Hi all. My first post here, ive been reading lots of stuff about turning norstar nancy off and nothing ever definative so here it goes.
Nortel Flash
I have a client who doesnt want any of that chatty nortel nancy stuff. I have got it down to her just saying "the opperator is not available".then GM greeting I have aa on ccr tree off and only mail box is 10

I need 1 mail box to answer line 1 in 1 ring and line 2 and 3 in 4 rings, say leave a message and start recording...that simple

Can she be silent and never say a word

You said you have AA on... so turn it off in AA/Lines/XXX/AA=NO

As for being picking on the lines you only have two choice:

Option 1- AA answers and be set to any ring count including 0 and record a greeting

Option 2- Forward the phone that has the particular lines to voice mails DN via Capabilities

Problem here is you would need Line 1 to Appear and Ring on one phone and Lines 2 and 3 the same on another phone.


Seems like they are better off having there AA and CCR setup properly.

It's the ring count being different on each of the 3 lines that is the chore here....can you expand on why different ring counts? and does it all have to go to the same mailbox?
Are these lines assigned to Appear & Ring on all sets? or mixed bag? how many rings required for each line?
Are they 3 separate companies?

The only thing I can think of since Flashtalk only has 2 Tables is to have one phone answer one line that has the longest amount of rings and each Table answer the other 2 lines with some trickery to get to a mailbox fast without the prompts.

Example
Ext 221 is programmed to CFNA to vmails DN at 4 rings
Line 1 goes to 221's mailbox

Line 2 is answered by AA at 3 rings, Table/1 Atdnt is set to 000, Greeting 1 and AA Menu Prompt is recorded as a second of silence, CCR 1 path 0 record to say to continue press 1, path 1 is LVMSG to mailbox XXX
Line 2 is answered by AA at 2 rings, Table/2 Atdnt is set to 000, Greeting 2 and AA Menu Prompt is recorded as a second of silence, CCR 2 path 0 record to say to leave a message press 1, path 1 is LVMSG to mailbox XXX

Yep different ring counts on each line, bummer right? here I have to run out to my van to get the paper

OK,.,.

Its line one rings 1x, 2 rings 3 x and line4 3 rings 3x.

his voice and beep. Would be nice if they could all go to the same mail box too. Wishful thinking huh?

-"Are these lines assigned to Appear & Ring on all sets? or mixed bag?"
-And do the other sets have their own mailboxes or can it be just one for all?

Do you not know the reasons for the specific ring counts?
1 ring is not much time to answer a phone....you might as well set it to 0 to put yourself out of misery instead of having to listen to one ring.

I would just tell them that it's the phone systems default feature and to deal with it. lol. They shouldn't have bought a well equipped phone system if you don't like all the juggernut from Nancy or as I call Meridian Mary....in reality Joan Kenley.

He's retired but still gets calls for 2 companies, his and his wife's, they pretty much just go to voice mail. Appear and ring is something I have room to play with.

Turns out ring count is more important than my favroit one so far "Bionic Betty" by curlycord...agreed he should have got a better set up considering what he paid for this set up...Back then he could have got a brand new NEC DSX with a much more powerful O.S. for running multiple companies
