Ring the changes and have rang the changes

01] You can ring the changes on the existing course material. 02br
02br
00The above is on a school's language course. 02br
02br
02br
02br
00Now they have made some changes. I saw it in the prospectus. 02br
02br
00So I could write the following. 02br
02br
002] You have rang the changes on the existing course material. 02br
02br
02br
00Is the second sentence fine? I know the words 'ring the changes on something' . 02br
02br
00Would it be correct to say 'have rang the changes'? 02br
00 You might not write the present perfect tense with the words 'ring the changes' on something. 02br
02br
00Your thoughts, please. 0-
