User’s Guide
user | In this manual, the term “user” is used to describe someone who has been |
| assigned an account on the system by the system administrator (i.e., someone |
| who has been assigned a password, an extension number, a voice mailbox, etc.). |
| A particular user is identified by the system via his secret password. |
VMWI | Visual Mail Waiting Indicator, the light on compatible telephones that indicates if |
| there is unread voice mail. The VMWI standard for voice mail lights is also |
| called the FSK technique (see the FSK definition in this glossary), and refers to a |
| signalling technique for controlling the voice mail light with low speed modem- |
| like tones. Telephones that are caller ID compatible, that have a voice mail indi- |
| cator, are almost universally VMWI compatible, since both signalling techniques |
| are in the same Bellcore standard. |
