Voice Mail, Pages,
and Text Messages
Depending on your service provider, your phone has a number of messaging features
such as voice mail, paging, and text messaging. Messages are ways callers can contact
you when you do not answer the phone. You must turn your phone on to receive
messages. Also, the type of message services available to you depends on your service
provider. Contact your Terminal Administrator for more information.

Types of Messages
The following types of messages are supported by the QSec-2700 phone:
Voice mail.
With the voice mail feature, calls automatically go to voice mail when you do
not answer the phone. When you receive a voice message, the voice mail system sends
a notification to your phone. You must call your voice mail service to hear the message,
since it is stored on your service provider’s system and not on your phone. You can also
view information about the voice mail before retrieving the message.
Pages.
When a caller enters a number into your voice mail instead of a voice message, it
appears on your phone as a numeric page.
Text messages.
Callers can also send preset text messages. If you have e-mail service
for your phone, e-mail may appear as a text message. You can view pages and text
messages on your phone’s screen.
