Ringing Options Feature

Considerations and Constraints

Transfer returns ring repeatedly until answered, regardless of the Abbreviated Ring setting for the telephone.

When one of the eight personalized ringing patterns is selected, through either extension programming or centralized telephone programming, the person programming the option hears the ring selected. A 4412D+, 4424D+, 4424LD+, or MLX display telephone user must select Enter from the display to confirm and store the selection. After choosing Enter, the user again hears the selected ring.

The personalized ringing pattern selected for each extension is not shown on system programming reports.

Delay Ring is especially useful on a Cover button because it gives the sender a chance to answer before the call rings at the receiver's telephone. No Ring is appropriate for users who do not usually answer outside calls. To answer a call when a telephone is programmed not to ring, simply press the line button with the flashing green LED.

While using programming codes or display selections to program Ring Timing options for one line, press a line to which these options apply--any line button with an outside line or any SA or ICOM button. If you press any other type of button, an error tone sounds; at a display telephone, you also see an error message. While programming Ring Timing options for all outside lines, you can press any line button, not necessarily an outside line button
