# Test DTMF-to-PBX MWI Configuration

LEAVE VISIBLE TO THE WEB CONSOLE

Create at least one mailbox with the DTMF-to-PBX message waiting type that is appropriate for your server. To test the message waiting indicators, choose the Lights Test option from the server maintenance console, and select the proper message waiting type.

The following procedure describes how to test the MWI configuration:

1. From the Main Menu, select (S) System Maintenance, and then (O) Additional Options.

2. Select (L) Lights Test to start the Lights Test and then enter the number of the test extension that has a mailbox configured for DTMF-to-PBX MWI (MWI type 3).

3. At the Light off/on/existing value (0/1/2): prompt, enter 0 to turn the light off (to clear any existing indicator on the test extension).

4. At the Message waiting type prompt, enter 3 for DTMF-to-PBX. When prompted for mailbox number, enter the number of the test mailbox you used in step 3.

5. At the Light off/on/existing value (0/1/2): prompt, enter 1 to turn the light on. The system dials the message waiting code to light the MWI lamp on the test extension. Check the indicator on the test extension.

Note: The light off/on/existing value field is interpreted as 0 for off, 1 for on and 2 to send the existing value for the mailbox (useful if you want to refresh the message waiting lamps).
