Voice messaging
This telephone will respond to voice messaging systems on many PABX types,
giving a visual signal of a message waiting. Your telephone manager will be
aware of which system is relevant to your organisation and will adjust or advise
you on the adjustment of your telephone accordingly.
This adjustment is carried out by means of a switch, labelled N/S2/S1, located
next to the recall switch, mentioned above.
As supplied, the telephone is set to the N (normal) position. Under no
circumstances should this Voice messaging switch (Figure 4) be set at the S1
or S2 without the approval of your telecoms manager. In either of the S positions,
the telephone must NOT be connected directly the public network.
(Technical note : S1 and S2 are for reverse polarity messaging systems. With
such a system in use, if the telephone does not respond in the S1 position, switch
it to the S2 position and it should then respond.
Some PABX’s require a certain level of software and/or hardware within the
switch. If your telephone appears not to work, make sure that you have the
correct software/hardware installed.
