KX-TGA101S is an add-on handset for a Panasonic KX-TG1000 series cordless phone system. One of the models that is compatible with the handset is the KX-TG1032S. You can find the manual for the phone system on the product page here: https://shop.panasonic.com/support-only/KX-TG1032S.html . Assuming that you do not have voice mail from your telephone provider, you can change the number of rings from the Answering Device Settings Menu.

Start with the phone system in standby (no incoming or outgoing calls) mode. Press Menu and use the up/down keys to navigate to Answering Device. Press OK to enter the sub-menu. Navigate to Settings and press OK. Navigate to Ring Count and press OK. Use the up/down arrows to choose a new number of rings. Press OK to save and press Off to exit the menu system. Note: if the ring count is set to Toll Saver mode, the answering system will pick up on the second ring if there are new messages. It will pick up the incoming call on the fourth ring if there are no new messages.

See page 31 of the manual for the KX-TG1032 for this information. See page 23 for the way to navigate through the menu and a list of the menu tree items. The current link to the manual is ftp://ftp.panasonic.com/telephone/om/kx-tg1031_en_om.pdf .

I hope this helps.

This is a PBX based phone - talk to your vendor or system administrator to change ring quantity. Phoen manual below... http://www.phoneconnection.com/productcatalog/panasonic/pdf/KX-DT521_543_546_590_Quick_Ref_Guide.pdf

You need to program the internal voice mail to pick up calls after 6 rings , or program your answering machine to pick up sooner, perhaps 3 or 4 rings.

The KX-TG2313 isn't an answering machine. It will ring until you pick up, an answering machine or voicemail system picks up, or the caller hangs up.

To change the ring count, refer to the documentation for whatever answering machine or voicemail system you have on your phone line. If you require further assistance, please add a comment to this question and identify the answering machine or voicemail system.

Record a Personal Greeting


Access the answering system from any handset. Wait until the system finishes its announcements, or press 5 (Stop) to skip them.

Press 8 (RecNewGreeting).

Wait for the system to say "Record greeting," then begin speaking.

When you're finished, press 8 to stop recording. The system plays back your new greeting.


To keep this greeting, press End. To re-record it, go back to step 2.

If this is forwarding to the answering machine on YOUR phone, from the intercom dial *713xx where xx is a number of seconds. I think by default it's using the system number of 40 or 45 seconds. Try 24 for 4 rings (or multiply the number of rings by 6 and you get seconds).

If you're talking about SYSTEM rings before the VM, it's a different story and it requires system programming.

My parents have had their Panasonic KX-TGA101 for a little over a year and it just stopped working. It no longer rings when a call comes in. Plus when we try to answer a call or place a call all we get is a busy signal both auditory and in the display window.
SOLUTION: you might want to change a new phone line, that's maybe the culprit, most of the time is the phone line is worn out first due to too many reasons.

However the model # is for an external handset (add-on)
The number of rings is set on the base.

Please post the Model # of the actual Base unit for help on the answering machine.
