system extension number).
Related Features
For instructions on turning off the message light, see ‘‘Message Light Off
(F10XX)’’ on page 5-190.
You may be able to use this feature to signal someone at a doorphone
extension. See ‘‘Doorphone Extension (#604 and #605)’’ on page 5-124.
Considerations
This feature turns on the message light on system phones and standard
phones that have message lights. (See ‘‘Standard Telephones’’ on page
1-16 for a list of standard phones that have message lights.)
For message-waiting capability, standard phones with LED-compatible
message-waiting lights must be connected to a PARTNER ACS processor
or 308EC module, or to an R3.0 or later 206 module in a system equipped
with a PARTNER ACS processor module.
On a standard phone, the message light
flashes
(only when the phone is
idle) to indicate that the extension has received a message.
Do not use this feature for an extension that is covered by the voice
messaging system. The voice messaging system automatically turns on
the message light at a subscriber’s extension when a message is left in the
mailbox.
If you use this feature to signal someone at a doorphone extension, you
must use Message Light Off to turn the light off.
You can program a Message Light On button on a system phone to turn the
message light on at a specific extension with one touch.
