Signaling & Notify
To program:
See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 22.
Signaling. Program a button that will cause a co-worker's phone to beep. The other person can
then call you in response to the beep. You must program a different line button for each extension
you wish to contact. To beep the recipient's phone, just press the button, and the other phone
beeps for as long as you hold down the button. A programmed Signaling button also acts as an
Auto Dial button (see p. 12). To dial the extension, press the On/Off button; then press the
Signaling button.
Notify. This feature simply lights a line button on the recipient's phone, providing a silent
message light that alerts the other party to call you. To use this feature, you must program a Notify
Send button (labeled, for example, Notify Mary) on your phone and the recipient must program a
Notify Receive button (labeled, for example, Call Jim) on his or her phone. Communication is
one-way only, and buttons must be programmed for each extension you notify.
