NBX Tones
As you use your 3Com Telephone to receive voice mail and use the
feature codes on the NBX system, you hear these tones:
■
Dial Tone
— When you lift the receiver to place a call or begin using
one of the features, you hear the normal
Dial Tone (except for the
circumstance described in the next bulleted item).
■
New Messages Dial Tone
— When your voice mailbox has either
new or unsaved messages and you pick up your handset, you hear the
New Messages Dial Tone (a repeated short tone, also called the
“stutter” tone) until you delete or save every message. Your
administrator can turn the New Messages Dial Tone on or off.
■
Feature Entry Tone
— When you lift the handset and press the
Feature
button
to begin using one of the features, you hear the
Feature Entry Tone, which is a steady sound at a lower pitch than the
normal dial tone. You must enter data, for instance a feature code
number, your password, or an extension, as specified in
Table 6
.
■
Confirmation Tone
— After certain steps, as when you add a party
to a conference call, you hear a short Confirmation Tone or “beep,”
which confirms that you have completed the action.
■
Error Tone
— You hear the “fast busy” tone, also called the
“congestion” tone, when no circuits are available. In addition, you
hear the Error Tone if you make an error such as trying to enter an
unsupported feature code, an invalid extension, or an invalid
password. Hang up and start the feature code sequence again.
■
Feature Active
Tone
—
Example:
You activate one of the
“persistent” features, for instance, you lock your telephone, and then
hang up. The next time that you remove the handset from the
charging unit, you hear the Feature Active Tone. This pair of tones, a
sound followed by a higher sound, is repeated to remind you that you
have enabled one of these features:
■
Caller ID Restriction — All
■
Do Not Disturb
■
Forward All Calls to Voice Mail (that is, to your call coverage point)
■
Lock or Unlock Your Telephone
■
Call Forward All
■
Call Forward Busy
■
Call Forward No Answer
