Chapter 5 Setting up the Automated Attendant 51
Assigning the number of rings before CallPilot answers
You can assign the system to answer incoming calls after a specified number of rings. The number of rings ranges from 0 to 12. If you leave the number of rings at zero, the system answers immediately.
For lines equipped with Calling Line Identification (CLID), you must set the number of rings to two or more if you use analog lines. CLID is not provided until just prior to the second ring, so assigning the number of rings to 0 or 1 prevents CLID from being relayed. You do not have to set the number of rings to two or more for CLID if you use BRI/PRI lines. For more information about the type of lines you use contact your Norstar administrator.
Without CLID, personalized greetings, CLID Routing Table and other features related to CLID do not work.
