MESSAGE WAITING
Description
This feature allows the Attendant to inform a guest that there is a
message waiting. The Message Waiting indication may take the form of
a continuously flashing lamp on the extension, or the extension may
be rung every 20 minutes with a distinctive ringing pattern (three
cycles of 3.5 ips ringing). If the extension is busy, or has Do Not
Disturb active when Message Waiting is activated, the Message Wait-
ing indication is initiated as soon as the extension becomes idle. If the
Message Waiting indication is given by a lamp, the lamp flashes (at 60
ipm). If the Message Waiting indication is given by ringing the exten-
sion, the first ring starts 10 seconds after the extension becomes idle.
The extension will ring every 20 minutes (after an off-/on-hook con-
dition if the extension was busy or had Do Not Disturb set) or until the
Message Waiting is cancelled. When the guest returns and calls the
Attendant, the MSGE WAIT lamp lights to indicate that there is a
message waiting for that extension.
