Example of Recordings to give Auto-attendant functions
In this example there are two different published telephone numbers one for the personnel department
and the other for the training department. The company’s Private Branch exchange (PBX) is set-up so
the calls arriving for the personnel department are routed to ports 2,3,or 4 of the M310/M311
announcer system where these ports have had announcement 2 assigned to them. Calls arriving for the
training department are routed to ports 5,6 or 7 of the M310/M311 announcer system where
announcement 3 has been assigned to them.

Note the recall plus digits at the end of announcements 2 and 3. This ensures that callers who are not
sure of their requirements, or are calling from an old non tone dialling phones, are routed to where
general enquires are dealt with.
It is essential that the PBX is set-up so that callers are not returned to the same port of the M310/M311
announcer system which transferred them., where callers, due to all agents being busy or not answering,
are not guaranteed to be answered. This problem may be resolved by routing failed calls to another port
on the M310/M311 announcer system with the following announcement assigned.
