• Distinctive Ring—this enables users to distinguish between internal,
external and operator calls by the way the phone rings:
— Enable Distinctive Ring. Select this to establish a short double ring
cadence for internal calls and a normal, single ring for external
calls. Unselected, both ring are normal.
— Enable Operator Priority Ring. Select this for the system to
produce a long single ring between short pauses on calls from the
operator.
• System Home Area Code—the area code for the system location.
• System Main Number—the main system telephone number, which is
sent to the pager’s display when a user’s messaging options are
configured to call a pager. This is also the number subscribers call to
access the AltiMail Voice Messaging System.
• Conference Bridge Option—Selected, conference calls will end
when all internal lines have disconnected from the conference bridge.
Not selected, the conference connection can continue between outside
parties, even after all internal parties have disconnected.
• System Call Park Ring Back Timing—the System Call Park allows
the user to park a call, then pick up the call from another extension,
forward the call, or take some other action. If the call is forgotten or
the forward not picked up, the Ring Back time sets the number of
minutes a call remains parked before the user’s extension is rung
again. To the caller, the call park sounds like being put on hold.
• Operator Extension and Workgroup Members. Select the extension
to be used by the system operator. For the extension you select, the
workgroup members show up in the Workgroup Members box. For
further information on extensions, see “Extension and Workgroup
Configuration” on page 85.
