3. Press the * button to terminate the procedure without clearing the values. Press the # button

Visual/Audible Alerting Procedure
Use this procedure to set or change the Alerting mode. As of software Release 2.2, all 4600
Series IP Telephones can alert a user to in coming call s aud ibly (t he defaul t) or both audibl y and
visually. Visual alert is useful in noisy environments where an audible alert might not be heard,
or to tell at a glance which of several phones is ringing.
1. While the phone is on-hook and idle, press the following sequence of keys on the
telephone’s faceplate:
Mute 2 5 3 7 8 # (Mute A L E R T #)
Note:
Note: Press the Mute button momentarily. Do not press this button while pressi ng other
keys/buttons. The 4630/4630SW IP Telephones and the 4690 IP Conference
Telephone do not have a dedicated Hold button. For all other 4600 Series IP
Telephones, pressing the Hold button instead of the Mute button also works.
All IP telephones except the 4601 display the following text left-justified at the top of the
display:
where setting corresponds the current Alert value (NV ALER T) as specified in “Chapter 4" of
the 4600 Series IP Telephone LAN Administrator Guide:
●Setting is audible-only when NVALERT = 0
●Setting is audible/visual when NVALERT = 1
Because it does not have a display, the 4601 IP Telephone’s Call Appearance Line a’s
indicator winks out the current NVALERT value 600 milliseconds on, 200 milliseconds off,
where one wink represents “0” for audible only and two winks represent “1” for audible/
visual. If the current value is zero (the default), Call Appearance Line a’s indicator flutters
five times 50 milliseconds on, 50 milliseconds off instead of winking. After the 4601
“displays” the current NVALERT value, the Message Waiting indicator at the top of the
Clearing values.
