Ring Select, Toll Saver and the Remote Access Code
The Ring Select is the number of times the phone rings before the system answers.
The settings are numbers 1-7, and Toll Saver. The preset ring select setting is 4.
Toll Saver sets the system to answer calls on the second ring only if you have
new messages. If no new messages have been recorded, the system will answer
on the fourth ring.
This setting can be used when you will be calling from another location to
check for messages. If you have new messages (i.e., messages you have not
listened to yet), the system will answer after two rings. If there are no new
messages, the phone will ring at least three times before the system answers.
You can then hang up after the third ring to avoid paying long distance charges.
The Remote Access Code gives you access to your messages, memos and
announcements when you call in from another location. You can use the preset
code which is 500 or you can choose a new code between 500 and 999.
