   1. Text-to-Speech: Use the text-to-speech option to type in a message and select an automated voice that will read out what is typed. Once the message has been typed out, click the Save button.
      
   2. Upload: Using the upload option, you can upload a converted audio file and give the intro message a name. Once the file has been selected on your PC, click the Upload button.
      
   3. Record: The record option allows you to type in the phone number or extension number for the phone system to send a call.  Click the Call button to send a call to the number. When the call is answered, it will record whatever is said to it.
