Field Description
Ringing
Ring-on time…
milliseconds
Used by the messaging system with the ring-off time setting
to identify a ring signal. The ring signal consists of voltage
that alternates on and off. The field accepts the length (in
tenths of a second) for the “on” period in the ring cycle. For
example, set it to 10 for an “on” period of 1 second.
Ring-off time…
milliseconds
Used by the messaging system with the ring-on time setting
to identify a ring signal. The ring signal consists of voltage
that alternates on and off. Accepts the length (in tenths of a
second) for the “off” period in the ring cycle. For example,
set it to 40 for an “off” period of 4 seconds.
Wait through a complete
ring on an incoming call
before answering
When selected, the messaging system waits through a
complete ring on an incoming call before answering.
Otherwise, the system can answer in mid-ring.
Answering
Off-hook delay…
milliseconds
Wait the specified amount of time (in milliseconds) after
answering a call before playing a prompt or accepting
touchtones.
Pooled delay…
milliseconds
The length of time that the system waits for the ring signal to
settle after answering a call when the lines are set for pooled
ringing. The system ignores any ring signals received during
this waiting period. The pooled delay can be modified for
systems that do not quickly stop the ring signal to other
ports.
Disconnecting
Release on loop current
reversal (LCR)
When selected, the messaging system assumes that the
caller has hung up when the system receives a loop current
open signal from the phone system.
Use Station Numbers to
disconnect looped calls
When selected, if an answering port receives a call
originating from another voice mail port, it immediately
terminates the call. This feature only works on phone
systems that provide both calling station and forwarded
station identification.
