COLUMN 5 – LINES ASSIGNED WITH RINGING OPTIONS
List the lines (or pool code for a pool of lines, if appropriate) that you would like assigned to each extension. For each line you enter, you have the option of listing it as an immediate ringing line, a delayed ringing line, or a no ring line. The default option for lines is immediate ringing. (For pools, the default option is no ringing). NOTE: Any line not listed will be removed from that extension and will not be accessible from that extension.
NOTE: For T1 lines with Direct Inward Dialing, the ringing option is ignored, and the call rings immediately.
COLUMN 6 – CHANGE DEFAULT SETTINGS
Language: Default = English. If you wish to display messages in a different language, write in the language. This is relevant only for extensions with display phones.
Distinctive Ring: Default = Active. By default, outside, intercom, and transferred calls each have their own ringing pattern. To change the default so that all calls ring the same, write “NA” (Not Active) in this column.
Abbreviated Ringing: Default = 1 ring. When a phone is in use, a new call will ring once. The line button light will continue to flash until the call is answered.
Privacy: Default = Not Activated. By default, any user sharing a line can join calls at another extension (Privacy is Not Assigned). If all calls are to be private, write “A” (Assigned) in this column. Always use this feature for Fax and modem extensions.
Forced Acct Code: Default = Not Activated. If a user should be required to enter an account code before placing an outside call, write “A” (Activated) in this column.
Coverage Rings: For calls going to a covering extension the Default = 2 rings. For calls going to a voicemail box the Default = 3 rings. You can choose between 1 to 9 rings. Enter the number of rings desired before a call is sent to the covering extension/or voicemail box. Can be set per extension for ACS 3.0 or later. Can only be set system wide for earlier releases.
