Page 163: Defined Tokens
Token Programming Defined Tokens Defined Tokens Defined Tokens are expressed with left and right parentheses surrounding one or more definitions that determine how the token should work. For example, the Goto token G( ) only takes one definition. Stratagy immediately “goes to” the User ID specified for processing. For G(123), Stratagy continues processing at User ID 123.

Page 168 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Audiotex menu—the M( ) token enables you to specify fast single-digit entry for audiotex menu selections. While Stratagy processes this token, it plays (or says) the specified greeting while waiting for a single DTMF digit to be pressed by the caller.
Page 169 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description N( ) Examples (continued) Suppose an ASCII file contains a listing of dealers, available parts, and orders on those parts. You could use the R( ) token to obtain information about how many parts the dealer wants to order and then use the N( ) token to update the database.
Page 170 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Play—the P( ) token enables you to communicate information in a variety of ways to a caller or to a user when used in a Notify record’s Method field. While Stratagy is playing, the skip ( , ) and volume (, ) keys on the telephone work.
Page 171 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Question and answer (Voice Forms)—the Q( ) token enables you to ask a caller a series of questions and store all the caller’s responses as a single message or multiple messages in the current User ID. Record each question as a greeting.
Page 172 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Serial port access—the S( ) token gives Stratagy access to serial ports. By communicating over serial ports, Stratagy can access other computers and store and/or retrieve information from remote databases.
Page 173 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Search for value—the V( ) token searches the specified file, in the specified field, for the value given by item. If Stratagy finds the value, it stores the contents of the second field into variable %Sn. If Stratagy does not find the value, the token terminates and returns to the Done state.
Page 174 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Wait (pause) for event—general wait token that enables Stratagy to wait for confirmation of specific events. It is useful for confirming dial tone and for notification to confirm that the appropriate answer has occurred.
Page 175 Token Programming Defined Tokens Table 7-3 Defined Tokens (continued) Token Description Addition—enables you to perform modifications to values for calculation and control. Ideal for controlling limits and loops. Syntax +(%Sn[,item]) +( ) where: One of the %S storage variables (range: 0~19). item Positive or negative value or another %S variable.

In the example below, assume you want Stratagy to notify the user of the total number of messages and the number of new messages in his User ID mailbox. Program Example In the following example: •...
Page 194: Notification To A Pager On Urgent Messages Only
Customization Examples Notify Menu Examples Notification to a Pager on Urgent Messages Only You can program Stratagy to light a message waiting light for all messages, while paging or calling the user offsite when he receives a message marked Urgent. To do this, for the particular paging Notify record, change the Type field from Normal to Urgent.
Page 195: Relay Paging To A Pager
Customization Examples Notify Menu Examples Relay Paging to a Pager With relay paging, the caller enters his/her number on the telephone dial pad and Stratagy notifies the user by relaying the caller’s telephone number to the user’s pager display. A caller can page without redialing, or even knowing, the user’s pager number.
Page 196: Emergency Lists
Customization Examples Notify Menu Examples Emergency Lists In an emergency list, Stratagy is programmed to notify a series of users if a new message is not picked up. If the original recipient, after a specified time interval, has not picked up the new message, Stratagy continues to notify him/her but also begins notification to a second person.

Page 200: Holiday Greetings-Same Day Each Year
Customization Examples Auto Menu Examples Holiday Greetings—Same Day Each Year Certain holidays, such as Independence Day (July 4th), Christmas (December 25), and New Year’s day (January 1st), occur on the same date each year. To inform callers that your offices are closed for the holiday, you can record a greeting that plays only on the holiday.
Page 201: Holiday Greetings-Different Day Each Year
Customization Examples Auto Menu Examples 3. Plays User ID 991’s greeting 4 (Christmas greeting). To guarantee that Stratagy programs the holiday schedule after the open greeting schedule, the holiday schedule starting time was scheduled one minute after the regular open greeting schedule. Holiday Greetings—Different Day Each Year Certain holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Labor Day, occur on different days each year.
Page 202: Extension Change
Customization Examples Auto Menu Examples How It Works Every year on Thanksgiving, if a caller accesses User ID 990 (Company Greeting) after 8:01 a.m., Stratagy: 1. Plays User ID 990’s greeting 1 (Company Greeting). 2. Follows the User ID 990 chain to User ID 991 (Caller Instructions). 3.

