Automatically call intercom and play message?

[Chicken]

Does Mitel have the ability to automatically dial my intercom and play a recording? Is it possible to schedule an auto-call?

Thank you!

The PBX itself doesn't do that but what kind of message are we talking about?

We have to dial the intercom and make multiple announcements daily over the paging system. I was asked to see if it can be automated. Basically wondering if the system can dial a specific number (intercom) and play a message.

For example, every day at a specific time, we have to remind employees to access a webform to let us know if they will be in the building after hours so other employees leaving don't activate the alarm.

So same message at the same time everyday.  Correct?

The 3300 won't be able to do that but perhaps the NuPoint may be able to.

Other than that, I don't know of anything else. It might be fun to create something. Do you have SIP trunks?

We have NuPoint. Any thoughts on how we can do that? I do have SIP trunks.

No. I can't help there but I'm sure someone else on here may be able to.

How many messages do you need to create?

If I can create one I'd be happy.

An Algo 8301 paging controller can play audio files over the paging output on a schedule. I've got several customers that use this for break/shift change bells, we just play an audio file of a tone. You could do the same thing with pre-recorded announcements, just set up a schedule and play the appropriate recorded announcement for the scheduled event.

I believe we currently use a Cisco ATA. Would the algo replace it?
