Using Default US English Voice Prompts
The default set of voice prompts is provided in US English and is the standard set of voice prompts supplied with the
MCU. These are spoken by a female voice in Americanized English.
If your MCU is using customized voice prompts and you want to return to using the default set of voice prompts:
1. Go to Settings>User interface.
2. In the Select customization section, clear Use customized voice prompts.
3. If your MCU was provided to you as a localized MCU, clear Use localization package (this disables the
package).
4. Click Apply changes.
Note: clicking Delete permanently removes the package from the MCU.
The default voice prompts will be applied immediately, although it may take a few seconds before everyone
connected to the MCU is able to hear the new prompts.
Uploading a Customization Package
It is possible to upload a collection of alternative voice prompts to the MCU with a single upload operation, using a
customization package. Such a package may have been supplied to you by Cisco or one of its representatives, or you
may have created the package yourself (see Downloading a customization package).
To upload a package:
1. Go to Settings>User interface.
2. In the Upload customization package section, click Browse and locate the .package file on your computer.
3. Click Upload package.
The upload may take several seconds, depending on the size of the package file and the speed of your network
connection. When the upload is complete, a status screen will be shown, displaying some or all of the individual
voice prompt customizations included in the package if the upload was a success, or an error message if the upload
failed for some reason.
To apply the uploaded customization package:
■ In the Select customization section, select Use customized voice prompts.
Note: If you were already using uploaded alternative voice prompts on the MCU, then these will be immediately
replaced by those in the customization package. If a particular customized file is not included in the package, then
any existing customization is unchanged. This allows customization sets to be built up using several different
packages if required.
Viewing the Available Voice Prompts
You may review the voice prompt customizations available in the table headed Voice prompts. The Voice prompts
list displays all voice prompt customizations, providing details for those which have alternatives uploaded. Because
these lists can be quite long, by default they are hidden. Instead, the number of customizations (files) available is
shown. If any have been modified (meaning an alternative customization has been uploaded, either individually, or as
part of a package), then this is indicated by an asterisk after the table name.
To expand any list to show all customizations, click show file details; you may subsequently hide it again by clicking
hide file details.
In the expanded state, the table shows, for each customization, a description of the file, the standard MCU filename
for the customization, and the length and date modified (uploaded) of alternative customizations present. Extra
information is provided by the following symbols:
