System Parameters Call Coverage / Call Forwarding 
17
Local Cvg Subsequent Redirection/CFWD No 
Ans Interval (rings)
This field specifies:
the number of rings applied at a local coverage point before a call redirects 
to the next coverage point
the number of rings applied at the principal before a call forwards when 
Call Forwarding Busy/Don’t Answer is activated. 
Off-Net Cvg Subsequent Redirection/CFWD No 
Ans Interval (rings)
This field specifies:
the number of rings applied at an off-net coverage point before a call is 
redirected to the next coverage point
the number of rings applied at an off-net forwarded-to destination before 
the call is redirected to coverage.
NOTE:
When ringing local destinations (say in an office environment), a short 
interval often is appropriate because the intended party either is near the 
phone or not present. However, when ringing off-net locations, you cannot 
assume how near the intended party is to the phone. If the call is left at an 
off-net destination for only a short interval, the call may be redirected to the 
next destination before the intended party has any real chance of answering 
the call.
Coverage - Caller Response Interval (seconds)
The time in seconds the caller (internal caller only) has before a call redirects to 
the called party’s first coverage point. The calling party either can hang up, use 
Leave Word Calling, or press the 
GO TO COVER
 button during this time interval.
