Message Waiting switch
Your Converse 1400 is preset to
work with BT’s 1571 on normal
exchange lines. If your telephone is
connected to a switchboard you
may need to change the switch
setting on the base of the phone.
Try it on setting 1571, then, if it
doesn’t work, try the other
settings.
Typically, position MW1 is for an
ISDX type switch, but if the light
stays on permanently use MW2.
Typically, position MW3 is for an
SX 2000 type switch.
