Using Amanda

Introducing Amanda

Amanda is an automated telephone attendant and voice messaging system

designed especially for ease of use and flexibility. To you and the people

who call you, Amanda is also a voice on the telephone guiding you to

people, services, and messages.

Each user of the Amanda system has both a mailbox and a telephone

extension number. These are always the same number. The extension

number is what Amanda dials to reach you when you have a call. The

mailbox identifies a record in Amanda’s database. The record contains fields

that define how Amanda processes your calls. You can change the contents

of these fields from a touch-tone telephone using a series of menus. For

example, you may turn Do Not Disturb on and off during a hectic day.

In addition to these fields, each mailbox has greetings that you record. For

example, when you cannot answer the telephone, callers hear a greeting that

asks them to leave a message.

Your mailbox is configured to ring a telephone extension and record

messages from callers. You periodically check your mailbox for messages,

or you may be notified that a message exists in a variety of ways.

This chapter explains how to use Amanda effectively from your office

telephone extension and while you are out of the office. However, you don’t

need this guide at your side every time you log into Amanda. She prompts

you at every step.

2 Using Amanda@SOHO

Logging into Amanda

To perform the operations explained in this chapter, you must log into

Amanda, identifying yourself with your mailbox and/or security code. The

blank space in the following sets of instructions is for Amanda’s telephone

number. You get this number from your Amanda administrator. Initially your

security code is the same number as your mailbox.

To log into Amanda:

Dial: _______ (Amanda’s number) + + mailbox + + security code +

OR (if your telephone switching system uses an auto-login feature):

Dial: _______ (Amanda’s number) + security code +

NOTE:If Amanda asks for a securitycodeimmediatelyandyouare

at someone else’s extension, use:

Dial: _______ (Amanda’s number) + + +

mailbox + + security code +

You can dial your security code (even though Amanda will say it is

an invalid security code). Then provide your mailbox:

Dial: _______ + security code + + mailbox +

To log into Amanda from outside of the office:

Dial: _______ (the office number) + + mailbox + + security code +

NOTE:You can hang up on Amanda at any time. However, if you

have an older model telephone switching system, Amanda

waits to be sure a disconnect has occurred.

If you have a message light and message button on your

telephone, you can log into Amanda by pressing the mes-

sage button while the message light is on.

When you see this symbol, use one of the methods

of logging into Amanda and identifying yourself

that is described in this section.

Using Amanda 3

Setting Up Amanda

As a new Amanda user, you should:

• Create a name and extension recording

• Put your name in the employee directory

• Change your security code

• Tell Amanda how you want to be notified about new messages

• Record one or more greetings

• Schedule greetings (if appropriate)

The first time you log into Amanda, she asks you if you want to set up your

mailbox. You press to set it up or to set it up at another time.

When you press , Amanda walks you through the first three of these

activities and then offers a menu that allows you to perform the others.

Follow the directions she gives you over the telephone to set up your

mailbox properly.

At the end, Amanda allows you to save or reject your changes. If you reject

the changes, Amanda walks you through these activities again the next time

you log into.

After the initial setup, you can change any of your settings individually as

explained later in this guide. You can also reset your mailbox to eliminate all

the current settings and be treated by Amanda as a first-time user once again.

To reset your mailbox:

(For login information, see “Logging into Amanda” on page 2.)

Putting Your Name in the Directory

If you put the first few digits of your first and last names in the employee

directory, callers can find you even if they do not know your extension

number. Amanda tells callers that they can dial 411 to locate you in the

directory.

To change your FIRST NAME in the employee directory:

(For login information, see “Logging into Amanda” on page 2.)

++ + + + a maximum of 8 digits representing +

your first name

To change your LAST NAME in the employee directory:

(For login information, see “Logging into Amanda” on page 2.)

++ + + + a maximum of 8 digits representing +

your last name

Changing Your Security Code

Your initial security code is usually your mailbox number or 997. It is a good

idea to change it immediately and often. Changing your security code

ensures that only you and other authorized personnel can access your

messages.

To change your security code:
