Using the Telephone User Interface (TUI) Menu Options
The Telephone User Interface is used for the following purposes:
o To listen to the actual message that will be heard by list members
o To re record the callout message for a selected list
o To start or stop a notification callout list from a remote location
o To remotely change the date/time schedule to start the callout
The TUI menu options are presented in an audible fashion and selected by pressing
the appropriate digits on a tone dial telephone. The procedure for calling into
Instant Notify to access the TUI menu depends on how your system was
configured. Your system installer or administrator will instruct you on what to
dial for accessing the TUI. Typically it would be one of these methods:
o Calling into a specially assigned telephone number
o Calling into your company’s automated attendant and dialing a special digit
or an extension number
o Calling into your phone system and dialing a special code to give you
internal dial tone so you can dial the TUI extension number i.e. (Direct
Inward System Access)
o Other
When you access the TUI you will hear a welcome greeting. For security it will
then instruct you to enter the following information:
1. Enter your User ID digits and then press the pound (#) key
2. Enter your Password digits and then press the pound (#) key
The Main Menu will then give you a choice to select a List Number you want to
access or Dial 0 to hear the number of lists you own (See Figure 15). When unsure
of the list number, you can listen to the associated callout message recording to
verify it is the list you really want to select.
After selecting your list number, you can listen to the current callout message for
that list and record a new message if desired.
The menu speaks the current status of the callout list and depending on the current
state, allows you to start or stop the callouts immediately or set a new callout start
schedule Month/Day/Year. You are prompted to enter a 2 digit Month number, 2
digit Day of the Month number and a 4 digit Year of when you want the callout list
to start making calls.
If the callout message was created using the Text to Speech option, you can
override it by recording a new message using the TUI.
Exit the TUI by terminating the call.
