Answering Machine

Why doesn't the 2nd line go to the answering machine when I'm on the 1st line?  It'll just continue ringing until they hang up or I put the 1st call on hold & answer it!

It's quite possible you are running into one of these situations:

An Auto Attendant is in use and cannot answer the incoming call when someone at that extension is:
- accessing messages, or
- using any of the lines to make or answer a call, or
- on an intercom call, or
- programming the phone, or
- when a message is being recorded at that extension.


So, it looks like you'll need to setup the Answering System.  To do so, go to page 40 of this document.
