Feature Reference 555-661-110
Features
Messaging
Posting a message does not prevent the telephone from ringing.
Message Waiting does not work for off-premises telephones.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), messaging features do
not work across a private network. They only work for extensions connected to the
same local system.
Telephone Differences
Direct-Line Consoles
The Send/Remove Message feature is an operator-only feature used by a DLC
operator to turn on the Message LED to indicate a message waiting. For
telephones without a display, Send/Remove Message is the only way the
Message LED can be turned on and off by operators.
A Send/Remove Message button is factory-assigned to an MLX-28D used as a
DLC. On a system with 29 or fewer lines, Alarm, Night Service, and Send/Remove
Message are assigned by default to analog DLCs on buttons 32 through 34. On a
system with more than 29 lines, Alarm, Night Service, and Send/Remove
Message are not assigned to a DLC; instead lines 30 through 32 are. The first 18
lines on an MLX DLC are always factory-set as personal lines.
Queued Call Consoles
A Queued Call Console (QCC) operator can use Leave Message only by
selecting the feature from the display. A QCC operator cannot cancel a sent
message. A Send/Remove Message button is programmed as a fixed feature on
a QCC.
Other Multiline Telephones
The 5-button analog multiline telephone (no longer available) has neither a
Message LED nor a Message button.
MDC 9000 and MDW 9000 telephones cannot receive Leave Message or Posted
Message messages. They can receive operator (Send/Remove Message) and
voice mail message notification. When the telephone is turned on,
the display.
Single-Line Telephones
Single-line telephone users cannot post a message.
To use the Leave Message feature while listening to ringback or the busy tone on
a single-line telephone, dial
extension, lift the handset (the telephone must connect to an SA or ICOM button),
then dial
. To use Leave Message without calling the
and the person's extension number.
