NOTE:
In Release 2.0 and later systems, when someone uses the Return Call
feature for a voice messaging system, a call is returned to the voice
messaging system, not to the specific VMI extension that sent the
message-waiting code.
Display telephones show messages in reverse order of when they were received;
the most recent message is displayed first. Each message is identified on the
display as described in Table 28
.
Table 28. Message-Waiting Display Identifiers
The type of message indicated does not allow a calling group message-waiting
receiver to distinguish between a message left for the calling group and a fax or
personal message.
Multiline telephone users with no display cannot use programmed message
buttons or feature codes to answer messages. The Message LED is usually
turned off by an operator. However, an analog multiline telephone user (excluding
those with BIS-34 telephones) can turn off the Message LED by pressing the
associated Message button. Users of BIS-34 telephones, MLX-5, or MLX-10
nondisplay telephones can turn off the LED by pressing the Feature button and
dialing
. Check with message sources (operator, fax, voice messaging) before
turning off the LED.
Fax Message-Waiting Receivers 28
The Fax Message-Waiting feature notifies designated extensions of the arrival of
fax transmissions. Up to four extensions can be programmed to receive a
message-waiting indication when a fax transmission is received on a specific fax
machine. The Message LED goes on when the fax message threshold is
exceeded. The fax message threshold is the length of time (0–30 seconds) before
the system assumes that a fax has arrived.
