When a person places an outside call on rotary lines, your system is factory-
set to wait 12 seconds before connecting the call. This Dialing Timeout
Interval ensures that the caller hears Touch-Tones rather than clicks. As a
result of this interval, people in your business may find they are being
connected to calls after the person they are calling has already answered.
You can shorten the length of time that elapses before these calls are
