partner acs forward to cell 1

[fastfrank]

I,m hoping sonebody can help me with this. Customer has a partner acs R7 & partner messaging R7 in her home. she would like the phone to ring 6 times when the maid is there and when she's not the call is forwared to her cell phone. My question is can I do this without the AA announcement. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes. Program line ownership of the lines #208 to an extension (say x10). Then, program x10 to have remote call forward capability, program her cell phone as speed dial 80 on x10, and program a forward button on x10. Now, when the maid leaves, she'll press the forward button, then 10 80 and it will forward the call to her cell.

To increase the number of rings prior to voicemail, use #321 (vms cover rings) and set that to 6. By default I believe it is set to either 3 or 4.

Thanks Telecomboy, I wasn't sure if the rest of the phones would ring if I used line ownership on a forwarding extenstion.
