Line Configuration/Type While Line 1 must be shared at all stations, Lines 2, 3 or 4 may be unconnected, common, or may be connected to private lines. Common Lines Shared This is the factory setting for all lines. This setting assumes that the phone number is connected to the same telephone line position at all stations.
Ringer Configuration The ringers for each outside line are controlled individually at each telephone. There are three possible settings for each line ringer: Ringer On • The line will ring normally. Delayed Ring • The line will start ringing after the first 20 seconds. This is useful if all phones are answered at a central location.
