telephone on the line. Incoming or Outgoing Calls can be placed ON
HOLD as often as necessary.
RING BACK REMINDER RING
SLS3 will generate a RINGBACK REMINDER ring, every 15 seconds
to remind you that you have a call on hold. This brief RINGBACK
REMINDER ring is generated internally and will RING all telephone(s)
connected direct to the LINE OUT PORT .
The time interval between reminder rings can be changed to suit, or the
ring can be disabled. See PROGRAMMING pages 14-19.

direct to the LINE OUT PORT of SLS3, without special technical
installation.
If you require the RINGBACK REMINDER FACILITY to ring ALL
telephones connected to your line, including those connected to other
telephone sockets, then a telephone technician will need to directly
wire your incoming telephone line through SLS3, immediately prior to
your first telephone socket.
