MWI always on
« on: March 03, 2010, 01:45:36 PM »
Hey Everyone,

Has anyone had this? I am getting reports from users that the MWI ligts are staying on even when the users do not have any messages. I am not really sure where to begin. I am using a 3300 4.0 or should I say MCD 4.0 with the embedded voicemail. It is a CX controller.

All the phones are 5330s. Just a simple setup. No alarms, no warnings, nothing out of the ordinary. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Carlos

Do this first:   
With the handset down, press the msg button.   then press the read messages button.   It should show you what left the message.   If someone other than the VM light the light, beat them.

If the message came from VM, you may have a port that is not in your vm hunt group.   Be sure all VM ports are in your VM hunt group.   If yes, call each of the ports to be sure they all answer.

I forgot a step.
Press the Call Me Back Key.
Just be sure the phone is on hook when you do it.

the easiest way to clear is for them to complete the callback. So as Ralph says press the msg key and then it displays 'callback' press the yes softkey and it will display the number that set the callback press call and it will clear once the other party answers

Forgot to mention: to erase the call back message, the COS of the phone must allow it.

I was going to post my exported COS that is assigned to those phones, but it just looked like crap when I pasted in the post.

I did not find the COS setting relating to that. I am running 4.0 on that system. One thing I did not mention, was that the ext were moved to this system from another 3300 system running a 9.x release. We used EntMan/OpsMan to move them after setting up the controller.

The actual COS option is "Multiline Set Voicemail Callback message erasure allowed"  Turn it to yes and then you will be able to delete the message light from the phone.

Awesome, that was it. Thanks a gazillion Ralph. You do not know how crazy I was going trying to find that darm COS setting. After staring at them for a while things just start to get blurry!

It would be awesome if you could tag a discussion with something to indicate that the question was actually answered. I know it would save me digging thru the forums looking thru just questions without answers. I always try to dig thru the forums to find stuff before I post a question. I know how annoying it can be to answer the same question over and over again...

Here's a fun one.
Just today I had a customer that had a MWI key on her phone for the mailbox of the main number.
Somehow she managed to light the light from her phone.   Now the light is on, when she presses it, it trys to ring her own phone but since she is on the phone (because she pressed the MWI button) she gets a busy tone.   She can't clear the light.
Had to send a tech to site to resolve.  The extn for the MWI turned out to be an analog line that existed only so that we could have a MWI key.  Had the tech put his butt set on it and call the other phone.  Light goes out because they talked. 
Such fun but another example of some of the weird things you can see with MWI's.

And since I'm thinking about it.
Had a phone with a light on that wouldn't go out.   Tech replaced the phone, deleted and recreated the phone but couldn't turn it out.   

If you see something like this, try the simple thing first: dial the msg wtg on code + the extension number of the phone.  Then dial the msg wtg off code + the extn of the phone.  Light goes out.  Like magic.
