone. See “Forwarding your calls using the phone” on page 5-9. If you’re at a
remote phone and you want to forward your calls to that phone, log onto your account from it
and press
5 1. Your calls are forwarded to the phone you’re using.
When you receive a call from Strata CS while you are at a remote phone, you can use the Strata
CS telephone commands just as if the remote phone were a Strata CS station. Be sure to
substitute
** for Flash when using the telephone commands at a remote phone.
