Set number of rings

You can set your answering system to
answer calls at least two rings earlier than
your voicemail service. For example,
if your voicemail service answers after
six rings, set your answering system to
answer after four rings. Thus, if you are on
a call, or if the answering system is busy
recording a message and you receive
another call, the second caller can leave
a voicemail message.
