HOW TO USE
How you respond to a Message light depends on the type of voice terminal
you have.
● When the light next to the Message button is lit on a voice terminal
without a display, your system attendant has one or more messages for
you. You must get your message(s) from him or her.
● When the Message light is lit on a display voice terminal, someone in the
system has left you a message.
You can use your Message button to help
you check your display for messages that people have left for you. (See
“Leave Word Calling.”)
The 7406 voice terminal has a Message light, but not a Message button.
The 5-buttom analog voice terminal does not have a Message button nor a
Message light. On these voice terminals, you can program the Message
feature on a button.
On a 7406 voice terminal without an attached display, you must program
both a Message button and a Delete Message button. (For information
about programming a Delete Message button, see “Leave Word Calling.”)
When your Message light is on, touch one of these buttons and then the
other until your Message light goes off. Then call a system attendant to
see if he or she has a message for you.
If you have a 5-button analog voice terminal or a 7406 display voice terminal,
you may want to program a Message button. If you need a Message button
with a light next to it, program it on an appropriate button.
To program a Message button for your voice terminal, label the button and
proceed as follows:
1 Enter programming mode.
2 Touch the button you want to program.
3 Dial *98.
4 Leave programming mode.
To turn off the light next to Message (for voice terminals without a display):
For voice terminals with a Message button:
1 Touch Message.
The Message light goes off.
For voice terminals or basic telephones without a Message button:
1 Dial #54.
The Message light goes off.