Page 205: Amis Mailboxes
AMIS Networking Stratagy Flash does not support AMIS. Note Audio Messaging Interchange Specification (AMIS) is the analog networking protocol that enables Stratagy to pass voice messages to any remote voice mail system that supports the AMIS protocol. This chapter discusses the following: •...
Page 206: Proxy Mailboxes
AMIS Networking AMIS Node The remote system (node 33) receives the message and stores it in mailbox 200. An exception occurs if the 33200 destination address also exists on the local Stratagy system. The user must follow the node number with “*” (e.g., 33*200) when entering the destination. This flags the message as an AMIS message and the Stratagy system delivers the message to Gateway mailbox 33 at Los Angeles instead of Dallas mailbox 33200.
Page 207: System Identification Number
AMIS Networking System Identification Number System Identification Number The System Identification Number consists of a country code (the digit “1” in North America), area code, and seven-digit phone number. This number not only identifies the calling system, but can also be used by the administrator to configure the local system to enable message replies. Configuring Stratagy for AMIS There are three steps to configuring Stratagy to act as an AMIS node: 1.
Page 208 AMIS Networking Configuring Stratagy for AMIS Table 9-1 AMIS Parameters Parameter Description amis_diskfull Percentage of the flash drive that must be free in order for Stratagy to accept new AMIS messages. If free space is less than this figure, Stratagy tells the calling AMIS system that the flash drive is full.
Page 209 AMIS Networking Configuring Stratagy for AMIS Step 2: Create and Program AMIS Mailboxes Messages are forwarded to, or received from, the remote User ID mailboxes via the Gateway or Proxy mailboxes. The Gateway and Proxy mailboxes must be programmed for AMIS networking to operate properly and involves defining Users and Notify Menu fields.

Page 211: Testing Amis
AMIS Networking Testing AMIS Testing AMIS One method of testing AMIS involves using the AMIS Loopback User ID (default 989). When enabled using the Stratagy system configuration parameter amis_ltm, this User ID can be used by other AMIS nodes for testing the network. Stratagy sends any AMIS message to this User ID back to the sender, assuming the sending system is accessible from the Stratagy system.
Page 212: Private/Urgent Message Handling
AMIS Networking AmisNodeList Private/Urgent Message Handling Because AMIS does not support Special Delivery Options, the Stratagy proprietary options such as “private” or “urgent” are striped off when the message is sent via AMIS. These messages at the receiving mailbox are handled as normal messages. However by using the Notify record, Stratagy can use the “urgent”...

Page 234: Stratagy Diagnostic Utilities
Maintenance, Upgrades and Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Stratagy Diagnostic Utilities Stratagy has several very powerful troubleshooting tools—TRACE.OUT, STRATAGY.LOG, and MSG.LOG. All three of these files are stored in the Stratagy directory and are best utilized in combination with each other. For example, if you are looking for actions related to a specific message, enable MSG.LOG and start a trace.
Page 235 Maintenance, Upgrades and Troubleshooting Troubleshooting MSG.LOG If you need to check actions related to specific types of messaging, you can enable MSG.LOG in the System Configuration file. In this file, Stratagy logs every message received and every mailbox that checks for messages along with the DTMF entered. Important! Since the MSG.LOG file continuously collects information, we recommend that you do not enable the file unless you are looking for specific information.
Page 236: Automatic System Recovery
Maintenance, Upgrades and Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Automatic System Recovery This feature is controlled by two parameters in the Stratagy System Configuration file, restore_original and restore_config. The parameters default to TRUE and enable the Stratagy to create an Archive directory (c:\Stratagy\Archive).
