Answer Delay

Answer delay sets the number of times your BT Paragon 450 will ring before the answering machine picks up your call. The default setting is 6 rings. You can change this setting to 2-9 rings or Time Saver.

Time Saver can save you the cost of a call when you want to ring in to find out if you have new messages.

If your answering machine answers after 2 rings, you have new messages. If you have no new messages it will answer after 6 rings. So if you hear a third ring, you can hang up before you are connected, saving you the cost of a call.
