Description
Ringing Options refers collectively to three options that determine how users'
telephones ring when they receive a call: Ring Timing options, Abbreviated Ring
options, and Personalized Ringing options. These options are programmed for
each extension through extension programming or centralized telephone
programming, using the display or programming codes. In addition, the system
uses distinctive ringing patterns to identify various call types to the telephone
user.
Ring Timing Options
Ring Timing options control how soon a telephone rings, or whether it rings at all
when a call arrives. Line buttons on each extension can be programmed so that
calls ring as follows:
Immediate Ring (factory setting). The telephone rings as soon as a call
arrives.
Delay Ring. Provides a delay before the telephone rings. The length of
the delay depends on the type of button and the coverage arrangement:
On outside line, SA (including Shared SA), and ICOM buttons
programmed for Delay Ring, the delay is fixed at two rings and cannot
be changed.
