# Sending the Number of Unplayed Messages

1. Perform the following steps to configure the server to send the number of unplayed messages through the RS-232 interface after the directory number in a message light-on request:

2. Reach the NuPoint Voice Configuration Offline Menu:

   From the Main Menu, select (S) System Maintenance, (R) Reconfiguration, (R) Reconfigure System, and then (G) Offline Menu.

   From the Main Menu, select (S) System Maintenance, (R) Reconfiguration, (R) Reconfigure System,(G) Offline Menu, and then (M)RS232 Application Only.

5. Request that the number of unplayed messages be sent by selecting (U) Unplayed Number Sent?

   When the prompt Enter "Y" to send # of unplayed messages after DN = appears, enter

   - Y to send the number of unplayed messages

   - N to not send this information

6. Save the parameter settings by exiting to the Main Menu.
