Ring delay

You can set the number of times the answering machine would ring before it answers the call. This only applies when the answering machine is turned on.

User can adjust the toll saver to change the amount of rings emitted before the answer machine responds. You can set the number of rings from 2 rings to 7 rings or toll saver.

The toll saver option is useful when using the remote access feature (see page 30). When the toll saver ts is selected, the answering machine will ring four times if no new messages are recorded or two times if there is a new message. We advise you to hang up after the third ring if you want to check if you have any new message at no cost.
