To adjust the volume, press the VOL key to invoke the volume adjustment screen. Then use the
UP/DOWN keys to increase or decrease the volume. The kind of volume to adjust is by context.

UP/DOWN key press plays a short burst of the current ring tone. If one of the audio devices is
selected, the volume adjustment applies to that device. The screen shows a pictorial
representation of the volume level.
Each volume has 16 steps in nonlinear logarithmic scale. Each setting is a 16-bit multiplier in
the range 41 to 32764 in Q3.12 format (or 0.01 to 7.999 or 40 to 18 dB). Each step is equal to

The 900 Series phone offers 10 ring tones. The characteristics of each ring tone is configurable
using a Ring Tone script. In a Ring Tone script, the user can assign a name for the ring tone,
and specify two components:

The user can assign a default ring tone for each extension. The user can assign a ring tone for
each personal directory entry (which overrides the default ring tone). Ring tone can be selected
from the user interface. In addition, the 900 Series phone allows two user-downloadable ring
tones. Therefore a total of 12 ring tone choices are available as the default ring for an extension
or assigned to individual callers in the personal directory.
User-downloaded ring tone are labeled User 1 and User 2 in the choices for <Default Ring>.
On the phone ring tone menu, the User 1 and 2 choices are replaced by the corresponding name
of the ring tone or Not Installed if the user ring tone slots have not been used.
The user ring tone (1 or 2) can be downloaded using the phone web interface with the link:
