This function allows the user to set or clear an absent message for display on their phone. When set, the absent message
is also displayed on other extensions when they call the user.
· If an extension already has a button set to this function, creating another button with this function will
automatically clear the setting from the existing button.
· This function is only supported on a button that includes an LEDs/LCD. It will indicate when the function is on.
· If the user has this feature enabled, removing this button will turn the feature off.

pressed, pressing the Auto Dial - Intercom button of another user will display that users current absent
message setting (alternately select Insp and dial the user's extension number).
