PROBLEM
|
ACTION
|
|
Phone will not ring at all
|
If you have a broken dial tone when you pick up the handset you have a manual divert on the extension. A manual divert will not allow the telephone to ring at all before it forwards to a specified destination (voicemail or another extension). Check also that the ringer hasn't been switched off on your phone.
|
|
Broken dial tone
|
Your extension is manually diverted, and the telephone system is reminding you of this. If the divert is no longer needed dial ##9 from the extension to cancel the diversion.
|
|
After dialling any number you receive a dialling tone or number unobtainable message
|
Check the phone pulse/tone settings (switch on the phone marked P/T or Pulse/Tone). Set the switch to Tone or T for our system
|
|
Pressing the recall button and not receiving the dialling tone
|
Check the E/T (Earth/ Timebreak) button on the side or back of the telephone. Set it to Earth mode.
Try another handset in the socket to ascertain whether fault is the handset or in the socket.
|
|
No dial tone on lifting receiver
|
Try another telephone in the socket to ascertain whether fault is handset or in the socket. Also, check the handset is plugged in to the socket fully
|
Voicemail faults
The School voicemail extension is 6880 and internal users can dial 88. External users dial 020 7955 6880
The School now uses the voicemail system to answer its incoming calls. The software update means that if a user has the same mailbox number and pin number, when they or anyone dials 88 from that extension's handset, the user will go straight into the mailbox of that extension mailbox, bypassing the usual greeting. Therefore every voicemail user should have a different pin number to their mailbox number to ensure mailbox security.
Mailbox message capacity (profile): standard capacity is 25 messages
