Nortel Networks 6.1 Sending messages using the display, Using Page with external paging equipment

132 / Communicating in the office

Using Page with external paging equipment

When you make a page that uses external paging equipment (external page or combined page), the Long Tones feature is automatically activated for the external paging system only. This allows you to control optional equipment with the Long Tones feature.

Sending messages using the display

The Messages feature allows you to leave a message on the display of another Norstar telephone, and indicates if you have any messages waiting. The Messages feature uses a message waiting list to keep a record of your internal messages and your (external) voice mail messages (if you subscribe to a voice message service with visual message waiting indication).

Sending a message

You can leave a message on the display of another telephone in your￿⁄ Norstar system. You can send up to four messages to different telephones, including your voice message center.

If your telephone is a direct-dial telephone or a central answering position (CAP), you can send up to 30 messages.

If your reply to a message is forwarded or is answered at another telephone using the Call Pickup feature, the message remains on your telephone until you cancel it or successfully contact the telephone that sent the message.
