1 Introduction
By covering voice processing requirements, the Alcatel 4610 IV helps the
customers of small and medium enterprises to get out more of their
business - especially ith regard to the areas "Greeting", and "MobilĆ
ity". These specific solutions are called applications. The follo ing geĆ
neric applications are available:
•Voice mail / Voice Messaging
•Automated Attendant
•Infobox / Audiotex
The Alcatel 4610 IV provides in Alcatel Office PBXs for hotel applications
an integrated voice messaging solution for guests and staff of hotels and
related markets.

ministration of the Alcatel 4610 IV.
This manual describes the procedures and commands to customize your
specific configuration to the needs of your organization and to keep the
'voice image' of your company al ays up to date.
As more technical details might be interesting for the administrator than
for the mailbox user, this manual contains additional information in
relation to voice mail and voice messaging as ell as 'technical details'
about functions (see clause 1.2 "The presentation principle").

ration is done by authorized maintenance staff.
All chapters hich refer to the handling and configuration of the Alcatel
4610 IV are structured according to the tasks to be done either by the
user or the system administrator such as creation or modification of a
mailbox, the Automated Attendant or an Infobox.
By using the table of contents you can quickly locate any feature or conĆ

1.3 The System Administrator
To be system administrator is a very responsible task. A high percentage
of good acceptance of the system by the customer as ell as by your
o n organization lies in your hands. Here are some hints to give you a
good start:
Voice Mail and Voice Messaging:
•When the system as set into operation the first time:
Standard Mailbox
- Make sure that all users have their user guide available.
- Organize a common user training. Users feel more comfortĆ
able in using their mailboxes during their daily business, hen
they understand the principles.
Point out the benefits ho voice messaging can ease commuĆ
nication.
-Demonstrate the functionality and ho to access the mailbox
from intern your company and from outside.
-Explain ho they can form their greeting. Give them examples,
some are listed in the box belo .
Examples:
'Hello! This is the mailbox of .... (name). I am out of my
office until ........ o'clock, inspecting our construction sites.
Please leave me a personal message. I'll return your call
ithin 4 hours. If you need assistance, press 0 no .'
'Hello, you have reached the personal mailbox of .... (name).
Today you can reach me again in the office at ... o'clock. In
urgent cases you can reach me at .... (telephone number). Also
my colleague .... (name) at extension ......... (extension number)
ill be happy to help you. If you prefer to leave me a
message, please do so no '.

10 10
- Explain ho the diversion to the mailbox can be activated/
deactivated. Ask users not to 'hide' behind their mailbox, hen
they are in their office the diversion has to be deactivated and
calls ans ered personally.
- Tell them to consult their mailbox, immediately hen the 'mesĆ
sage aiting' indication becomes s itched on and to ans er
the messages. People ill appreciate their fast response.
If you are out of the office: Use notification respectively check
for voice message t ice a day.
- Remember users to delete unused and archived messages after
a hile.
- Offer general information using the broadcast option.
- Give support in creating distribution lists.
- Let your customers kno about your voice mail system.
- Explain ho a secretary can transfer a call in someone else's
mailbox.
- When a 'common' mailbox is assigned make sure that a reĆ
sponsible person consults this mailbox frequently.
- Disable call diversion to a mailbox for services that must be
reached (operator, medical care, security services,
fire brigade ... ).
Guest Mailbox
- Explain ho to enter the personal pass ord and that it is only
necessary for external consultation of the guest mailbox.
-If the guest mailbox is used in a hotel environment make sure
that the receptionist informs the guest that he has a personal
voice mailbox allocated to his room telephone.
Technical details:
Plug and Phone functionality, available in Alcatel Office release 320A,
creates automatically standard mailbox for each installed subscriber
set. Therefore, the mailbox o ner has just to enter a pass ord and to
record his name to setup his mailbox . See clause 3.5 (page 69) and
page 104.

11 11
- If the Alcatel 4610 IV is integrated in an Alcatel Office PBX reĆ
lease 320A for hotel applications the mailbox pass ord and
the language of the voice guidance is allocated during checkĆ
in procedure. If the language is not persistent the 'Primary LanĆ
guage' is taken as default.
The mailbox number is identical to his room telephoneĆnumĆ
ber. A pass ord is necessary for direct out ard dialling as ell
as for consultation of his mailbox from outside his room.
If the guest is checkedĆout his mailbox is deleted immediately
except messages are still in his mailbox. In this case the mailĆ
box stays available for consultation at least one hour after
checkĆout.
•When you install a mailbox for a ne user
- Make sure that the user manual is available.
- Make a short user training covering the same points as in secĆ
tion 'When the system as set into operation the first time'.
•Monitoring the application
- Check statistics regularly to control the acceptance by the cusĆ
tomers and propose improvements to your management.
- Check statistics regularly to detect problems (e.g. users ho do
not listen to messages or ho do not delete old messages).
Automated Attendant and Infoboxes/Audiotex:
•Designing the application
- Make sure people can al ays reach a person (operator) and
never ill get the impression of being trapped in the system.
- Consider callers ith rotary phones, not being able to send
DTMF-digits. After a short time-out ithin the main menu the
Alcatel 4610 IV should transfer the call to the operator or a
free agent. A voice prompt informs the caller of the transfer in
progress.
- Keep the structure of your Automated Attendant as simple as
possible. A menu should not exceed more than 4 options.

12 12
- Record the menus of your application ith a friendly and elĆ
coming voice. In order to ensure best results of voice quality
never use hands-free during recording of voice prompts.
People ill remind the menu option better, hen it starts ith
the service first and the appropriated key at the end of the opĆ
tion.
Example: '...for the order department, press <2>.'
- Promote also internal information services like: training departĆ
ment, medical service, pension fund, etc.
