Message Waiting - Panasonic KX-TD816NE Features Manual

Message Waiting

Description
The system supports the ability to inform the called party of a message waiting. The user, with
a MESSAGE button, knows there is a message if the LED of the MESSAGE button is lit red.
Even if the button is not provided nor assigned, the called party hears special dial tone, when
he / she goes off-hook. Pressing the lit MESSAGE button also means to call back the extension
that left the message or listen to the messages which are stored in the mailbox of the Voice
Processing System.
Conditions
• For the proprietary telephone which is provided with no MESSAGE button, a flexible CO
button can be assigned as the MESSAGE button either by System or Station Programming.
• Canceling the message can be performed from the extension setting it or from the extension
receiving it.
• The system supports a maximum of 128 simultaneous messages.
• Messages are always left on the original extension. It is not sent to a Call Forwarding or
Station Hunting destination.
• A single line telephone user will hear the ring tone as a notification, if he / she receives a
message. It is programmable to set the interval of a ring tone by System Programming.
