Modern phone systems, including models built by Avaya, include a digital clock that serves several purposes. The current time typically appears on the phone display, so that users can check it at a glance. Some phones also use the time to mark when a call is missed or a voicemail is received. After a power outage or a change, such as Daylight Saving Time, you can manually update the time using the menu system of your Avaya phone.
