Press Cancel or 
(this ends
the recording, not the call).
Record-a-Call (RAC) allows extension users to record a two-party call when one party is connected to a trunk. The recorded conversation is stored in the users' voice mail mailbox. You have the option of using the ports that store voice mail messages for RAC, or you can set up ports exclusively for recorded messages.
You can configure this feature to automatically
record incoming trunk calls when the call is answered at the extension, or
record external outgoing calls that are made from a system extension to destinations on the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), or
record both incoming trunk calls and external outgoing calls for the same extension.
Hanging up or pressing CANCEL on applicable sets ends (and saves) the recording. Users can also pause and resume, stop and erase, or stop and save a recording in progress.
If the trunk party terminates the call first, the RAC session continues allowing the user to add comments to the recording.
Beginning with MiVoice Business 8.0, the RAC feature access key (FAK) on 53xx and 69xx devices pauses and resumes the recording. When paused, the LED associated with the FAK flashes and the Pause softkey changes to Resume. Pressing the FAK again resumes the recording.
RAC should only be used in conjunction with the laws of the jurisdiction where the call is placed from and/or the laws of the jurisdiction of the place being called. Mitel is not liable for misuse of this feature in a manner that does not conform with the applicable law. for example: laws involving wiretapping, eavesdropping, electronic surveillance, call recording etc. Dealers should warn the customer in writing that they are responsible for the use of this feature in accordance with the law, and that in many jurisdictions both parties must be made aware that the call is being recorded.
RAC is not supported on IP Console applications. See Device Support below for more information.
RAC is supported in Auto-record mode only with no ability to control the recording for SIP phones, OpenPhone 27 phones, and External Hot Desk users. (See Programming Note.)
RAC functionality has the following constraints:
RAC can only be on two party calls when one party in the call is a trunk.
NOTE: The RAC feature will not work for a call if the phone has another call on hold.
The OpenPhone 27 handset can only use the Auto-record mode.
On sets without softkeys, you can use Auto-record mode, or you can press a pre-programmed Feature Key to start recording. In both cases (Auto Record or pre-programmed Feature Access Key) you must set COS Option "Save Recording on Hang-up" to YES.
RAC Feature Access Keys are only functional when the device is connected to a trunk.
RAC prompts are only displayed on supported devices when the device is connected to a trunk and in two-party talk state. Once started, recording continues over all call states. During non-talking states (i.e., dialing, listening to ringback), the system automatically pauses the recording and resumes it when the user re-enters talk state. User-invoked Pause overrides the system automatic pause. For example: a user initiates a recording while talking to a trunk party. The user then flashes to make an inquiry call. The system responds by pausing the recording. When the inquiry call enters talk state, the recording automatically resumes.
Recording of conversations over IP trunks and SIP trunks is supported.
Phones are RAC-enabled using COS option programming.
Override (Intrude), Group Page, ACD Help, and Direct Page are rejected by devices in a RAC session.
ACD Help and RAC are mutually exclusive: if an agent is using ACD Help, they cannot start a recording and vice versa.
The RAC feature preempts the ACD Help session if the recording is started first. If the ACD Help session is started first, then the RAC feature is preempted.
Silent monitoring (and coaching) a party while they are using Record-A-Call is supported.
The "COV/ONS/E&M Voice Mail Port" feature must not be enabled in the Class of Service of the incoming trunk. If the "COV/ONS/E&M Voice Mail Port" feature is enabled for the trunk of the incoming call, the Record Call feature key will not function.
RAC is not available in Meet Me Conference.
The maximum number of concurrent RAC sessions MiVoice Business supports is platform-type dependent. See the MiVoice Business Engineering Guidelines for more information
Each RAC session uses one voice mail port and one conference plus three conferee resources.
There is no time limit on a RAC session. The only limitation may come from the vxWorks operating system's hard disk space, which allows a maximum file size of 4GB. Otherwise, the recording can continue until the system runs out of memory.
Tones are not given to any party to indicate that the call is being recorded.
A voice mailbox must be programmed against the extension's prime directory number.
