Number of rings before the unit 
answers a call
You can change the number of times the 
phone rings “Ring count” before the unit 
answers calls. You can select 2 to 7 rings, or 
“Toll saver”.
The default setting is “4 rings”.
“Toll saver”: The unit’s answering system 
answers at the end of the 2nd ring when new 
messages have been recorded, or at the end 
of the 5th ring when there are no new 
messages. If you call your phone from outside
