Differential Ring Signals

Differential Ring Signals
When multiple phones in a small area ring, it can be difficult to tell which are ringing. The MBX
IP Phone has 14 Ring Tones available for differentiating one phone's ringing from another. Four
of the tones are stored in the phone permanent memory; the remaining ten tones are in the
system memory. Four of these ten can be downloaded into the phone memory for use as the
5th to 8th Ring Tone.
To download a Ring Tone from System memory (8012 and 8024 IP Phones only):
1. Press TRANS/PGM,
2. Dial 2 for Ring Tones,
3. Dial 3 for Ring Tone download,
4. Dial the phone's memory location to receive the tone (5-8),
5. Dial 0-9 for the desired tone number; a confirmation tone is heard,
6. Press HOLD/SAVE to download.
To select a Ring Tone from phone memory:
