Recall Timer Duration (#107)
Description
This System Programming procedure lets you change the length of the timed
signal, or switchhook flash, generated by the system Recall feature (as well as by
the Recall option used in Auto Dial and Speed Dial numbers). Recall sends this
timed signal over the phone line to the local telephone company or PBX to which
the system is connected. Typically you use the Recall feature to access a PBX,
central office, or Centrex feature, such as Call Waiting. Your local phone company
can tell you the correct setting—for most Centrex systems, the correct setting is
800 msec (or 32).
Considerations
You should change the factory setting only under two conditions:
■ If using the system Recall feature has no effect, lengthen the time.
■ If the system is connected to a PBX or Centrex system and Recall drops
calls, shorten the time.
Valid Entries
01 through 80 (25 to 2000 msec in 25 msec increments)
18 (450 msec) ✔

the Recall timer to 750 msec., press
3 0.
3. Select another procedure or exit programming mode.
4. If you are using Recall to access PBX or Centrex features, test the new
Recall Timer setting:
■ If a call is disconnected, shorten the time.
■ If the Recall signal has no effect, lengthen the time.
