284 CHAPTER 5: SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
Ringing Patterns You can set system-wide ringing patterns to distinguish between internal
and external calls. You can choose one, two, or three rings to distinguish
between internal and external calls.
Do not confuse ringing patterns with ringer tones, which NBX system
users can set for their telephones using NBX NetSet. For information on
setting a user’s ringing tones, see the NBX Telephone Guide or the User
Help.
To set ringing patterns, select System Configuration > System Settings >
Ringing Patterns. See the Help for instructions.
Forward Voice Mail Off
Timeout
When a telephone’s FWD VMAIL button is disabled, this
field specifies the duration of ringing before a call is
forwarded to voice mail.
Line Port Hold Timeout For a call originating on an outside line (Analog Line Card
port), the length of time that the call remains on hold
before it rings at the extension that placed the call on hold.
Call Park Timeout The length of time that a call can be parked before it rings
at the extension that parked the call.
Conference Timeout The length of time before a conference attempt is
abandoned. Applies to a blind (unannounced) conference
only. The timeout takes effect under these conditions:
■ Two people, A and B, are involved in a call and one of
them attempts to blind conference another person, C.
■ C does not answer and C’s voice mail does not pick up
the call.
After the Conference Timeout period, the system stops
ringing C’s telephone, stops attempting to conference
with C, and reverts to the call between A and B.
Transfer Timeout The length of time that a transferred call attempts the
transfer before it rings back to the caller’s extension.
TAPI Line Redirect
Timeout
The length of time before a call redirected from a TAPI
route point by an external application goes back to its
original destination. After two failures, the call goes to the
TAPI route point’s call coverage option. For more
information, see “
TAPI Route Points” on page 265.
