CallPilot is like an answering machine.  Each phone will be connected to this system.  There will be only one phone per room.  This will only work on pushbutton phones.  If you do not wish to have CallPilot, please call Information Technology Services at ext. 4848.  If you have a roommate or roommates, turning CallPilot off has to be agreed upon by everyone. 

Your initial password will be 0 plus your four digit extension number.  When you login to CallPilot for the first time, you will receive a message that a temporary password assigned by your administrator must be changed.  To access your mailbox, please press 84 and change your password.  The directions on how to change the password can be found at the bottom of this page.