For networked voice mail, the Recorder hunt group must be programmed on the same switch as the set requiring RAC support. The feature will not work if the Recorder hunt group is programmed on another switch and referenced via a remote directory number.
For resilient NuPoint/MiCollab Nupoint UM voice mail, the feature will work at each of the resilient controllers but only for when the device and the recorder ports are active on the same controller.
Unlike regular voice mail sessions, RAC sessions do not time out after five minutes. However, 60 seconds of silence in the conversation will cause automatic termination of the RAC session.
RAC recordings DO NOT activate the Message Waiting Indicator. When the user accesses the mailbox, the Voice Mail prompts, "You have 'N' new message, 'N' saved messages and 'N' recorded conversations." The recorded conversations is stored in order of arrival and interspersed with any new/saved messages.
If the system goes out of service while a message is being recorded (that is, before the user saves the message), the message will not be available after the system is rebooted.
The message "recorder not available" appears under the following conditions but only on 5140 and 5540 IP phones:
a RAC session has already been initiated by one of the participants
a caller attempts a session during a conference call
no voice mail ports are available
During the recording, if the person you called places you on hold or park, the recording still continues.
If you or the person you are talking to press the Trans/Conf button (or its equivalent), the system automatically pauses the recording. The recording automatically resumes when your call re-enters talk state.
The Add Held overrides the RAC prompts.
Camp-on is supported, but without indications and softkey prompts (Call Waiting display, Trade softkey, Camp-on tone) for parties that are involved in a RAC session. Camped on calls mature when the call completes (or when another member of a busy multicall/key group including a prime currently in RAC session goes idle).
A user called using Direct Page can initiate a RAC session; however, RAC softkeys are removed for the duration of the page. To terminate the RAC session, the user must either wait for the page to end or press Hold followed by the RAC feature key while the page is in progress.
During a RAC session, if a user presses Trans/Conf (or its equivalent) and makes an inquiry call, the recording is automatically paused while the inquiry call is placed and automatically resumed when the inquiry call enters talk state. However, the RAC prompts are not presented. When the user reverts to a simple two-party call, the RAC prompts are re-displayed.
Outgoing RAC is not supported on a phone that is locked. Thus, a RAC session is not automatically started if a caller makes an emergency call to a PSTN destination from a locked phone.
The timestamp in the message envelope is based on the mailbox DN's local time.
The following conditions apply to automatic call recording:
If automatic call recording is enabled, you must set the "Save Recording on Hang-up" COS option to YES, or you must manually press the Save key before you hang up.
Any trunk that is designated as a "Public Trunk" in the Class of Service Options form supports automatic outgoing RAC.
Automatic recording of outgoing calls is supported for calls that are placed from an extension on a MiVoice Business system across MiVoice Business transit nodes to a destination on the PSTN.
Automatic recording of outgoing external calls is supported for transfers if the internal party transferred to the PSTN destination is considered by the system to be the originator of the call. Similarly, automatic recording of incoming trunk calls is supported for transfers if the internal party transferred to the incoming trunk is considered by the system to be the terminator of the call. To ensure automatic recording of transferred calls involving a PSTN destination, enable automatic recording of both incoming trunk and outgoing external calls in the internal party's COS.
Automatic recording of outgoing calls is supported for calls that are forwarded, diverted, or rerouted to destinations on the PSTN.
Automatic recording of outgoing calls is not supported for recalls. Recalls from PSTN destinations are considered incoming calls. Recalls can be automatically recorded if Record-a-Call - Start Automatic Incoming Call Recording is enabled in the COS of the internal phone.
An extension in automatic record mode that is placed on hold will have their recording paused by the system and presented with Music on Hold if configured.
Outgoing calls placed to External Hot Desk users are not automatically recorded. The system does not consider External Hot Desk users as PSTN destinations. However, outgoing calls placed by an External Hot Desk user to a PSTN destination can be auto recorded.
A RAC session will not be automatically started if you call an external PSTN destination while you have a call on hold.
A RAC session will not be started automatically when you retrieve a call from hard hold. You must restart call recording manually. This creates a new recording in the party's mailbox.
