1.1 WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO 1.1.1 Why Voice Processing? The VPS handles incoming and outgoing calls. When a call comes in, it answers, forwards to appropriate extensions, takes and stores messages, and notifies subscribers when messages are left.
1.1 WHAT THE VPS CAN AND CANNOT DO 1.1.3 VPS Limitations The VPS does not support: UCD functions UCD (Uniform Call Distribution) is a service that distributes calls evenly among extensions; when all extensions are unavailable, it returns to callers to say that all extensions are busy. Calls can be forwarded by the VPS to UCD group floating extension numbers of the PBX (KX- TD500, KX-TD1232, KX-TD816, KX-TD308, and the KX-TDA/KX-TAW series).
1.2 SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION, MANAGEMENT, AND USE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION, MANAGEMENT, AND USE 1.2.1 System Administration System Administration is accomplished by the installer using terminal emulation software. It concerns setting and changing system parameters and diagnosing system problems. 1.2.2 System Management Two system functions are performed by the customer: System Management and Message Management.

Panasonic KX-T123211D We cannot guarantee adequate integration of the VPS with other PBX systems or with Key Systems. If the customer does not have a recommended Panasonic PBX system, be sure that the system has the features listed below. The PBX should have the following features for successful integration: •...
Upon receiving these digits, the VPS goes on-hook and is ready to handle another call. DPT (APT/DPT) Integration is available when the VPS is connected to a Panasonic KX-TA624 or other Panasonic KX-T series digital PBX (depending on the software version). This Digital Integration provides the VPS with more information than Touchtone Integration.

1.4.4 DPT Integration To the Panasonic KX-T series PBX that uses DPT Integration, the VPS ports look like digital extensions. The PBX thinks that the VPS is a digital phone, and the VPS mimics all actions of a digital set. Another advantage of digital integration is that the 2B+D communication provides 2 VPS ports for each Digital Station port.
1.4 DIGITAL INTEGRATION 1.4.5 Connection Example—DPT Integration For example, you can connect jack 15 of the KX-TD1232 to Port 1 of the VPS with a 4-wire connection (see diagram below). This connection creates 2 Voice Mail extensions and can simultaneously answer 2 calls. This means that a fully-configured 2-port system requires only 1 jack from the PBX.

2.3 MOUNTING THE VPS ON THE WALL MOUNTING THE VPS ON THE WALL The wall where the VPS is to be mounted must be able to support the weight of the VPS. If screws other than the ones supplied are used, use the same-sized diameter screws as the enclosed ones.
2.4 FRAME GROUND CONNECTION FRAME GROUND CONNECTION IMPORTANT!!! Connect the frame of the main unit to the ground. Loosen the screw. Insert the grounding wire. Tighten the screw. Connect the grounding wire to the ground. To ground In most of the continental United States, the ground provided by the "Third wire ground" at the commercial power outlet will be satisfactory.
Standard Initialization (For Digital Integration Connection) Program the ports of the PBX for voice processing (see Section 4 INTEGRATING THE VPS WITH THE PANASONIC KX-T DIGITAL PBX). Program the KX-TA624, the KX-TD1232, the KX-TA1232, the KX-TD816, the KX-TD308, the KX-TD500, the KX-TDA series, or the KX-TAW series for Voice Mail integration.

3.1 GUIDELINES FOR INTEGRATION GUIDELINES FOR INTEGRATION 3.1.1 APT/DPT or Inband Signaling? There are 3 types of integration available on the VPS: Inband Signaling, APT and DPT. The VPS used with any other brand of telephone equipment requires inband equipment. KX-TA624 that can use APT Integration is: •...
3.1 GUIDELINES FOR INTEGRATION Table 3-1 VPS/PBX COMMUNICATION PBX to VPS VPS to PBX Call Progress Tones SLT Signals • ringback • on/off hook • busy • hookswitch flash • reorder • touchtones Touchtones The VPS must also have access to certain PBX features. For example, if the VPS takes a message, one way it can notify the mailbox owner is by dialing the PBX’s Message-Waiting- Lamp-On code.
Page 46
3.1 GUIDELINES FOR INTEGRATION Message Waiting Notification from an SLT The PBX extensions should light a lamp or receive stutter dial tone when the Message- Waiting-Lamp-On code is dialed by the VPS. The VPS functions best when the extension number of the voice mailbox owner follows the Light-On or Light-Off code. On some PBXs, however, the extension number is dialed first, followed by a hookswitch flash and then the On code.
3.2 PBX PARAMETERS AND PORT SETTINGS PBX PARAMETERS AND PORT SETTINGS 3.2.1 General Guidelines and Definitions Optimal performance of the VPS/PBX system relies on proper VPS programming. There are 3 categories of hardware settings: RS-232C, Port Settings, and PBX Interface Parameters. Entering a number sets some of the parameters, while others use sequence codes.
Specifies the method of integration to be used between the VPS and PBX. If PBX type is set to the Panasonic KX-T series, the Inband Signaling parameters are set automatically and should not be altered. APT Integration is only available when a KX-TA624 PBX is connected and the software is upgraded.
Page 49
3.2 PBX PARAMETERS AND PORT SETTINGS • Light On Sequence for Message Waiting Lamp: This is the dialing sequence that the VPS must use to turn on a message waiting lamp at an extension. • Light Off Sequence for Message Waiting Lamp: This is the dialing sequence that the VPS must use to turn off a message waiting lamp at an extension.
Page 50
3.2 PBX PARAMETERS AND PORT SETTINGS Digit Translation Table Parameters These parameters allow PBXs that have a fixed Follow-on ID sequence to be used with the VPS. For example, a Follow-on ID sequence of [ 1001] can be changed to [#61001] by using these parameters.

