122.0. "Educating Customers" by KERNEL::JAMES (Alan James CSC Basingstoke) Sat Dec 08 1990 00:34

	             	-----=== TIME IS MONEY ===-----

	On occasions it takes longer to connect to a system than to diagnose.

	Educating the Customer will help cure this problem.

	We can do this by sending a message to the console terminal before we
	disconnect.

	A few well chosen, diplomatic, meaningful, unambiguous words should
	do the trick. Any ideas?

      ******** MESSAGE FROM THE REMOTE DIAGNOSIS CENTRE BASINGSTOKE ********


	     The RDC has completed its investigation on your system.

			  PLEASE SWITCH BACK TO LOCAL.

	The results of our diagnosis will be sent immediately to your local
	Digital office electronically.

	Should you wish to contact us again please phone us on Freephone 3187
	or 0256 57122.

	Please assist us in future calls by having the system in remote at
	the time you phone Basingstoke. (Remote User if system running.) The
	specialist would also like the field password and modem number at
	this time.

                We are pee'd off with sectretaries ringing us who don't even
	know which system is down, comms specialists who don't know where the
	modem is, and systems staff who can't get us logged in. The matter is
	not helped by excessive line noise from your prehistoric modem and
	the dismal way your VCS is set up.

	Thankyou for calling the RDC.

    I seem to remember the regionlisation ideas forum, came up with
    the idea that a front-end desk could do the dialling in and closing
    of calls, to eliminate the need for back-up groups to do this?
    Also with the advent of SDD and more electronic notifying of calls
    and new modems, may also eliminate some of the problems mentioned
    by Alan.

	Switching the Remote Services Console to one of the remote positions
	should  cause DTR (Data Terminal  Ready) to  illuminate on the modem.
	The remote connection set-up can be checked by manually dialling the
	RDC modem on your site from another  phone and  ensuring the carrier
	can be heard.

	Thankyou for calling the RDC.
