RingMaster^® Service - One Additional Telephone Number Instructions

RingMaster® Service - One Additional Telephone Number allows you to have up to two telephone numbers on the same line. Although you can have up to two telephone numbers, you have just one line and only one conversation can be held at a time. You will receive a Distinctive ringing pattern for each telephone number. This lets you know who a call is for before you answer your telephone. You can also identify who a call is from by providing your additional telephone numbers only to specific parties, such as:

	Business associates (for business calls received at home).
	Friends/relatives
	Children's friends.

If you have Call Waiting, you will also receive distinctive Call Waiting tones. You can better determine whether or not to interrupt your current conversation and answer the waiting call.

Each telephone number has a Distinctive Ringing and Distinctive Call Waiting Tone pattern.

 

	Main Number	First Additional Number
Ringing	One long ring(Normal ring)	Two short rings
Call Waiting	One long tone(Normal Call Waiting Tone)	Two short tones

If you subscribe to Call Waiting and Call Forwarding, you will receive additional benefits from these services when used in conjunction with RingMaster service. It is only necessary to subscribe to call Waiting and Call Forwarding once for the services to be available on all of your RingMaster service telephones numbers.

With RingMaster service, Call Forwarding can operate in one of two arrangements. You choose which arrangement you want at the time you establish RingMaster service (if you also have Call Forwarding). To change from one arrangement to the other, you must contact your local Telephone Company Business Office. A service order charge will be incurred for subsequent changes.

	Forward All Telephone Numbers. All telephone numbers are forwarded when Call Forwarding is activated. With this arrangement, all of your telephone numbers are forwarded to the same telephone number.
	Forward Main Telephone Number Only. Your main telephone number only is forwarded when Call Forwarding is activated. With this arrangement, while your main telephone number is forwarded, your additional telephone number (s) will continue to ring and can be answered at your premises
