SNAPCOMM USER GUIDE Powered by ConnectMevoice INTRODUCTION Welcome to SnapComm phone system. You have just subscribed to the most powerful Hosted Internet Phone and unified messaging service on the market today. Unlike other services available which may offer just a few of our features, the SnapComm system serves as your total office phone system. YOUR PHONE NUMBER AND ACCESS CODE Your Snap Fitness Digit Phone Service comes with a main phone number (your Snap Fitness Digital Voice number), along with separate local phone numbers which are directly connected to your Internet Phones. You will receive your Main phone number and administrator access code by e-mail along with your order confirmation. If you are going to be retaining your current phone number, you may use the assigned number temporarily while your service is setup and provisioned. We will then provide you with instructions to have your current phone number moved to the SnapComm system. Your Internet Phone (IP Phone) or Adapter Within 5 business days, you will receive the Internet phone devices (Internet Phone Adapters, or Internet Telephones).
