# Enabling/Disabling Light-on Requests for Successive Messages

Perform the following steps to turn on or turn off message waiting light-on requests for successive messages:

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

2. If desired, duplicate the configuration by selecting (B) Duplicate Active Configuration.

   The server copies the current (active) configuration. When copying is completed, the short form of the Offline Menu appears.

   All subsequent steps in this procedure – along with any other configuration entries – affect just the copy, and take effect only after you activate the configuration.

3. Select (M) RS232 Application Only.

4. Enable or disable updates to message waiting lights by selecting (S) Suppress Updates to MWL.

   When the prompt Suppress updates of MWL (y/n) = [] ? appears, enter

   - Y to suppress updates of Message Waiting Lights

   - N to permit updates as normal.

Enabling this feature stops updates after a user accesses the mailbox without a message waiting lights status change.

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

2. You must activate the inactive configuration for the changes to take effect.
