HI All,

I'm having trouble with one particular extension of an NEC SL1000 phone not being able to take calls or ring when dialed. The phone works ok calling out & answering a trunk line but when dialed internally or having calls transferred top it, the red light does not light up for that extension & it goes directly to some sort of voicemail that's jacked up as well (not on the phone message box like a typical voicemail message). The phone also reads VRM-IMM on the display & is different than all the other extensions as they show the Day or Night mode depending on what's on/the time of day.

I hadn't had any luck finding info on this issue with other posts & the manual is unclear and doesn't show VRS-IMM anywhere.

Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm stumped.

Thanks!

The user set up a VRS-IMM message to their phone. Try dialing 616 at that station and follow the prompts to cancel/erase the feature.
 
Thank you for the response, Belevedere. I tried dialing 616 on the terminal & receive a busy signal. No prompts show up like they would when we dial 741 to setup call forwarding.
 
Check MB 11-10-20. The default code is 616 but it may have been changed. Also check MB 20-07-13 and make sure permission is allowed.
 
11-10-20 shows 616. 20-07-13 shows 0 on CLS1 thru CLS14 with CLS 15 being 1. When I change CLS1 to 1 I can enter 616 & get a menu that shows 'R:7 L:5 E:3 ?' but cannot get to any messages in this screen (I'm unsure how). Will erasing these put the phone display back to the Day pic or will it remain as VRM-IMM pic?

Thank you. When I enter 3 it shows a screen that says:

'Erase VRS MSG'
'Message No.'

It's unclear on what to enter. I try 1, 2 & even the extension number but nothing happens. If I enter too many digits it gives me a busy signal then returns to the main screen - still showing VRS-IMM.

Any ideas?

Appreciate the help!
