Q:I dont ever expect to receive a manual fax or a modem call that can't
dial the SAC. Is there another reason I should ever need to turn this
feature on?
A:No, not normally.
Maximum Rings
This feature allows you to program the number of rings generated to your phones/
answering machine, fax and modem by The Stick II before dropping or transferring the
call (depending on your programming for Unanswered Call Silent Transfer). Maximum
Rings can be programmed anywhere from 1 (minimum) to 30 rings. Factory preset is 8
rings to all equipment.
Q:Is this feature so my phone, fax or modem wont ring off the wall if
my answering machine, modem or fax machine wont pick up the call?
A:Exactly.
Silent Transfer Destination
After activating the Unanswered Call Silent Transfer feature, you will want to tell
The Stick II where to route the call. The Destination programmable feature gives you
the option of routing unanswered calls to any port. Factory preset is Port 4 for both Line
1 and Line 2.
Q:Wont my answering machine turn on after so many rings?
A:Yes and no. Your answering machine will turn on after so many rings if
the call coming in is ringing one of the ports to which you have your
phone and answering machine connected. However, if you have your
Maximum Rings set to 3 and your answering machine set to turn on after
5 rings, then the call will be dropped before your answering machine
turns on.
