Automatic System Answer Delay (#110)
7
Use this feature to specify the number of times (0–9) an incoming call should ring before it is
answered by Automatic System Answer.
Considerations

■
Automatic System Answer Delay works independently of Line Ringing, which determines
how an outside call rings at an 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.
■
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.
■
If you use T1 lines with Direct Inward Dialing (DID) that are not administered for Direct
Inward Dialing (DID) in PARTNER ACS R6.0 PC Administration, set the number of rings to 1
ring or more.
