Setting Ringers On/Delayed/Off
The ringers for each outside line are controlled
individually at each telephone. There are three
possible settings for each line ringer:
RINGER ON: The line will ring normally.
DELAYED RING: The line will start ringing after
the first 20 seconds. This is useful for an office
where a secretary usually answers the phone.
RINGER OFF: The line will not ring.
In all these cases, the line indicators will flash
normally to signal an incoming call, and you can
always answer that line, whether or not it is ring-
ing at your telephone, by pressing the corre-
sponding flashing line button.
Note: If you set a ringer ON or DELAYED, and a call comes in on that line while you are having
a conversation on another outside line, a double ring will sound every 15 seconds to alert you of
the incoming call. This feature, called “off-hook ringing”, can be turned off if you prefer. To do this,
press PROGRAM, then press the soft key under NEXT repeatedly until “Off Hook Ring” appears
in the display, along with the current setting. Press the soft key under CHANGE if you wish to
change the setting, and press PROGRAM to exit. Note that if a call comes in on one of the out-
side lines while you are engaged in an intercom call, there will never be any off hook ringing.
However the line lamps will flash normally to indicate an incoming call.
Each line ringer can be set individually.
An incoming call will flash
ORANGE at your tele-
phone...
...or RED if that line ringer
is off, delayed, your Do
Not Disturb is activated, or
another call has already
started ringing
