Create a Ringer

You can easily record a unique ringer to be used as either your Default Ringer or
for a Distinctive Ringer for assigning to a individual phonebook directory. You can
either record using the provided Audio Patch Cord (not the USB cord), or simply
use the Handset microphone. You may record 9 unique ringers for a maximum of 10
seconds each.

To record a ringer, follow these steps.

•

Select the Sounds & Alerts icon

in the Main Menu.

•

Select the Sound Clips icon.

•

If you are using the Audio Patch Cord, insert the 3.5mm plug (larger plug) into
the headset jack of your PC or audio source. Insert the 2.5mm plug (smaller
plug) into the Headset jack on the side of the

i 5836

Handset.

•

If you want to use the Handset microphone to record ringers, select Record Clip
menu option. Start recording your tone after you hear a beep.

NOTE: If the memory is full, it will prompt Clip memory full!

•

Hit the STOP softkey if you want to stop the recording.

•

After the recording is finished, you have the choice to PLAY or SAVE the recording.

NOTE: When you want to use the Handset microphone to record ringers, do not
insert the Audio Patch Cord into the headset jack.
