Making Calls – Basic Functions

Answering Calls

Special default ring signaling is set for your telephone:
• When you receive an internal call or callback, your
telephone rings once every four seconds (single-
tone sequence).
• When you receive an external call, your telephone
rings twice in rapid succession every four seconds
(dual-tone sequence).
• When you receive a call from the entrance telepho-
ne, your telephone rings three times in rapid suc-
cession every four seconds (triple-tone sequence).
• If a call is waiting, you hear a short tone (beep) every
six seconds.
• When you receive a timed reminder, your telephone
rings twice (double-tone sequence, i.e. long ring fol-
lowed by short ring).
The number and/or name of the caller appears on the
display unless suppressed by the caller.
If a name is saved in your HiPath 1200 for the caller's
station number, it is displayed (if configured by the ser-
vice personnel).
The service personnel can also program the system to
display the multi-station number (MSN) dialed in the
case of external calls or the name assigned to the MSN.
