There are many different ways to tell if your phone is receiving an incoming call. Depending on the phone model selected and the various features that the phone offers you might see any of the following features on an Ericsson phone.

 

(1)The phone selected may have a multiple ring option allowing the user to program a ring tone or even a melody tone, and the loudness of the tone in the phone for incoming calls. Some models allow the user to do a mixture of both.

 

(2)At the top of the Ericsson phone is a light green LED (Light emitting diode). A user may also see the LED rapidly flashing green during an incoming call.

 

(3) The phone display will also light up on an incoming call, flashing the backlight of the display. Along with that the phone will display the message on the screen CALL RECEIVE and will flash in the display.

 

(4) Newer phone models are being designed with a built in Vibration alert, to allow the user to know when an incoming call is being received. Upon the incoming call the vibration alert begins pulsing the phone with user programmable options of ring with vibration, or vibration only.

 

For phones that do not have the built in vibration alert Ericsson provides a Silent Call Alert accessory for 600,700, and 800 series phones.
