Send/Remove Message
The Send/Remove Message feature toggles between sending
and removing operator messages. Use the
Message Status
button to determine if an operator message is currently
present.
Press the programmed button labeled Send/Remove
Message
to toggle another extension’s message light or
leave a message on a display telephone.
When you send a message to an extension with an MLX
display telephone, it turns on the message light and delivers
the message
ATT OPERATR or your name, if programmed.
The message also shows the date and time and your
extension number.
When you send a message to an extension with an analog
multiline display telephone, it turns on the message light and
delivers the message Call OPERATR or your name, and
shows the date and time of the message.
The
Send/Remove Message button may also turn off a co-
worker’s message light, if the only message was from an
operator, and cancel the operator message delivered to a
display telephone. If you have a MERLIN II System Display
Console, you can make sure you do not turn off a message
light that was turned on by another operator by using the
Message Status button. To check the status of a co-worker’s
message light, press the
Message Status button. If the
green light next to that person’s DSS button is on, then he or
she has an operator message and his or her message light is
