Message

Visual Indication/Cause/Resolution

 

 

Extension

VISUAL INDICATION: If the extension is currently being used and a first

in Use

registration attempt is made, the Message Waiting indicators at the top of

 

telephone and left middle of the faceplate display a broken flutter

 

(alternating 50 milliseconds on, 50 milliseconds off for 500 milliseconds

 

followed by 500 milliseconds off) five times, then flash continuously,

 

awaiting user entry. Making a second registration attempt using the same

 

extension causes the Message Waiting indicators to display a continuous

 

broken flutter, alternating 50 milliseconds on, 50 milliseconds off for 500

 

milliseconds followed by 500 milliseconds off. In addition, Call Appearance

 

Line b’s LED flashes continuously until either the “*” or “#” button is

 

pressed.

 

CAUSE: The PBX detects an extension conflict with an existing set or

 

Softphone.

 

RESOLUTION: You can force the current telephone to register, and

 

thereby disconnect the other user, by pressing #. The 4600 Series IP

 

Telephone prompts you again for the extension and password. If you enter

 

the same extension and password, you must confirm that you want to

 

unregister the original user. Press # to unregister the original user and

 

register the current telephone. Then press * to reset the telephone and

 

enter a different extension and password. If no action is taken within 20

 

minutes, the telephone attempts re-registration and repeats the process

 

until you intervene or power is lost.

and left middle of faceplate display a broken flutter for a total of 5 cycles

 

(with one cycle being alternating 50 milliseconds on, 50 milliseconds off for

 

500 milliseconds followed by 500 milliseconds off), then flash continuously,

 

awaiting user entry.

 

CAUSE: The PBX does not recognize the password entered.
