CALLER ID FEATURES
MESSAGE LIGHT
An indicator marked NEW CALL will light up to let you know when there are new calls received.
If you have a voice mailbox service with your telephone company, another indicator marked MESSAGE will flash to alert you to dial your telephone company to check your new messages.
The MESSAGE indicator also monitors the unit’s situation. When the phone is in use, the MESSAGE indicator will be on continuously. If the indicator is flashing quickly, it means the phone is ringing. If it is not ringing and the light is flashing, the unit has experienced a power outage.
MESSAGEWAITING
This units MESSAGE WAITING DETECTION is for both FSK and Stutter Tone Systems.
IF YOUR SERVICE IS FSK:
1.If you have a voice mailbox service from the phone company, the MESSAGE indicator will flash and [MESSAGE WAITING] will appear on the display for 20 seconds when a message waiting on signal from the Central Office is received.
2.The MESSAGE indicator will go off and [MSG WAITING OFF] will appear for 20 seconds if the message waiting off signal is sent from the Central office.
IF YOU ARE IN AN AREA WHERE AN FSK SIGNAL IS NOT AVAILABLE:
1.This unit will check your line for a stutter dial tone every time you hang up or each time a call goes unanswered. The MESSAGE indicator will flash when there is a message waiting.
2.You may experience some delay in seeing the MESSAGE indicator light up even though there are messages in your mail box. This delay is due to regulatory matters and does not indicate a problem with the unit.
This unit may not be activated or deactivated under certain conditions. For example, when you retrieve your message from an outside phone (not your own telephone number), the MESSAGE indicator may not be canceled when you return home. If you experience this situation, pick up the receiver and hang up. The MESSAGE indicator will cancel.
