Audible Message Waiting
Audible Message Waiting places a stutter at the beginning of a station dial tone on
a station that has a message waiting. Audible Message Waiting is particularly
useful for visually impaired people who may not be able to see a message light.
Messages for a station can be waiting in system memory (to be accessed via
display or voice synthesizer), Property Management System (PMS), Message
Servicing Adjunct (MSA), or AUDIX. When the system loses synchronization
between telephones and message-status data, use Clear Message Waiting
Indicators to turn off message-waiting indicators.
You typically assign Audible Message Waiting on phones without
message-waiting lights, such as analog telephones.
Audible Message Waiting requires a separate software right-to-use fee. Audible
Message Waiting may not be applicable in countries that restrict the
characteristics of dial tones provided to users.
