Default FCOS

Several FCOS are pre-programmed in the default configuration. This section describes the default FCOS. Within the feature bit list for each default FCOS, master feature bits appear in bold type. You can select a default FCOS that matches your needs and assign it to a mailbox, or you can customize your own FCOS, using a default FCOS as a template.

We recommend that you preserve these default COS settings and customize FCOS when you require extra features.

 

 Note: Operations that involve interactions with other mailboxes (make, give, answer) are limited to those mailboxes with compatible Group Class of Service (GCOS).

FCOS 1: Unlimited

This FCOS contains most standard feature bits, except for the message-addressing options. The user can record name and greeting, change the passcode, and receive messages from other users and outside callers. The user can also play, keep, discard, answer, give messages and make new messages for other system users or for distribution lists, as well as create and modify distribution lists. Although this FCOS suits the needs of users with standard applications, do not think of it as truly “unlimited,” which implies that the mailbox is not restricted. It is, more accurately, the basic FCOS for a system.

Note:  New mailboxes have FCOS 1 assigned to them by default unless you specify another FCOS.

FCOS 1 contains the following bits:

001 Login to mailbox
002 Transfer to mailbox attendant

FCOS 2: Full Guest

This FCOS is used in the hotel/motel environment where no Property Management System (PMS) integration is available. It has fewer capabilities than FCOS 1 (Unlimited). However, some feature bits allow check-in and check-out mailboxes to reach this type of mailbox.

FCOS 3: Restricted

This FCOS is used by hotels. Guests cannot enter or change their names, greetings, or passcodes; make, answer, or give messages; or create or use distribution lists. They can, however, keep and discard messages. Only the attendant can record names and greetings and assign passcodes. For a hotel or motel environment, a name and passcode are usually entered for this mailbox from a special check-in (see default FCOS 4) mailbox. Callers hear the greeting “Please leave a message for [name].”

A guest logs into the mailbox and hears the count of unplayed messages. Unplayed messages play automatically (that is, the guest hears the first message and all succeeding messages without having to press P to play). All messages are automatically kept, unless the guest presses D (to delete messages) within a few seconds.

FCOS 3 contains the following bits:

001 Login to mailbox
002 Transfer to mailbox attendant
003 Return to welcome prompt  
004 Outside caller functions

005 Play Outside Caller Menu prompts
006 Rewind and fast forward during playback

FCOS 4: Check In

This FCOS is used by hotels for a check-in mailbox, a special mailbox that manipulates other mailboxes. In a check-in mailbox, the system prompts for the mailbox number to be checked in, then prompts the attendant to record a name and enter a passcode for the mailbox. Guest mailboxes controlled by FCOS 4 must contain feature bit 008 (Mailbox can be checked in/out). Guest mailboxes are therefore usually assigned default FCOS 2 (Full Guest) or default FCOS 3 (Restricted).

FCOS 4 contains the following bits:

001 Login to mailbox
004 Outside caller functions
005 Play Outside Caller Menu prompts
066 Login during greeting in greet only mailbox  
070 User Options Menu

071 Record or change mailbox name
072 Record or change greeting
090 Check in other mailboxes

FCOS 5: Check Out

This FCOS is used by hotels for a check-out mailbox that is the counterpart of the check-in mailbox. In a check-out mailbox, the server prompts for the mailbox number to be checked out. The attendant can then choose to either keep or discard any messages left in the mailbox. Finally, the server purges the guest’s name, greeting, and passcode, and follows the attendant’s command about messages. The mailbox is then ready to be checked in for the next guest.

You must create a check-out mailbox to use the hotel check-in/check-out feature. Guest mailboxes controlled by FCOS 4 must contain feature bit 008 (Mailbox can be checked in/out). Guest mailboxes are therefore usually assigned default FCOS 2 (Full Guest) or default FCOS 3 (Restricted).

