Does silent mode silent the base ring as well?

Laci and Marjorie are correct. Base ringer is controlled separately.Since I have a handset charging on it all the time, I chose to just set silent mode on the base permanently.

No. You will need to turn the base unit ringer off in addition to setting each handset to the silent mode which can be done for certain hours of the day or night as needed. Or just set the silent mode which will display on each phone that is set.

Haven't tried it, but from reading the manual it looks like the base ringer is controlled by a separate sub-menu command. It is possible to program it so that it remains silent for a certain period of time. The handset ringer is controlled by a different command than the base ringer.

You have the option of silencing just the base, or just the handset, or both. You can select on your own

I'll answer your question this way. I have silent mode set for one of my extensions but none of the others. Each extension has its own menu of controls. Only the one extension in silent mode does not ring. The others all ring. Now, as for the base station ringing, that is on another floor and I've not heard it ring, except when I'm on that floor. So, does setting one extension to 'silent' mean that all others are silent? No. I assume, but am not certain that this is also true for the base station. I'll bet it rings and will continue to do so unless I tell it not to.

It is not silent. There is a motor in the base that spins at high rmp forcing air through slits in the ring. It is considerably quieter than conventional bladed fans and the noise is constant. (no buffeting or ambient noise distortion)

Yes. Select settings, sound, outdoor. While outdoor highlighted press options, then ring only. Press OK on ring only and you can select ring, vibrate or other options.

Yes you can mute it, but need to hit the power button on the unit to actually turn power off

I looked in the manual and there is nothing in there to indicate you can shut the ringer off.

Just check your settings and see if it somehow got put into silent mode. Outside of that, I don't have any other idea.

It's not exactly a mute button but the handsets can be programmed not to ring for a specific period of time. I have not used that feature but it is covered on Pg 29 of the manual

You set your cell phone on silent alert, place the phone behind the unit (slip it between the unit and the elastic band), and you're done. If you get a phone call, the vibration of the phone causes the RingMaster to go off. You can adjust the volume on the unit to your liking. I am pleased with mine and feel it was a worthwhile purchase.

We have other phones in the home and have the wall phone sound turned off. I just did check it, however, and it does work.Only adjustment I have is the side lever with down arrow for loud. As stated, I turned it all the way opposite loud to turn off.we did not care for the ring sound.

The options I see for the ring are simply Hi - Low -Off. I haven't tried to set the quality of the ring sound. (Right now, I'm keeping this phone as a spare, since I like the Plantronics T10 better for most purposes.)

Yes it does. It has two function buttons that change based on what you are doing. When you are on a call, one of them is a mute function.

No, it's built into the base. But I believe you can turn the answering part off.

The base has a physical "MUTE" button. The handsets use one of the 3 multifunction buttons that are located just below the screen. When dialing or talking, the right most button is labeled for "MUTE" use.

In the handset configuration menu, there is an option to set the ringer volume. It can be completely turned off. Also, the system has a programmable silent mode, where you can tell the phone not to ring during certain times. I have not experimented with that, so I don't know how flexible it is. Hopefully this helps. And when you have a moment, check my books (by Ward Wagher) on sale through Amazon.

Actually, yes! I have the product manual in front of me. The default setting plays the incoming messages over the base speaker, but you can turn that off by turning off Call Screen in the settings menu. (It will still record messages, just not play them out loud.) Another way to achieve this is to turn on Silent Mode, which also turns off the ringer. A nice feature is you can set Silent Mode indefinitely or for 1-9 hours, so if you're having a party you won't have to remember to turn the ringer back on later.

The "Silent Mode" allows you to select a period of time during which the handset/s will not ring for outside calls. Silent Mode can be set for each handset. I got this from the operating instructions, but I have not yet used this feature.

Yes, it does cover the silence but so what I did was turned it on from settings so I can access the silence button from the touch screen. Go to Settings, General , accessibility then assistive touch and push it on instead of off. From there, I was able to turn use my silence button
