Block Types and Descriptions

Announcements Block
Description
An Announcement Block contains recorded voice information. Each block may contain up to 15 minutes of recorded
voice information for playback in an audiotext application. After playing the announcement, control is passed to the
target of the NEXT pointer. This is either to another announcement block, or back to the Audiotext Librarian Block con-
trolling this announcement application. Each block, or group of announcement blocks, is associated with and man-
aged by an Audiotext Librarian. The Announcement Block is commonly used to speak information to the caller which
is updated on a regular basis.
To play an announcement block, a menu is used to collect digits from the caller that match the number of the
announcement block, and then the menu block passes control to an Audiotext Librarian. The Audiotext Librarian calls
the announcement that matches the digits entered by the caller.
Announcements may be up to 15 minutes long and can easily be added or changed by an authorized person calling
from any Touch-Tone phone.
