Distinctive Ringing
Description
Distinctive Ringing allows the installer or keyset extension user to customize keyset ringing. This permits 
the user to determine the type of call just by listening to their keyset ring. Distinctive Ringing provides:
❥Distinctive Ring Con figuration at Each Keyset
A keyset user can follow intuitive soft key menus to set up distinctive ringing for their phone. Their 
phone will even play back the new ring tones as the distinctive rings are being set up.
❥Line Override (Distinctive Ringing by Line and Ringing Mode) Each line can have its own distinctive ringing for each ring mode (day, night, or delay). This allows a 
keyset user, for example, to easily differentiate between new ringing calls and calls that are ringing their 
phone after a delay.
❥Extension Ring OverrideEach keyset extension can additionally override a line’s distinctive ringing with the extension’s own 
unique settings. Extension Ring Override helps identify ringing phones in large, open work areas.
❥Key Ring OverrideA keyset extension can set up unique ringing for each of its Call Coverage, Group Call Pickup, and line 
keys. If a user needs to know what type of call is ringing their phone, Key Ring Override will help.
❥Unique Ringing for UCD Groups and Ring GroupsUCD Groups and Ring Groups can have their own distinctive rings. This allows a user to tell the differ-
ence between Intercom calls ringing their phone and UCD or Ring Group Ca\
lls.
The Distinctive Ringing Hierarchy
An extension’s Distinctive Ringing uses the following hierarchy:
1.Key Ring Override
2.Extension Ring Override
3.Line Override
4.Default ringing assigned by the system
This means that Line Override will replace the default ringing assigned by the system. Extension Ring Over-
ride will in turn replace ringing set by Line Override. Finally, Key Ring Override will replace ringing set by 
Extension Override or ringing set by Line Override.
Allows users to customize their telephone’s ringing so they’ll know when calls are just for them.
ImportantUse  9014-01: Initialize Ring Tones  (page 920) to initialize Distinctive Ringing with a single command. 
Following initialization, you must reset the system or unplug and then re-plug each telephone .

Understanding Ring Types
The Ring Types determine how different types of calls rings extensions. Each Ring Type sounds unique 
because it uses one of the 10 available ring tones. The first four Ring Types are assigned by default (see the 
table below). The last two (B and C) are unassigned by default but you can assign on your phone using 
Extension Override  and Key Ring Override .
When Multiple Calls Ring an Extension
When multiple calls with different priorities are ringing an extension, the system prioritizes ringing accord-
ing to the list below. All LEDs will  flash as appropriate for the type of call, but the telephone will ring only 
for the highest priority call.
1. INTERCOM Key
2.Line Key (from lowest to highest)
3.Loop Key (from lowest to highest)
