Lucent Technologies 4.1 User Manual

This Telephone Programming procedure determines how each outside line or
pool assigned to an extension rings. A line or pool can ring immediately, ring
with a 20 second delay, or not ring at all. Delayed Ring is useful for backup
coverage on shared lines or pools, such as for secretaries who cover each
other’s lines. No Ring is useful for all extensions except 10 when a receptionist
answers all calls, or for phones with no regular users, such as in conference
rooms.

To copy the Line Ringing settings (as well as other system settings) to other
extensions, you can use Copy Settings (#399).

Users automatically receive Caller ID information for calls that audibly alert
at the extension. (For lines or pools set to Immediate Ring, Caller ID
information is displayed after the first ring. For lines or pools set to Delayed
Ring, Caller ID information is displayed as soon as the call begins audibly
alerting. For lines or pools set to No Ring, no Caller ID information is
displayed.)

Program this feature from extension 10 or 11 only, using Centralized
Telephone Programming. Individual users cannot program this feature.

System phone users see the light patterns for the lines assigned to their
extensions even if Line Ringing is set to Delayed Ring or No Ring. Light
patterns do not appear for incoming calls on pool buttons that are set to No
Ring.

If a line at an extension is set to No Ring, a user at that extension has to
manually select the line to answer a call.
