Message Waiting Indicator (MWI)

The Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) is used in the Hi-
Path 1100 to help manage voice mail
this feature when a mailbox (internal or external) re-
ceives a new message, a signal or tone indicates that
there is a message waiting.
This indication is provided in the following manner:
• By means of a key programmed as a MWI, in the
case of system telephones.
• By means of an icon shown on the display, in the
case of system telephones or standard telephones
with Caller ID (CLIP-FSK);
The signal indication is activated when the first mes-
sage is received in the mailbox. The indication is deacti-
vated automatically by the voice mail server.

[1] When using an internal voice mail server, extensions must be pro-
grammed in the subscriber group to which voice mail was as-
signed (see Programming an extension - UCD subscriber group in
the programming manual).
When using an external voice mail server (contracted with a local
carrier), the extensions assigned to voice mail must be pro-
grammed and the service must be activated in the external MWI
group (see Programming an extension - External MWI group in the
programming manual).
[2] For system telephones without a display, the signaling must be
programmed using the HiPath 1100 System Manager application.
