Direct Extension Dial Delay (#112)
Description
This System Programming procedure specifies the number of times (0–9) an
incoming call should ring before it is answered by the system.
Related Features
Direct Extension Dial affects incoming calls only on lines identified using
Direct Extension Dial Lines (#205).
You must program a button on the system display phone at extension 10 to
turn Direct Extension Dial on and off. Use Direct Extension Dial Button
(#113) to program the button.
You must use Direct Extension Dial Record/Playback to record a message
to prompt callers to dial an extension number or Hunt Group number after
the system answers an outside call.
Considerations
This feature works independently of Line Ringing, which determines how an
outside call rings at the extension—immediately, after a 20 second delay, or not
at all. Direct Extension Dial Delay specifies the number of rings a caller hears
before the system answers the call.
Valid Entries
0–9 (0 rings = answered immediately)
