Effects
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 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 SPKR, 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.
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 SPKR to answer an incoming call.
This setting is called IDLE preference.
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 SPKR 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.
