Message

CONSIDERATIONS

PROGRAMMING

HOW TO USE

How you respond to a Message light depends on the type of voice terminal you have.

●When the light next to the Message button is lit on a voice terminal without a display, your system attendant has one or more messages for you. You must get your message(s) from him or her.

●When the Message light is lit on a display voice terminal, someone in the system has left you a message. You can use your Message button to help you check your display for messages that people have left for you. (See “Leave Word Calling.”)

The 7406 voice terminal has a Message light, but not a Message button. The 5-buttom analog voice terminal does not have a Message button nor a Message light. On these voice terminals, you can program the Message feature on a button.

On a 7406 voice terminal without an attached display, you must program both a Message button and a Delete Message button. (For information about programming a Delete Message button, see “Leave Word Calling.”) When your Message light is on, touch one of these buttons and then the other until your Message light goes off. Then call a system attendant to see if he or she has a message for you.

If you have a 5-button analog voice terminal or a 7406 display voice terminal, you may want to program a Message button. If you need a Message button with a light next to it, program it on an appropriate button.

To program a Message button for your voice terminal, label the button and proceed as follows:

1 Enter programming mode.

2 Touch the button you want to program.

3 Dial *98.

4 Leave programming mode.

To turn off the light next to Message (for voice terminals without a display):

For voice terminals with a Message button:

1 Touch Message.

The Message light goes off.

For voice terminals or basic telephones without a Message button:

1 Dial #54.

The Message light goes off.
