2 Installation Manual
Thank you for purchasing this Panasonic Model KX-TA1232, Advanced Hybrid
System.
Panasonic Voice Processing Systems
The KX-TA1232 is similar to the bestselling KX-TA624, but does not have APT
Integration. Instead, it has the superior DPT Integration capability. It has four jacks
(8 ports) for voice mail integration. Thesemay be connected to any Panasonic Voice
Processing System (VPS) that supports DPT Integration. This provides you with
Two Way Recording, Live Call Screening, Caller ID functions, and much more.
May we suggest that you consider the KX-TVS110?
It is the latest VPS model from Panasonic's broad line of VPS products. Its release
is due inthe summer of 2001. It has 4ports and 20 hours of recording time. It could
be perfect for your demanding office needs. Custom Service can effectively
distribute incoming calls byuserrecordedmenus (in any language you like).Callers
can be automatically directed to extensions, mailboxes, the fax machine, etc., by
single-digit entries. You can record up to 100 menus easily.
If your voice mail load is very small,for example for recording after-hour calls, you
can consider the low-cost KX-TVS50. It has 2 ports and 2 hours of recording time.
It also has the Custom Service feature, for routing incoming calls by caller
selection.
For more details on all TVS series voice mail systems, please see the Programming
Guide, System Program [117] Voice Mail Number Assignment. All systems are
listed there.

2) Afford the customer the opportunity to correct the situation which gave rise to the
temporary discontinuance.
