Retrieving messages and accessing a voice mailbox
The first time you access your voice mailbox, you are prompted to assign a password, record a
greeting and record your name for the dial-by-name directory.
For the general mailboxes, there are no directory listings and you are not prompted to record a
name. If you wish to have your name in the company directory, use the mailbox associated with
its extension, as the directory is related to the extension’s mailbox. When your mailbox has
been set up, you access it through the prompt instructions.
If a new message is left in a local extension mailbox, TalkSwitch plays a stutter dial tone when
the handset is picked up (not applicable to the TS-850i). If the extension supports a frequency-
shift keying (FSK) message waiting indicator (not applicable to IP extensions), the light flashes.
The TS-80, TS-200, TS-400 and TS-600 extensions support a message waiting counter. The
display on the extension shows the number of new messages stored in the mailbox(es)
associated with that extension.
