Line Ringing - Lucent Technologies PARTNER Advanced Communications System Programming And Use Instructions

Line Ringing

Description
This Telephone Programming procedure determines how each outside line or pool
assigned to an extension rings. A line or pool can ring immediately, ring with a
20-second delay, or not ring at all. Delayed Ring is useful for backup coverage on
shared lines or pools, such as for secretaries who cover each other's lines. No
Ring is useful for all extensions except 10 when a receptionist answers all calls, or
for phones with no regular users, such as those in conference rooms.
