How can I change the number of rings before my voice mail comes on. It now rings 5 ime. I would like it to ring 3 times.l

Hi there

The Nortel and any other of PBX come with the voice mail, and you configure the voice mail as a phone ring.... If you can not pick up your phone in 3 time of ring then automatically your phone transfer on Voice mail and there as you setup..........In voice mail it asked which number you want to call and say the details Example: - Dail 1 to Drawing Room Dial 2 for Dinning Hall Dial 3 for Bed Room..


You just configure you voice mail system and solve you problem.


Thanks

When it stops ringing, the caller goes to your voice mail, right?

If so, then you need to contact your phone company and have them change your "Ring Cycle" -- that's the number of rings before the voice mail system picks up.

Some phone companies have a way for you to do this yourself from their website, other require that you call up the customer service line. Either way, the thing you want to adjust is your voice mail ring cycle.

I dont think you can change the number of times it will ring, it all depends on what ringtone you have set i think. But you can look on the manual.

Depending on the type and version of your partner system the procedure should be as follows:
1) from either ext 10 or 11 press the feature key and 00 on the dialpad
2) press the left hand intercom twice
the display should say system programming
3) dial "#506"
the display should say vms hunt delay
4) enter either 1 for day ringing assignment or 2 for night ring
5) dial the 2 digit line number i.e. line 1 is 01...
the display should say the ammount of rings previously programmed (3 Rings)
6) dial "2" on the dial pad
repeat the steps from number 3 on for the rest of the lines
7) press feature 00 whem finished


hope this helps.

You have to change the rings from the voice mail server. If you don't know your way around the server, its best to get a local NEC tech although it is fairly simple to navigate. Depends on your skill. Typical default password for the server is NEC

This is done on ext 10 or 11
Feature 00
Left intercom, left intercom
(for main aa)#506
Mode 1 for day, 2 for night
enter line number ex 01, 02 etc
