Please log in for more thread options phone system. The answering machine has dial tone and can manually answer and call out. The problem is that it does not receive any incoming calls does not ring and does not pick up/answer when the line is called. I have checked the assigns in the manual and then double checked but it still doesn't answer/ring ? Anyone have ideas ? Thanks in advance. | |||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options The answering machine evidently has an extension number. Call that. Once you get it to answer, it must do this first, use Central Telephone Programming to insure the lines are assigned to that extension and are set for Immediate or Delayed ring.

Have you plugged in a 2600 phone to make sure you're getting ring voltage? And I forget the REN value on a Partner port, but it's not very high. If, on this extension, you have several 2600 phones and the answering machine you may be exceeding the REN value. Take care, Rich God bless the USA -- Pat Paulsen (1927-1997) for President - 2008 Even though he's dead it makes about much sense to vote for him as it does for the choices that we have who are living. At least he's not going change his position on anything. | |||||||||||||

What is the REN of a 2600 versus a 2500 ?
