APPENDIX B
LINE PARAMETERS
When your line was installed,
choices were made on three
important switch parameters that
affect your call handling and the
LEDs associated with your lines.
Ringing Preference
The first choice, called ringing
preference, affects what happens
when you have at least one idle
Call Appearance and an incoming
call flashing on another CA.
When you pick up the handset or
press SPEAKER, the phone can
automatically connect you with
an idle CA, giving dial tone, or
with the incoming call. Your
phone will consistently pick up an
idle CA of the incoming call based
on the configuration choice
recorded with your telephone
provider. When preference is
"yes", the incoming call is
chosen.
Ringing Preference Choices
If the set is programmed at the
switch to pick the first ringing Call
Appearance, picking up the
handset connects you
immediately with the incoming
call. This preference setting is
called RING preference.
If the set is programmed to pick
the first idle Call Appearance,
picking up the handset gives you
a dial tone. In this case, you must
press the flashing green Call
Appearance button and pick up
the handset or press SPEAKER to
answer an incoming call. This
setting is called IDLE preference.
Menu Mode Effects
During Menu Mode, you can
answer any incoming call by
pressing the appropriate Call
Appearance button and picking
up the handset. If your phone
was installed with "ringing
preference" as RING, then simply
picking up the handset
automatically connects you to the
first incoming call.
If the ringing preference is IDLE,
then picking up the handset or
pressing SPEAKER connects you
to an idle line (if there is one).
You can then make an outgoing
call or press a green-flashing Call
Appearance button to pick up an
incoming call.