Glossary Alternate Extension Group Transfers the call coming into the extensions in this group following the sequence specified by "Alternate Extension Transfer Sequence". APT Integration Digital Integration between the KX-TA624 and the VPS. Auto Configuration (Available with APT/DPT Integration only.) The VPS can automatically draw information from the KX-TA624, the KX-TD500, the KX-TD816, the KX-TD1232, the KX-TA1232, the KX-TD308, or the KX-TDA/KX-TAW series.
Called Party ID (Sometimes referred to as Follow-On ID) Allows the PBX to dial extra digits to bring the caller directly to a specified mailbox, rather than to the General Delivery Mailbox. Caller ID Callback Enables a subscriber to call back a message sender with the Caller ID number attached to the message.
Page 441
Delayed Ringing There are 2 kinds of delayed ringing applications: (1) The VPS is used as the no-answer destination for the Intercept Routing feature of your PBX. (2) DIL 1:N (CO line to several extensions) terminates on telephones and VPS ports. To give the telephone users a chance to answer calls, the VPS lines should be programmed for delayed ringing.
Envelope Information Position Specifies the position of Envelope Information—the name of the person who recorded/ transferred a message, or Caller ID Number information. (1) Before: The VPS announces Envelope Information before playing the recorded/transferred message. (2) After: The VPS announces Envelope Information after playing the recorded message. (3) None: The VPS does not announce Envelope Information.
Immediate Reply Allows the message receiver to reply to a message without specifying the extension number or the mailbox number of the sender. Inband Signaling The Follow-On ID (or Called Party ID) that integrates the VPS and the PBX. Uses intercom paths to light message wait light.
Liquid crystal display Live Call Screening (Available with APT/DPT Integration only.) The proprietary telephone works like an answering machine. The subscriber can hear the caller through the speakerphone or the handset while the message is being recorded. LOAD One of the utility commands that is used to load new or saved data to the VPS from a personal computer.
Message Retention Time New Message Retention Time—the length of time the VPS will store a new (unplayed) message before deleting the message. Saved Message Retention Time—the length of time the VPS will store an old (played) message before deleting the message. Message Retrieval Order The order in which the subscriber retrieves messages: Last In First Out (LIFO) or First In First Out (FIFO).
Page 446
Owner’s Name After a subscriber records his name, the VPS announces his name during transfers, Intercom Paging, and confirmation of Dialing by Name. Independent of this recording is registration of name by System Administrator. This allows callers to dial parties by name (Dialing by Name) rather than by number. For example, a caller can dial "S-M-I-T"...
Private Message A message recorded as a private message cannot be forwarded. You can specify privacy when delivering a message to other subscribers (Subscriber’s Guide Section 3.1). Prompt Prerecorded VPS sentences that guide subscribers and non-subscribers through specific VPS functions. The VPS supports 3 prompts: (1) System prompts (prerecorded at the factory in English), (2) User 1 prompts*, and (3) User 2 prompts*.
Page 448
Scanning Messages Allows the subscriber to listen to only the first 4 s of each message. Another method is to press [2] while listening to a message; this instructs the VPS to skip to the next message. Service Mode The System Administrator or the System Manager can change the call handling method programmed in the Time Service setting.
Page 449
System Manager (Mailbox 99, 999, 9999, or 99999) The person who can perform very basic and limited system programming using a telephone. He can create/delete mailboxes, clear subscriber passwords when they are forgotten, set Class of Service parameters, set the System Clock, and generate System Reports.