FCOS 5 contains the following bits:

001 Login to mailbox  
004 Outside caller functions

005 Play Outside Caller Menu prompts
066 Login during greeting in greet only mailbox  
070 User Options Menu

071 Record or change mailbox name
072 Record or change greeting
091 Check out other mailboxes

FCOS 6: Greeting Only

When a caller reaches a Greeting-Only mailbox, the server plays the greeting and then hangs up. For example, a theater manager wants callers to hear an announcement of show times. The manager creates a mailbox with this FCOS, logs in to the mailbox, and records a greeting that announces show times. The mailbox owner can change the mailbox name, greeting, and passcode, but cannot create or use distribution lists. A Greeting-Only mailbox cannot accept messages. A Greeting-Only mailbox must have a greeting; otherwise, the server considers the mailbox invalid. To log into a Greeting-Only mailbox that does not have a greeting, press the * (star) key, then enter the mailbox number. You can remove feature bit 066 (Login during greeting in greet-only mbx) after you record a greeting for the mailbox.

FCOS 6 contains the following bits:

001 Login to mailbox
002 Transfer to mailbox attendant
003 Return to welcome prompt
060 Ignore DTMFs during greeting
062 Hang up immediately after greeting

FCOS 8: Chain

Chain mailboxes play a greeting, then route calls to the mailbox selected by the caller. A chain mailbox cannot accept messages. Assign this chain FCOS to a mailbox and record a greeting for the mailbox. A chain mailbox prompts callers to enter a mailbox number or to wait. If callers enter a mailbox number, the chain mailbox routes the call to that mailbox. If callers wait (do not immediately enter a mailbox number), NuPoint Voice transfers the call to the attendant’s mailbox or to the attendant, depending on the configuration. When a mailbox owner logs in to this type of mailbox, NuPoint Voice prompts, “Press U to change user options, X to exit.” The mailbox owner can change the mailbox name, greeting, and passcode, but cannot make messages or create or use distribution lists. Chain mailbox is a default, unless the FCOS has one of these feature bits: 062 (Hang up immediately after greeting), one of the receive message feature bits, or any of the tree, rotational, or broadcast mailbox feature bits. If these feature bits are not included, the general greeting plays, which asks the caller for a mailbox number.

Note:  NP Receptionist and the Chain FCOS: NP Receptionist is an optional feature. The server prompts the caller to enter an extension number, then transfers the caller to that extension. If the caller does not enter an extension, the server transfers the call to the attendant’s extension, if one is defined; otherwise NP Receptionist transfers the call to the attendant’s mailbox. If you include feature bit 141 (Define chain mailbox in Receptionist), a chain mailbox routes a call to an extension even if the chain mailbox has no greeting.

001 Login to mailbox
002 Transfer to mailbox attendant
003 Return to welcome prompt
066 Login during greeting in greet only mailbox

FCOS 9: Time

This is a Greeting-Only mailbox that plays its greeting, announces the system time, and asks for a mailbox number. Feature bit 065 (Play system time after greeting) plays the time; if you want this function without announcing the time, you can copy this FCOS to a new number and leave feature bit 065 out of the new version.

A user can log in and change user options (mailbox name, greeting, and passcode), but cannot create or use distribution lists. A time mailbox does not accept messages.

FCOS 9 contains the following bits:

001 Login to mailbox

FCOS 16: NP Forms

This “template” FCOS is used with NP Forms, an optional feature used to record information from callers in templates, “voice forms.” A mailbox with this FCOS plays the greetings stored in its child mailboxes, sequentially, and records a message after each greeting. A typical application might have a rotational mailbox (see FCOS 17), with several child NP Forms mailboxes, all pointing to the same list of Greeting-Only mailboxes. You can also use feature bit 139 (Template: assume last greet mbox FCOS).

FCOS 16 contains the following bits:

You can also assign any one of the following additional feature bits to a rotational mailbox:

062 Hang up immediately after greeting
063 Call mailbox attendant after greeting
064 Call mailbox user ext after greeting

You can use rotational mailboxes with NP Forms (see FCOS 16) to route the caller to an NP Forms “template” mailbox; this requires feature bit 149 (Login to template thru rotational mbx).

Note:  Do not include feature bit 041 (Receive messages from outside callers) because it disables the mailbox’s rotation features.

FCOS 18: Financial

This FCOS provides advanced options with more feature bits than FCOS 1, for administrator convenience. It contains the following features: Multiple make/give, Attach original message to answer, and Message addressing options (New Message Notification, Mark Confidential, and Return Receipt), the Outside Caller’s Menu, and it will include the mailbox in the Dial-By-Name database.
