CK Electric Part C3000 manual Types of Ring Patterns, How Drpd Responds to Calls

Types of Ring Patterns

Your telephone company will assign a distinctive ring pattern to each number when you order the DRP service. The setting you make with the following procedure must match the setting assigned by the telephone company.

You can set the MultiPASS C3000 for the following ring patterns:

❍Normal ring—Ring type of normal telephone line (Recommended for voice calls.)

❍Double ring—Two short rings at regular intervals (Recommended for fax calls)

❍Triple ring—Short-short-long at regular intervals

❍Triple ring—Short-long-short at regular intervals

❍Other ring type—Patterns other than those described above

You set the DRPD Switch Options in the Advanced: Receive Fax dialog box (see page 8-10 for details).

You must set all DRPD ring numbers in the MultiPASS C3000. You select the ring pattern and then specify whether the pattern is for telephone calls, faxes, or both (fax/tel switching). See the next section for details.

How DRPD Responds to Calls

When there is an incoming call, the MultiPASS C3000 checks the incoming ring pattern and determines the type of pattern being received. The MultiPASS C3000 may require up to 10 seconds to determine the pattern type. During this time, any telephone device connected to the MultiPASS C3000 will not ring if Silent Receive is enabled. After the pattern is detected, the MultiPASS C3000 reacts according to how you registered the setting.
