Most of my experiences with phone systems like that at the EOC and the limo
company I used to answer phones for now and then when I was supposed to be
working on the guy's race car, they do ring different, it's a case of
figuring out which ring is which, I have a 2 line phone in the house here
from back when we had 2 lines, I had a private line when my father was sick,
and that one has 2 different rings too but anyway, all those have rung
different for each line. Worst thing is, in the EOC when we have many phones
and they all ring the same but the main ones can handle all lines and those
all ring different for each line.

Hi All, Thanks to all on this list for all your recent help! Lots going on
here, After being out of work since mid May last year, A Job with Our Super
Walmart has developed.
I've yet to do my orrientation, and not yet seen/felt, or been given
the make-Model-Nomenclature of the phone, but I've been told that it has a
hold button, a transfer button, some type of "P A Button, a standard keypad,
and Five "Line buttons, as The store has 5, five, incoming lines. Among
other things, I'll be answering incoming calls, and either directly
transfering them to in store extensions, or calling via the
P A, for individuals. When a call is "transferred to another extension,
which rings, but also releases the line on which it came in to be used
again. After a call's been "transferred, but not yet answered, and or a
line's been on hold for a period of time, it rings back to the operator. My
questions are,
1, do any of you know of anything besides a "beeping light probe," or
putting five different sounding ringers, one on each line, by which a blind
person could
1, know for sure which line is ringing,
2, know for sure which line is ringing back to me? Any help from any of you
would be much appreciated, thank you all again, Danny.
