Another distinctive ring question... (unique for each SPX)

(1/1)

erkme73:
So I've read where you can change the default ring time (1-10) for SP1 and SP2, but it doesn't seem to make a difference when I make the change.

SP1 is my GV, SP2 is my wife's.  The idea would be when the call comes in on SP2, ring differently than on SP1.

But when I change the default ring type Voice services>SP1>X_defaultring, not matter what I pick, the ring is exactly the same.  I have a cordless phone attached that may be doctoring the ring signal, but I'm getting the same results when using a cheap $5 walmart phone.

I tried changing the SP1 and SP2, and am using the auto attendant (**0, 3, #0) to make the phone ring.

RonR:
There's a default ring pattern associated with each trunk (SP1/SP2/OBiTALK/LINE Port).  Only incoming calls through a particular trunk are affected by its associated ring pattern.  Testing by having the Auto Attendant call you back is not using any of those trunks.

erkme73:
Ah... so if in order to test what the rings sound like, I have to actually call in to the SP1 trunk?  I'd read in another thread to use the auto attendant to verify.   Or, maybe I need to change the ring style for the auto attendant ring temporarily to hear them.

Starting to make a little more sense.

NM... just tried, and the AA doesn't have a default ring association.  I will try by calling in from outside...

That was it... Thanks for the advice.
