Line Ringing

This feature determines how each outside line or pool assigned to an extension rings. You can
specify Immediate Ring, Delayed Ring (telephone rings after a 20-second delay), or No Ring. The
factory setting for line buttons is Immediate Ring; the factory setting for pool buttons is No Ring.
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 an operator answers
all calls, or for telephones with no regular users, such as those in conference rooms.
Immediate Ring is the factory setting for lines; No Ring is the factory setting for pools.

Considerations

System telephone users see the light patterns for the lines assigned to their extensions even if
Line Ringing is set to Delayed Ring or No Ring. Light patterns do not appear for incoming
calls on pool buttons that are set to No Ring.
If a line at an extension is set to No Ring, you must manually select the line to answer a call.
If a line is set to No Ring, Call Screening (F25) cannot be used.
Users automatically receive Caller ID information when calls ring at the extension.
If an extension receives a call on a T1 line with Direct Inward Dialing (DID), the incoming call
will ring immediately at the extension. The Line Ringing setting is ignored.
