Coverage
— If a sender has both Primary and Secondary Coverage and all the
receivers’ Cover buttons are set for Immediate Ring, the Group
Coverage Ring Delay should be set higher than the Primary Cover Ring
Delay or the 2-ring fixed Secondary Cover Delay Interval.
— If both Primary and Secondary Cover buttons are programmed for a
sender and any receiver’s Primary and/or Secondary Cover buttons are
programmed for Delay Ring, make the value higher than whichever of
the following is greater:
The Primary Cover Ring Delay
The fixed Secondary Cover Delay Interval (two rings) plus the
Secondary Cover Ring Delay
■
In Release 4.1 and later systems, the system manager uses system
programming to set a Primary Cover Ring Delay (1–6 rings) for each
sender.
■
In releases prior to 4.1, a systemwide value is set for the Coverage Delay
Interval through system programming (1–9 rings). When used in
combination with Delay Ring, make sure that this value is higher than the
Delay Ring interval.
NOTE:
In releases prior to 4.1, the value set for the Delay Ring Interval
(1–6 rings) through system programming affects Individual Coverage
only. This setting is replaced in Release 4.1 and later systems.
