Unique Line Ringing (#209)—Release 3.0 or Later
Description
This feature applies only to MLS, PARTNER, and TransTalk phones.
This feature allows a ringing pattern (maximum of eight) to be assigned on a per 
line basis for users to differentiate, by sound, which line is ringing. Once a ring 
pattern is assigned to a line, incoming calls on that line ring with the assigned ring 
pattern. Incoming calls that are transferred to another station ring with the 
assigned ring pattern followed by two “transfer beeps.” Transfer returned calls 
also ring with the two “transfer beeps”. Standard phones will ring with pattern 1 
only.
Considerations
■
You can program standard phones for any ring pattern, but they will ring 
with Pattern 1 only.
■
You must program MLC 6 phones with Pattern 1. If they are programmed 
with another pattern, they will not ring.
■
Since only one audible alert can be heard at a station at one time, the 
ringing pattern present at that station that has multiple lines alerting is for 
the line that rang first. Once the call is answered, the station will begin 
ringing using the pattern associated with the next alerting line for that 
station.
■
Incoming calls that are ringing at a pool button will ring with the pattern 
assigned to the line. Lines within a pool may be assigned individual ring 
patterns.
