This must be my year for ECS/VM issues! I have an ECS, that I upgraded from a VS, that will not light MW lights. I installed their VS-VML on a VMAC and it is installed in slot 1 of the ECS. I made the required programming changes in the VS-VML to accommodate the ECS trunk numbering and such. Everything works fine, but no MW lights. I've changed key patterns to use a specific MBOX key (instead of 0), still nothing. I know that if you have more than one MBOX 0 key assigned to a key pattern, it can be a problem...but I've checked the key pattern (without a template) to verify this isn't the issue. The VS-VML lit the lamps last week when it was installed in the VS.
Is there a way to manually use the MW on/off code (519ext) to check the signalling/lamps? In my office ECS, if I attempt to dial 519ext, I get a busy. I thought the feature codes worked on any type of station (not just SLT). I can dial *ext and get a VM box, but can't dial 519ext to light a lamp.

Just a quick question... on the VML, did you remember to run the "Migrate VS-VML to IX-VMAC" command?

If I could curse right here, I would! Thanks so much. I totally forgot to do that. All the VMAC installs I have done the last 5-6 years were VMACs to start with... I haven't done a migration in forever and forgot that step. I sure hope it solves my problem! On my way to the customer site.....
Thanks, Keighlar!

I hope so, too! Good luck.

I thought the feature codes worked on any type of station (not just SLT). I can dial *ext and get a VM box, but can't dial 519ext to light a lamp. If you configure an analog port as a voice mail port, you can use the MWL codes. A normal SLT/FAX port can't pass these codes. Also, on your VMAC card Integration tab, be sure to change the trunk ID digits from 3 (ADIX) to 4 (ECS) and verify your mailbox ranges match your switch extension ranges for 3 or 4 digit mailboxes.
Sometimes the thoughts in my head get so bored, they go for a stroll through my mouth. This is rarely a good thing.

Well... it wasn't migration! I migrated and still had the same issue. After much consternation, it was found that one of the VM ports had somehow got prime line assigned. Once I removed that, the MW worked fine. And, FWIW... even without migrating, it seems as though everything was working. (I had already changed the trunks to 4 digit, and the stations all matched the ECS)
Thanks, Keighlar and JB for your (always!) spot-on input!
JB- is it only the MW feature codes that can't be passed by a regular station port? I'm pretty sure that I've used the 5xx codes from a digital station to activate certain features that didn't appear on a designated key.

AS far as I know, the voice mail codes and the list of the SLT only features dealing with speed dialing, through calling, etc. won't work from a digital port.
