PLACE SAMPLE CALL
After recording messages and setting up the message profiles you need to preview the new messages by placing a sample call within your library. You should preview all message profiles that you change, or new message component files you record.
The TNS Sample Call function allows you to deliver a call without dialling a standard prefix such as 9 before the telephone number.

  1. From the TNS Main Menu, press 9 or move your arrow key to select 9. Utilities and press the Enter key
  2. Select 1. Sample call, and press the Enter key
  3. At the Phone number prompt you will see the last number used for testing
  4. To use the existing number press the Enter key, or Type a new telephone number and press the Enter key
  5. At the TNS prompt Message Profile, type the profile name you want to preview exactly as you named it, e.g. HPØ, ODØ
  6. If you entered a Hold pickup message profile name, e.g. HPØ, the system will prompt you to enter a Spoken date. This corresponds to the [DATE.xxx] component of the message profile. Enter a date in mm-dd-yy format to have it previewed in the sample call
  7. At the prompt OK to place call, if the data you have entered is correct, type y for yes.
    If you need to change the data you entered, type n for no, and TNS returns you to the Utilities menu.
    Select 1. Sample call and enter correct data
  8. Listen to your sample call, and adjust your message profiles, or re-record message components if necessary
