has priority over the phone or line settings, see 

section 4.2

5.2.1.  Setting the Ring Type 

The IP Phone uses one of fourteen distinctive ring types for incoming call notification.  Nine are stored in 

the memory of your IP Phone and the remaining five (5) must be downloaded prior to use.  By assigning 

different ring signals to closely located phones, you can identify the ringing phone.  The ring type 

assigned for the IP Phone is the “Default Ring Type” that can be set to “ringer off” or one of the fourteen 

tones.
