Setting The Ring Time; Selecting The Message Record Time - Uniden DCT 5285 Owner's Manual

Setting the ring time

The ring time setting allows you to set the number of rings the caller hears before
your answering system plays the outgoing message. You can set the ring time to
answer after two, four, or six rings. Setting "TS" (Toll Saver), the answering system
picks up after two rings if you have new messages, and after four rings if there are
none. This way, if you make a long distance call to check your messages, you can
hang up after the second ring to avoid billing charges.
