420 is designed to work as a
system, the 420 supports advanced telephone features such as intercom, paging and call

connected to line 1 should not exceed
600 feet.
The 420 is designed to support telephone company features, including CENTREX. Caller ID and
Call Waiting Caller ID and other telephone company features require subscription to these
services.

■ You must subscribe to the combined service of Call Waiting and Call Waiting Caller ID to use the Call Waiting
Caller ID feature. Check with your local telephone company for service availability.
■ DSL service on line 1 or 2 may interfere with system communications. Use line 3 or 4 for DSL.

SETTING THE DELA Y RING
The DELAY RING is useful in installations where all 4 lines are common (square) and a
receptionist is answering all calls. Each extension would activate the DELAY RING for the
desired period of time except for the receptionist.
Incoming calls would ring at the receptionist extension ONLY for the DELAY RING time. If the
receptionist doesn’t answer, after that time other extensions would begin to ring. By varying the
delay ring time, a hierarchy of back-up for the receptionist can be defined.
Most ring cycles are 6 seconds per ring. So to delay for two rings, program 12 seconds. For
three rings, program 18 seconds, and so on. Programming is in two second increments. The
default is DELAY RING OFF.
NOTE TO VOICE MAIL SUBSCRIBERS:
■ If you set the DELAY RING for LONGER than the number of rings that the voice mail waits before answering,
the phone will never ring.

▼ button until the following screen
