8.6.3 Ringing Line Preference
Ringing Line Preference determines the user's currently selected button as the button which has been alerting the
longest. Selected button indication is applied to that button and if the user goes off-hook, for example by lifting their
handset, the alerting call on that button is answered.
Ringing Line Preference includes calls alerting on call appearance, line appearance, bridged appearance and call coverage
buttons.
· Ringing Line Preference overrides Idle Line Preference.
· By default Ringing Line Preference is on for all users.
· Ringing Line Preference Order
When a user's longest waiting call alerts on several of the user's appearance buttons and Ringing Line Preference is
set for the user, the order used for current selected button assignment is;
· Call appearance.
· Bridged appearance.
· Call coverage.
· Line appearance.
· Example:
A user has a call to a covered user alerting initially on a line appearance button. Ringing Line Preference assigns
current selected button status to the line appearance. When the same call also begins to alert on the call
coverage appearance button, current selected button status switches to the call coverage appearance button.
· Ring Delay and Ringing Line Preference
Appearance buttons can be set to Delayed Ring or No Ring. These buttons still alert visually but do not give an
audible ring or tone. Ringing line preference is still applied to alerting buttons even if set to Delayed Ring or No
Ring.
· Delayed Ring Preference
For users with Ringing Line Preference selected, their Delayed Ring Preference setting sets whether ringing
line preference is used or ignores buttons that are visually alerting but have Delayed Ring or No Ring set. The
default is off, ie. ignore ring delay.
