Option

Description

1Enable message notification (if off) or disable message notification (if on).

2Hear current notification settings.

3Change the notification phone number (the number of your phone or pager).

Cisco Unity Express dials this number to send notification of newly-received voice-mail messages. See the “Changing the Notification Phone Number” section on page 14.

4Listen to the current notification schedule. Configure the time of day you want to receive notifications; for example, you may want to turn off notifications during the evening. See the “Configuring the Notification Schedule” section on page 15.

5Change notification preferences (have notifications sent for all messages, or urgent messages only). See the “Changing Notification Preferences” section on page 18.

Changing the Notification Phone Number

Step 1 After pressing 3 in the Message Notification Menu to change the notification phone number, the system tells you if a phone number is currently assigned to the device (phone or pager).

If a phone number is already assigned, perform one of the following:

Press * to keep the current number.

Enter the new number and press #.

If a phone number is not yet assigned, enter the new number and press #.

Note You can only enter digits 1 to 9. You cannot enter pauses, breaks, or other special variables in the phone number.

Step 2 After entering the number:

If you entered a new number that is permitted by the voice-mail system, the system repeats the number.

If you entered a number that is not permitted by the system (such as a toll number), you receive an error message.

Press * to keep the number, or if you want a new number, enter it and press #.

Step 3 Press * to continue. The system tells you if extra digits are set. Extra digits are numbers that are sent by Cisco Unity Express after the phone or pager has answered its notification call. For example, you might use extra digits to reach a certain extension after dialing a main access number. To set extra digits, see the “Setting Extra Digits” section on page 15. To exit, press *.
