Delayed Ringing 73

 

 

Delayed Ringing

(NBX Business Telephones only) The Delayed Ringing feature prevents

 

a telephone on a shared line from ringing on a specific telephone until

 

the incoming call rings on another telephone a specified number of times

 

first.

 

Example:

 

A telephone extension is programmed to appear on a manager’s

 

telephone and on the assistant’s telephone. When a call comes in to

 

the manager on that extension, the assistant’s telephone rings a

 

specified number of times (typically 4 rings) before the call audibly

 

rings on the manager’s telephone. Although incoming calls initially do

 

not ring audibly on the manager’s telephone, the line’s status light

 

flashes, allowing the manager to answer the calls if required.

 

 

Pulse Dialing

In some locations, users must dial telephone calls using pulse dialing

 

instead of tone dialing (also called Dual Tone Multi Frequency, or DTMF,

 

dialing).

Examples:

You must dial certain calls using a telephone company that supports only pulse dialing.

Your organization’s telephone service provider offers low-cost service, but that provider only has pulse dialing service.

There are three methods you can use to switch to DTMF if you are in pulse dial mode.

Using a Feature Code

To change from pulse dialing to DTMF during a call:

1Press Feature button and 891.

2Your connection is switched from pulse to tone (DTMF) for the remainder of the call. When you hang up, your phone port reverts to pulse dialing mode.

Using a Mapped Button

Your administrator can map your telephone so that you can press a single Access button to change from pulse dialing to DTMF during a call. Ask your administrator for details.
