Moving from a Octell 200 to a Octel 350. One feature that we used in the 200 was outcall notification to cell phones where the system would out call to 3 different cell phones when it recieved a Urgent Message. The system would out call to one cell phone on the first attempt, wait 15 minutes then outcall to the second cell phone on the second attempt, wait 15 minutes and then outcall the third cell phone on the third attempt.

I am being told the 350 can not do this and I find that hard to believe.

Please respond asap if you know it can be done.

Thanks!!!
 
I don't believe there is a specific feature or mailbox "type" to do what you could do on the Octel Serenade 200 for outcall notification using the extended mailboxes for alternate offsite numbers. You could use the OctelDesigner features to get a custom application to do this, but this would require additional things and costs. If you still had the Octel 200 you could network messages from the Octel 350 to the Octel 200 as a work around.
 
It does not have that feature per say but you can use a type 10 mailbox and send the message to 3 type 11 mailboxes and set each one to outcall at different times IE one immediately then the 2nd one at 15 minutes and the third one at one half hour.

using this way you could have it call unlimited cell phone all at the same time or at different times. As ChuckRCT said you can also use a mutare app to do the same thing only better.
