OV250 outcall to three cell phones ???

[WideTrac]

I have a customer that currently usses the auto-forward feature on the Octel 100 syste. They are changing the system out to an Octel OV250 system that does not have that feature.
OV100 = Emergency call is left on the mailbox setup to outcall to a cell phone, if the system did not receive acknowledgement it would auto-forward to the next box after 10 minutes, then to the third mailbox after another 10 minutes.

Can this be simulated on the OV250? or by using the PBX, Merlin Magix?

The only way you can do it is if the Octel 250 has feature bit 22 turned on. And even then it will be a dirty application. You would setup a type 10 forms mailbox and then 3 type 11 mailboxes. the type 10 would send the message to all 3 at the same time and you would set the outcall times at immediately one hour and then 2 hours. I think that is the only way to do it. You may want to use EVM that will run with the 250 and send a text message to the phones when a new message is left.
