M2000 Series Meridian Digital Telephones
Message Waiting lamp key Each M2000 Series Meridian Digital Telephone
has a red triangle in the upper right-hand corner that lights brightly to indicate
a message is waiting. This LED is the primary message waiting indicator and
lets you know a message is waiting regardless of whether the telephone has a
message waiting key/lamp pair. You must have Message Waiting allowed
Class of Service. See LD 11, X11 Administration (553-3001-311).
If you do assign a message waiting key/lamp pair, there will be two
indications of a message waiting:
• the red Message Waiting triangle lights
• the LCD associated with the Message Waiting key flashes
You may assign an Autodial key that dials the message center (or voice mail
system) to avoid the double indication or have no key/lamp pair assigned to
the message center.
The Message Waiting lamp is also used to indicate security of the M2016S.
The red LED triangle lights steadily when the phone is not secure. (The phone
is not secure when the handset is off the hook, when the phone is ringing, or
whenever the handset/piezo relays are connected.) The red LED triangle
blinks when a message is waiting.
Handsfree/Mute key (M2008HF & M2616 only) Handsfree is software
assignable on the M2008HF/M2616. This allows you to talk to another party
without lifting the handset. Activate Handsfree by depressing the
Handsfree/Mute key (key 15, top left for M2616; key 6, below Program for
M2008HF) or by selecting a DN without lifting the handset. Once Handsfree
is activated, it can be deactivated by picking up the handset or by ending the
call using the Release (Rls) key. If Handsfree is not software assigned, you
can assign any other feature to the "Handsfree" key.
Note: Software Control - CLS Class of Service for M2008HF
The Class of Service feature consistent with M2616 Handsfree control allows
system administrators to enable/disable the Handsfree option on the
M2008HF (Handsfree) telephone via software. M2008HF telephones ship
from the factory with a hardware jumper enabled to allow the Handsfree
option for existing software releases.
