In 3-42 right now it is not terminated anywhere. In 3-43 it is terminated to station 30, the first VM port.
And 1-1-77 is set for 20 Seconds.
The VM ports are:
port 25=station 30
port 26=station 31
port 27=station 32
port 28=station 33

Now as a test I assigned 3-42 to station 10, it rings about 5 times then goes to VM. So I know that works. BUT non of the other station rings, because it's DIT to one station.

Does vm answer when in "night mode" (following the assignment in 3-43)?

In 4-01, port 25.... are the line keys lit "red"?

Your test using 3-42 = 10 tested the "Busy/No Answer" forwarding. Can you do another test: assign station 11 in 4-01 to "delay Ring"? Call in to see if station 11 starts ringing after 20 secs. This will verify that "Delay Ringing" works.

Another place to look:

Check tenant assignments. In MB 2-01 (Trunk to tenant) assignment: Tenant 00 (first 2 digits to left of display)... all trunks lit up.
Verify tenants 01, 02, etc... no trunks lit up.

In MB 4-09 (Telephone to Tenant assignment): ports 25 - 28 are in tenant # 00 (last digits - far right of display).

This just occured to me...are your voice mail ports connected via a SLI-8 card or SLT U-10/20 adapters. I think delay ring was'nt supported on the SLT adapters...

Also, DIT delay was not avalable on the PRO II. We want to set 1-1-77 delay timer, & 4-01 red line keys on th e1st VM port.

Now if the CPU has version 4-5.0 or under ( I think ) delay ring to a hunt group did not follow the hunt. The "work-around" for this was to DIT to a CAR key, then FWD NOANS to the VM pilot.

I'm using an sli-8 card, and looks like the delay ringing is not supported by the SLI card either. I have cpu version 5.02. So IPKII is correct to say the only option I have is to DIT to a car key which I have set up. Now 2 questions. How do I FWD NOANS the car to the VM pilot, and 2 can I set the CAR to ring on a SLI port, since I have a cordless phone setup on one of those ports. Which is port 29. Thanks for all the help so far.

From station port 01 or 02, press speaker, dial 45, dial CAR key extension number, dial V-mail pilot number, press speaker. You control the FWD NOANS timer in 1-2-22. This is a system wide timer, btw.

You can try assigning the CAR key to a button on the SLI port, then set that button to ring in memory block 4-37 (day)& 4-38 (night).
