Installation and Maintenance Guide
• Do not choose things related to your organization, such as
its telephone number.
Setting the time and
date
The time and date must be set on the Meridian 1 PBX and on
Meridian Mail.
To set the time and date, follow these steps.
Configuring the
telephone sets
You must configure each of the telephone sets that are to have
access to Meridian Mail so that FDN, HUNT, or a KEY value
points to the Voice Messaging DN.
You can configure each telephone individually or assign them to
one of the models that are predefined on every Option 11 PBX.
Refer to the Option 11 Administration Guide, “How to activate
telephones.”
Setting the on-switch
dialing restrictions
After the initial software installation, Meridian Mail starts up
with on-switch dialing completely restricted. This means that
none of your users can dial Meridian Mail, nor will Meridian
Mail answer their phone.
Step Action
1 Log on to the Meridian 1 PBX and set the PBX’s time and
date. (Refer to “Setting the time and date on the switch”
on page 4-3.)
2 Log on to Meridian Mail.
You are prompted to enter the time and date.
3 Enter the time and date in the indicated format and press
<Return>.
