Setting the Number of Rings
Before Answering
You can set the approximate number of times the
CapTel
will ring before the
Answering Machine answers the call. The default setting is four (4) rings, but
you can set it to be any number of rings between three and eight.
NOTE:
The ring count may be slightly different in telephone systems that use
“distinctive” ring patterns. Please experiment with this setting as needed for
your specific phone system.
To set the number of rings before answering:
1. With the handset hung up,
press the
YES
button to see the
Options menu.
2. Press the
DOWN
arrow button
until
Answering Machine
is
highlighted. Press the
YES
button to select.
3. Press the
DOWN
arrow button
repeatedly until
Answer Ring
Count
is highlighted. Press the
YES
button to accept.
4. Use the
UP
or
DOWN
arrow
buttons to select the number of
rings, from 3 rings up to 8 rings.
Press the
YES
button to select.
5. Press the
NO
button
repeatedly to exit.
On incoming calls, your
CapTel
phone will
ring this number of times before the
Answering Machine picks up the call.
