SNOM 820 MANUAL V.8 CUSTOMIZING PHONE SETTINGS

RINGTONES

You can choose one of 10 built-in ringtones or a custom melody, or turn off

the ringer.

1. A ringtone can be assigned to an identity so that incoming calls for dif-

ferent identities will be announced by different ringtones. See page 46,

Configuring New Identity/Account (web interface only), para 3.

2. A ringtone can also be assigned to contact types so that incoming calls

from phone numbers of that type will be announced by the selected ring-

tone. See page 38.

3. When using a headset, choose whether the ringtone will sound in the

headset or on the loudspeaker: Preferences > Ringtone Defaults >

Save.

NOTE: THE RINGER SET FOR A CONTACT TYPE OVERRIDES THE RINGER FOR A

PARTICULAR IDENTITY; IN CASE OF A CONFLICT THE PHONE WILL THE CONTACT

TYPE RINGER. IF YOUR RINGTONES DON’T SEEM TO WORK AS EXPECTED, CON-

TACT YOUR ADMINISTRATOR. THERE MAY BE AN OVERRIDING SETTING ON THE

PBX.
