Digital Display Module

Display

A vacuum-fluorescent 40-character alphanumeric display that presents numerical digits, upper- case and lowercase letters, and punctuation marks.

On/Off Switch

The On/Off switch turns the module on and off. The associated green status light goes on when the module is on and is dark when the module is off.

Assignable Function Buttons

Seven additional buttons with associated green status lights. The System Manager assigns these buttons to display the control functions.

Display Functions

The following display functions are available on buttons (the actual labeling on some buttons is shortened). If more than seven buttons are required, the additional buttons may be assigned on the associated voice terminal.

Normal Mode—used to place the display in the Normal mode. In this mode, the display provides call-related information automatically.

Inspect Mode—used to place the display in the Inspect mode to permit the user to see caller identification on an incoming or held call while active on another call.

Message Retrieval—used to place the display in the Message Retrieval mode. This mode is used to retrieve messages for the voice terminal on which the module is mounted.

Coverage Message Retrieval—used to place the display in the Coverage Message Retrieval mode. This mode is used by coverage agents to retrieve messages for other terminals.

Next—used in Message Retrieval mode to step from one message to the next; also used in the Integrated Directory feature to display the next name (except on System 85 or DEFINITY G2).

Delete Message—used in Message Retrieval mode to delete messages.

Make Call—used in Message Retrieval mode to automatically initiate a call to the caller identified by the last displayed message (for internal calls only); also used to automati- cally call internal extension numbers displayed by the Integrated Directory feature (except on System 85 or DEFINITY G2).

Integrated Directory (except on System 85 or DEFINITY G2)—used to place the display in the Integrated Directory mode. In this mode, the system directory can be searched by entering the desired name with the dial pad, and names with their corresponding exten- sion numbers will be displayed.
