Misplaced manuel, how do you set voice mail to come on after 3 rings

Select the type and model of your phone from

to get the free downloadable manual.

Since you don't say what phone, what OS, or what carrier, I can only provide generalities. In the setup menu, look for the ringer or ring tone section. There's usually a setting for long or short, or something similar.

You can download the manual from the manufacturer's web site at

You can set your ring time to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 seconds.

• Tap **61*121*11* into your phone as if you're making a call.
• Next enter a time between 5 and 30 (the number of seconds in multiples of 5)
• Press # and then the call button. Don't put the phone to your ear - just look at the display until you see a message confirming your ring time has been set.

For example, **61*121*11*25# followed by the call button would set your ring time to 25 seconds.

Hi,

Sorry you cannot set ring count for voice mail to 3.

It has settings to set for 2,4 and 6.

Thanx

The caller id information is sent from your local telco provider after the first ring and might not be able to be extended to the individual sets, try backing off the ring to answer on your voice mail from 2 to 3 rings to see if the information is then passed on. The Voice Messaging System message is being sent from the system showing who transfered the call to you. You should also notice that the ring pattern when that message is displayed is a standard ring followed by a beep meaning a transfer is taking place.

This manual can be downloaded via pdf on the Motorola website. you will have to know your phone serial number and phone model to retrieve this.

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

Typically you want your phone system to ring your phones (say extension 10, 11 and 15) and then if no one answers after so many rings the call is transfered to the port the voice mail is on (let's say it's port 16) The voice mail is set to answer right away but does not "ring" until the call is transfered to it. This way (at 4 rings) if a call comes in on line 1 and you answer after 3 rings but a call comes in on line 2 at the same time, the first ring on line 2 will not make the total = 4 and set off the voice mail. I would guess the port at your voice mail is not set to ring and nothing is set up to transfer calls to your voice mail. Did you set this up yourself? How did you program the phone system?
