Voice Mailboxes on the PBX > Voice Mailbox

Voice Mailbox
A voice mailbox can be operated like a local answering machine. Depending on its setting, it records incoming calls and left messages as audio files (*.wav).
A fax box receives incoming telefaxes and stores them as *.pdf files. The maximum length of a telefax is 50 pages.
Voice messages, announcements and telefaxes are not stored in the telephone but in the PBX
The size of a voice mail/fax box and the permission to use it are set by the PBX. A voice mail/fax box can be assigned to an individual subscriber or to a group. In addition, a subscriber can be granted permission for several voice mail/fax boxes.
Important: The voice mailbox function is only available for COMpact 4000, COMpact 5010 VoIP, COMpact 5020 VoIP, COMpact 5000/R, COMpact 5200/R, COMpact 5500R and COMmander 6000/R/RX PBXs.
In some PBXs you will need to install another module (available as an optional extra) to run a voice mail/fax box.
COMmander 6000/R/RX: COMmander VMF module
COMpact 5010 VoIP: COMpact 2VoIP module
COMpact 5020 VoIP: COMpact 2VoIP or 6VoIP module
A voice mail/faxbox that has been set up has priority over a local answering machine, which means a local answering machine does not accept incoming calls if a voice mail/fax box has already been set up for the subscriber.
