Configuring Menu Items
The AA is a tree-based structure with unlimited tree levels. The following rules guide the
basic AA configuration:
• Each item is an action point with its ID number and name.
• The top of the tree is a "O" (for Origin).
• A timeout is indicated by a "T".
• Any action item can have a "Prompt". The drop-down list displays phrase files
located at C:\Postoffice\Phrases\LangCustom directory. A phrase file can be any
file name. (Note: Prior to the 5.1 Release, the "Phrase" directory was under
C:AltiServ, and custom phrases had to use a phrase number from 0001 to 0999.)
• If one action item has multiple choices, you need to select "Expand Tree" instead
of using "Go to next menu" to create a new level.
• You can jump to any action item within the same AA.
Every item will execute steps according to the following rules:
• First step—Play prompt if the box is checked. If the prompt box is not checked,
the AA will go to the second step without delay.
• Second step—Execute the action selected from the drop down list. The drop down
list contains the following actions:
