How You Know You Have Messages
NVM-Series lets you know you have messages as follows:
■It flashes the Message key/lamp at your phone. The Message
key/lamp flashes as long as there are new messages in your mailbox
(that is, messages that you have not started to listen to).
■You may also hear the synthesized announcement over your phone’s
speaker:
●
You have a message.
■In addition, display phones can show you the total number of mes-
sages in your mailbox.
The Message key or lamp goes out when you do the following:
■Call your mailbox from your extension, even if you do not listen to
your new messages (the lamp does not go out until you hang up). If
you exit your mailbox and there are still messages not listened to,
NVM-Series lights the key/lamp again.
■Call your mailbox from outside the company or from another exten-
sion and listen to all your new messages.
If you receive new messages while in your mailbox, NVM-Series says:
●
You have received new messages.
■NVM-Series plays this voice prompt if you dial 9 to exit your mail-
box or if you return to the Main Menu of features before exiting.
This way, you can listen to the new message before exiting. If you
do not listen to them, NVM-Series will light the Message key/lamp
after you exit to let you know there is a new message.
■If you wish, you can also have NVM-Series call you when you
receive messages (see Message Notification on page 52).
