I am assuming this is on a DTU 16D nec phone. On the right side of the phone is a volume up and down button. If someone calls you, you adjust this while the phone is ringing. If you adjust it after you answer it controls the voice volume (what you hear through the ear piece) if you adjust it while the handset is down but there is no one calling you it adjusts the display contrast on the phone.

SOURCE: Ringer volume

Adjusting the ringer will depend on the type NEC system you have. On the PRO II, Elite, and IPK just press the Speaker button and dial 601. The Phone should begin to ring and you can then adjust the volume with the up and down arrows.

How do you turn the ringer on/off on aatt 993 2 line phone

If you mean the AT&T 993 two-line speakerphone, you can adjust the ringer volume for each line when the phone is not in use. To increase the ringer volume on the primary line (if set), press the Volume Up arrow. To decrease the ringer volume, press the down arrow. There are 8 different volume levels available for the ringer. The Volume Up/Down buttons are below the * and 0 keys.

To adjust the ringer volume on the secondary line, press that line button (between the Conference and Hold buttons) and then press the Volume Up or Down buttons as needed. (If you haven't programmed a primary line, press a Line button and adjust that line's ring volume before pressing the other Line button. Then adjust the volume for that Line.)

I hope this helps. These directions are shown on page 32 of the manual. AT&T currently has the manual here : https://att.vtp-media.com/ecp/documents/product_Product/227/UserManual/5596/993_manual_i14.pdf . To find this manual or other AT&T phone manuals, start here: https://telephones.att.com/product-support/manuals .

Old Pay Phone, how do I adjust the ringer volume

Those phones do not have any adjustment for the ringer volume. The only way you might be able to do it would be to add an amplifier into the phone system.

Don't know how to increase the ring volume?

To increase the volume for the ringer, the volume buttons located on the charging stand can adjust the volume. To change the ringer volume on the phone instead of using the stand, go to the menu on the phone and type 1 then 1 again. This will take you to the ringer volume screen. You can select between the options:{1}: Low {2}: Medium {3}: {0}: Off.
