Ringdown Extension, Internal/External
Description
With a Ringdown Extension, a user can call another extension, outside number, or Abbreviated Dialing
number by just lifting the handset. The call automatically goes through - there is no need for the user to
dial digits or press additional keys. Ringdown Extensions are frequently used for lobby telephones,
where the caller just lifts the handset to get the information desk or off-site Reservation Desk.
After the Ringdown Extension user lifts the handset, ringdown occurs after a programmable interval.
Depending on the setting of this interval, the extension user may be able to place other calls before the
ringdown goes through.
Conditions
Ringdown extension has no effect on an extension’s current (active) call.
The Ringdown Extension user can lift the handset or press the Speaker key to initiate
ringdown.
If the Ringdown/Hotline destination is a speed dial bin, the appropriate service code must
proceed the bin number.
Ringdown Extension can use Speed Dial – System/Group/Station numbers (and follow
their trunk routing) as the destination number.
Ringdown Extension follows Call Forwarding. For example, the ringdown destination can
forward their calls. When the Ringdown Extension user lifts the handset, ringdown
automatically calls the extension to which calls are forwarded.
If the Ringdown Extension user hears busy tone when they lift the handset, they can Camp
On to the destination, leave a Callback or activate Off-Hook Signaling.
The ringdown destination user can activate Do Not Disturb. When the Ringdown Extension
user lifts the handset, they hear DND. If enabled, the Ringdown Extension user can
override the destination’s DND.
If the destination extension has Handsfree Answerback enabled, the call will voice-
announce. If the destination extension has Forced Intercom Ringing enabled, the call will
ring.
A Call Arrival (CAR) Key or Virtual Extension can be a ringdown destination. This would
allow a ‘front door’ key to be programmed on every extension.
Delayed Ringdown can occur by setting the Hotline Start Timer. However, Ringdown will
not occur if the Hotline Start Timer is set longer than the Extension Dial Tone Timer.
