Hi, I've got a SX 200 ICP.

My boss didn't want the nightline option turned on as people were forgetting to turn it off/on. So I created a mailbox that the the main line gets forwarded to. The only problem is that when the phone rings it goes into voicemail after 2 1/2 rings. I remember changing this option on an individual line but for the life of me can't remember where the option is.

Does anyone know where to find this?

Thanks in advance
 
You will change the Attendant Console Call Forward value under the CO Lines Class of Service.
 
Thanks very much, I should have been a bit more specific, but you got me on the right path and have fixed the problem.

I had to change the "Call Forward Don't Answer" timer setting. It was set at 2, which I switched to 5.

I have our main number forwarding to another mailbox on an existing extension, so I wasn't using the auto attendant.

Thanks again for your help and speedy reply
 
Are you saing it was the Call Forward Don't Answer timer?

If so, that's not what is normally used for this.
