Need to change the ringtone on Panaswonic KX-T7420. How do I do that?

As discussed in an earlier FIXYA post 2011
http://www.fixya.com/support/t10722926-change_ringtone_panasonic How can we change the ringtone on Panasonic KX T7730 phone

The phone has 8 ring tones. From the idle phone, press PROGRAM and dial 99. Press the intercom or a CO line button TWICE and dial 2-8 on the keypad (1 is already default). When you're satisfied with the tone, press STORE. You have to do this for each line and the intercom you want to change and you need to do this at each phone. Pick up the handset and drop it back down to exit programming.

You add a Panasonic brand voice mail system. You can do it yourself, but it's easier to call a dealer. You have to have a specific issue software on your TD phone system and it requires programming, both in the voice mail and the KSU. I charge about $700 for the hardware and programming, your Pana dealer will probably charge about the same.

If you want to gamble, you can probably pick up a used TVS voice mail box for less than $400, but again, there are so many boxes that don't work. As a minimum, a TVA-50 would be best, since it's the current manufacture and it can be upgraded.

Program 99 press the button and dial 8 165 STORE. That assumes that you're using the default VM access code.

You log into the system owner's mailbox (999) and follow the prompts to edit the mailboxes. One of them will let you reset the password.

Reset? How about you just program new ones over the old? I'm guessing you mean intercom DSS buttons, so you dial PROGRAM 99, press the button and dial 1+ the new extension STORE. Keep doing that to all the buttons you want to program and then pick up the handset and drop it back down again when you're done.

If it's a Panasonic brand voice mail, you administer the system from the System Owner's mailbox (999). With that, you can use option 4 or 5 and reset the mailbox password to any and all mailboxes (except 999 :-)

There are 2 things that would prevent you from being able to answer a ringing phone by picking up the handset. Your phone has to be ringing, and you need to set preferred line ringing on incoming calls.

The second part is easy. Press PROGRAM 99 and dial 22 STORE on your phone. Now when a call rings on your phone you can pick it up. If you can't, then your phone is not ringing.

Ringing is set in system programming.

You need to go into Setting BS. Which is in the Menu funtion and then scroll down twice. Then press the arrow right ket and it should say input code. Press star key once then type in the time, and press the right arrow key again to register it. Repeat the same process to enter the date except press the star key twice at the input code stage. Hope that makes sense!!

What phone system are you using? we will need to know the exact PBX or KSU to help. If your phone is a 7420 could be on a number of units, you will also need a 7430, 7453 or other display phone to program. In some cases this may not be an option or could require programming software by your vender to make work.
Reply and we can take this the next step.
