Answering calls
Your Octophon phone rings with the tone signal set when an incom-
ing call is received.
• When you receive an internal call, your telephone rings once ev-
ery four seconds (single-tone sequence).
• When you receive an external call, your telephone rings twice in
rapid succession every four seconds (dual-tone sequence).
• When you receive a call from the entrance telephone, your tele-
phone rings three times in rapid succession every four seconds
(triple-tone sequence).
• If a call is waiting, you hear a short tone (beep) every six seconds.

dences can be set for different internal callers.
