know your OpenStage phone"
fully before performing any of the steps de-
scribed here on your phone.

Answering calls

Your OpenStage phone rings with the tone signal set
when an incoming call is received.
• When you receive an internal call, your telephone
rings once every four seconds (single-tone se-
quence).
• When you receive an external call, your telephone
rings twice in rapid succession every four seconds
(dual-tone sequence).
• When you receive a call from the entrance tele-
phone, your telephone rings three times in rapid
succession every four seconds (triple-tone se-
quence).
• If a call is waiting, you hear a short tone (beep) every
six seconds.
Your service personnel can adjust the ring ca-
dence for external and internal calls for you.
In other words, different ring cadences can be
set for different internal callers.
