KEYSET USER FEATURES
The following options are available if you have a display keyset. They
require setup by the System Administrator.
Message Waiting Lights
When a new message is left in your mailbox, the voice mail message light
on your keyset will flash. Press this flashing key and follow the prompts to
retrieve messages. This key may be pressed at any time to call your voice
mailbox.
Answer Machine Emulation
If you have an Answer Machine Emulation key programmed on your keyset,
you can use it to monitor calls going to your voice mail, and optionally
answer them. The operation of this feature is similar to screening a call on a
home answering machine.
Your keyset must be set to forward on no answer to voice mail. After ringing
your station the caller will be connected to your voice mail and hear your
personal greeting before leaving a message. During this time you will be
monitoring the connection between the caller and your voice mail box. At
this time you will only be monitoring the call, you can not talk to the other
party until you answer. You may pick up the call at any time or ignore it.
To activate this feature press the AME key. It will light and the feature is set.
Press again to turn off. If this key is pressed while a station is ringing (dur-
ing forward no answer), the feature will be turned on for the current call only.
While the caller is leaving a message or ringing you may:
■
Press [#] to immediately put the caller in your voice mailbox and mon-
itor it.
■
Press [
✱
] to immediately disconnect your station. The caller continues
to leave a message normally.
■
Pick up the handset and monitor privately.
■
Press ANS / RLS to answer the call (using the handset or speaker).
AME Password
If your keyset has AME PASSWORD (MMC 110) set to YES, you must enter
your station password to listen to messages being left. This will prevent
unauthorized people from listening to messages being left for you.

PERSONAL ADMINISTRATION SETTINGS
This menu allows you to make changes, that are rarely changed. Use these
when you initially set up your mailbox. You probably will not need them after
that.

Press [1]. The current password will be played and you will have the

■
From the Main Mailbox Menu press [#].
■
Press [3]. The current Directory Name will be played as a string of
digits that are equal to your name spelled out on your telephone
