Message Waiting Indication
The VT5831 is compatible with optional voicemail service provided by some
local telephone companies. If you subscribe to this service, and you have new,
unplayed messages in your voicemail, a Visual Message Waiting Indicator
(VMWI) signal is transmitted by your local telephone company.
The VT5831 will detect a VMWI signal and activate a the Message Waiting light
on the Base and the Message Waiting light on the Handset. In addition, message
waiting will appear on the H0andset and Base displays.
After you check your messages, the Message Waiting indicators will
automatically turn off.
Please note that whenver new, unplayed messages are stored in your voicemail,
the local Telephone Company will continue to send a VMWI signal.
