Messaging

Posting Messages

A posted message appears on the display of any inside caller who tries to reach you as long as that person has a display phone. (You also see the message posted at your own phone as a reminder.) There may be as many as 20 messages available to you for posting. Message 1 is always DO NOT DISTURB*; the others may include such choices as: OUT TO LUNCH, OUT SICK, IN A MEETING, depending on how your system manager has programmed them.

To post a message:

1.Press the Menu button.

2.Select Posted Msg [Post].

3.Select the message you want to post. Depending upon your phone, you can choose Next, Prev, or press the More button to see more messages.

4.Select Post.

5.Press the Home button.

To cancel a posted message:

1.Press the Menu button.

2.Select Posted Msg [Post].

3.Select Cancel [Cancl].

4.Press the Home button.

*If you use the Do Not Disturb feature (p. 15), the appropriate message is posted. When you turn off the Do Not Disturb feature, the posted message is canceled too. However, posting or canceling the message does not activate or deactivate the feature.

Signaling & Notify

To program:

See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 20.

Signaling. Program a button that will cause a co-worker’s phone to beep. The other person can then call you in response to the beep. You must program a different line button for each extension you wish to contact. To beep the recipient’s phone, just press the button, and the other phone beeps for as long as you hold down the button. A programmed Signaling button also acts as an Auto Dial button (see p. 11). To dial the extension, lift the handset or press the Speaker button; then press the Signaling button.

Notify. This feature simply lights a line button on the recipient’s phone, providing a silent message light that alerts the other party to call you. To use this feature, you must program a Notify Send button (labeled, for example, Notify Mary) on your phone and the recipient must program a Notify Receive button (labeled, for example, Call Jim) on his or her phone. Communication is one-way only, and buttons must be programmed for each extension you notify.
