Virtual Port used for Floating Hold
You can assign a virtual port that is not assigned an extension number to be used for floating hold. The
virtual port is assigned to an FF key. Calls can then be placed on hold on the virtual port FF key. Any
extension that is assigned the same virtual port FF key can then pick up the held call.
This can be used like a system park feature.

PanaVOICE -- Panasonic’s Digital Voice Mail System
PanaVOICE Courier is a PC-based Voice Mail system offered by Panasonic. PanaVOICE Courier is
is fully digital (connects to DBS 576HD digital ports), and is available in integrated and non-
integrated versions. The integrated version provides improved messaging with Message-Waiting
indication, constant message count on display phones, and visual menus on Large-display phones.
You can now install PanaVOICE Courier inside the DBS 576HD cabinet, using the new Integrated
Feature Module (IFM) board. This board is actually a Pentium II 200 MHZ PC with a hard drive and
voice processing capabilities, running Windows NT. Panasonic now pre-loads Integrated Courier
Voice Mail on the IFM board, eliminating the need for an external PC and and API card.
PanaVOICE Courier can also be installed on an external PC and connected to the DBS 576HD via an
API card. See your PanaVOICE documentation for further details.
