Automatic System Answer Delay (#110)

Description

This System Programming procedure specifies the number of times (0–9) an incoming call should ring before it is answered by the Automatic System Answer feature.

Related Features

■After a call is answered, Automatic System Answer plays a greeting then either places the call on hold, provides continuous ringing, or disconnects the call depending on the setting of Automatic System Answer Mode (#121).

■Automatic System Answer affects incoming calls only on lines identified using Automatic System Answer Lines (#204).

■You must program a button on the system display phone at extension 10 to turn Automatic System Answer on and off. Use Automatic System Answer Button (#111) to program the button.

■You must use Automatic System Answer Record/Playback to record the greeting callers hear when the system answers an incoming call.

■If you use Caller ID, make sure Automatic System Answer Delay is set to 2 rings or more to ensure that Caller ID information is captured.

Considerations

■The Automatic System/Direct Extension Dial PC card is purchased separately and must be installed (see PARTNER PC Card Installation Instructions).

■Use the Automatic System Answer Record/Playback feature to record a message before using Automatic System Answer since there is no default message.

■This feature works independently of Line Ringing, which determines how an outside call rings at the extension—immediately, after a 20 second delay, or not at all. Automatic System Answer Delay specifies the number of rings a caller hears before the system answers the call.
