Voice Mail Integration
System Availability: All systems
The CIX670 and CIX1200 supports Dual-tone Multi-frequency (DTMF) integration, Simplified
Message Desk Interface (SMDI) integration, and Toshiba Proprietary integration.
DTMF Integration
DTMF integration uses DTMF strings to pass and interpret information between the Strata CIX
and a voice mail system. DTMF integration can be used with any compatible voice mail system. It
does not require optional hardware interface.
Simplified Message Desk Interface (SMDI)
SMDI is an industry standard method of integrating a telephone system with voice mail or other
peripheral systems. This interconnection is made via an RS-232 data connection. SMDI requires
the BSIS interface in the Strata CIX. SMDI integration can be used with any compatible voice
mail system.
Toshiba Proprietary Integration
Toshiba proprietary integration provides the highest functionality between the Strata CIX and a
Stratagy voice processing system. Toshiba proprietary integration requires the BSIS interface for
control signaling between Stratagy and Strata CIX. Toshiba proprietary integration is required to
use Stratagy voice processing system’s support the features of Call Record to Voice Mail and Voice
Mail Soft Keys.
Call Record to Voice Mail
While on an active call, a station user can record the conversation and store it in a Stratagy ES
voice mailbox by pressing
Record on the digital telephone. To end the recording, they can press
Record again. Station users can also stop and start recording by pressing PS/RES.
Users can replay recorded messages by calling the voice mailbox that has the stored recording and
play it back as any other message. The “record to” mailbox can be any mailbox number and can be
accessed automatically when
Record is pressed or dialed after Record is pressed.
Recording to Voice Mail (VM) is available on two-party and multi-party conference calls.
Voice Mail Soft Keys (Stratagy ES / iES32 / iES16 and GVMU / LVMU / GVPH only)
Voice Mail Soft Keys provide LCD telephone users with an active set of Soft Keys that prompt the
user with available commands to play Voice Mail messages and to manage their mail boxes.
The LCD shows the number of New and Saved messages in the user’s mailbox.
The number of New/Saved messages displays on the LCD when the telephone is idle and has at
least one new message.
Soft Keys requires the Toshiba Proprietary VM integration and connection to the Strata CIX LAN.
