Audio and text message broadcast
The Avaya 1140 IP Deskphone can display special messages in the
display area of your telephone, and can play special audio messages
through the speaker. Your administrator broadcasts these messages,
which can be used to inform you of events like company news, meeting
reminders, and weather bulletins. The message can be preceded by an
audio alert (a series of beeps).
The Avaya 1140 IP Deskphone supports the following special messages:
• text: a single line of text displays. If the message is too long for the
display, the message is truncated, you see an ellipsis and you cannot
see the rest of the message.
• display: content in the form of a WML web page is displayed on a
WML browser on the IP deskphone
• audio: an audio message streams to the telephone
When an audio message starts, the Interrupt Screen displays. While the
audio message plays, you can switch to your handset or headset to listen
to the message. Depending on the priority of the message, the message
can barge-in during an active telephone call, during an incoming call alert,
or when another message is playing.
You can also cancel the audio using the following methods:
• if listening on the speaker, pressing the Handsfree key
