SoundPoint 321 - v4.0.1 Voicemail?

[tomhill]

Hi,

When I recieve a VM the phone shows the new message on the screen and the top lamp flashes, however is it possible to set a key to call the VM server to retrieve the VM (after the user logs in)?

I noticed that the 321 handset comes with a replacement key labled "Messages" but how do I configure perhaps the Line 2 key to dial the VM server?

The handset is running v4.0.1

Kind regards,

Tom

Thanks Steffen,

I have had a look at the doc and made the changes to the features.cfg file so it now reads:

<key key.1.function.prim="" key.1.subPoint.prim="" key.2.function.prim="Messages" key.2.subPoint.prim=""></key>

This is as close as I could get to the instructions so I hope it's right. I rebooted the handset and ensured features.cfg was downloaded by the handset however how do I configure the button? Pressing it doesn't do anything at the moment. I assume I need to configure what number the handset should dial to access VM?

Kind regards,

Tom

The Example in above was key.IP_330.10.function.prim

From the FAQ:

"Nov 4, 2011 Question: How can I change the functionality of an Hardware Button?

Resolution: Please check => here <= "

So your SoundPointIP is listed on page 435 in the UCS 4.0.1 Admin Guide as SPIP321

Please then check the UCS 4.0.1 Admin Guide on Page 349 as it will show you that line key number 2 has the Key ID 10.

So this results in key.SPIP321.10.function.prim="Messages"

Sorry Steffen, thanks for your help but I'm strugulling with the XML. The file features.cfg contains the following line:

<key key.1.function.prim="" key.1.subPoint.prim="" key.2.function.prim="" key.2.subPoint.prim=""></key>

Since your reply I have tried changing it to:

<key key.SPIP321.10.function.prim="Messages" key.1.function.prim="" key.1.subPoint.prim="" key.2.function.prim="" key.2.subPoint.prim=""></key>

But it still comes up with the error.. Am I editing the right file? Does it matter?

Kind regards,

Tom

Tom,

the App Log should show you why the phone is complaining.

I think the error in features.cfg is nothing to worry about.  I get 1 error reported in mine, and it's just this:

000035.942|cfg  |*|03|Prm|Config/features.cfg: Value 9999 for configuration parameter dir.local.contacts.maxNum is too large, using 99, the maximum allowed

If your app log (As Steffen mentioned) shows that message as well, then I'd say the error is not related to your Messages button.

The way I've set up access to voicemail is by setting the msg.mwi.1.callBack parameter in sip-interop.cfg to the appropriate extension.  I'm guessing the "Messages" button activates the extension listed there, so you should set that and see if it works.

Hi cmdrwalrus,

That's exactly what I get actually.

0308134515|cfg  |*|03|Prm|RNfeatures.cfg: Value 9999 for configuration parameter dir.local.contacts.maxNum is too large, using 99, the maximum allowed

Also, from a seperate post sip(url?) dialling is back! I'm not having much luck with this test handset..

Hello all,

I am unsure what kind of configuration you are using or have modified but to get back to the original Topic below a working simple registration:

	<voicemail key.SPIP321.10.function.prim="Messages" reg.1.address="3009" reg.1.auth.password="3009" reg.1.auth.userId="3009" reg.1.label="3009"  reg.1.server.1.address="10.252.75.119/>

Pressing the Line 2 Button brings up the message center and I can access my Voicemail (phone dials own number).

If you require additional assistance from Polycom Support to troubleshoot this issue please raise this via your Polycom Reseller as this is outside the scope of this Polycom Community for Polycom employed support personnel.

Hi Steffen,

My handset does that also but I want to change the number it dials to dial our voicemail server, is that possible?
