Internal Ring Tone Override 1

[sizbut]

A while back I played with the new Ring Tone Override features. Basically they allow you to change the ring tone used by 1400/9500 phones when receiving a call from a specific incoming call route or hunt group.

Well, apart from the feature being poorly documented, I just learnt that you can use an r character in short codes to do the same. This allows you to also use ring tone override on internal calls.

So having setup a ring tone plan (see System | Ring Tones | Ring Tone Plan), in a Dial Extn short code you can add r to the telephone number field where n is the number of the Ring Tone Plan entry to use.

Have fun all.

Stuck in a never ending cycle of file copying.

Why making a feature code and separate settings for a ring tone while all other product in the ROW have that as default ( different ring internal/external/to be transfeered external call).
But the info is very helpfull, thanks for sharing, a star is born.
