Apperance Button Operation: Programming Appearance Buttons
8.7.1 System Settings
System settings are applied to all users and calls. The system settings that affect appearance operation are found on the
System | Telephony tabs and are:
· Auto Hold: Default = On.
Used for users with multiple appearance buttons. When on, if a user presses another appearance button during a call,
their current call is placed on hold. When off, if a users presses another appearance button during a call, their current
call is disconnected.
· Conferencing Tone: Default = Entry & Exit Tones.
This settings controls how conference tones are used. It can be set to either Entry & Exit Tones or Repeating Tone
.
· With Entry & Exit Tones a single tone is heard when a new party joins a conference and double-tone is heard
when a party leaves the conference.
· With Repeating Tone a conference tone is heard every 10 seconds by all conference parties.
· Ring Delay: Default = 5 seconds. Range = 0 to 98 seconds.
This setting is used when any of the user's programmed appearance buttons is set to Delayed ringing. Calls received
on that button will initially only alert visually. Audible alerting will only occur after the ring delay has expired. This
setting can be overridden by a ring delay set for an individual user (User | Telephony | Multi-line Options | Ring Delay
).
· Visually Differentiate External Call: Default = Off.
This setting is applied to the lamp flashing rate used for bridged appearance and call coverage appearance buttons on
1600 and 9600 Series phones and on their button modules. When selected, external calls alerting on those buttons will
use a slow flash (200ms on/50ms off). If not selected or if the call is internal, normal flashing (500ms on/500ms off) is
used.
