By using the Ring Cadence window, you can set up to 8 distinct ring patterns. The ring pattern of each distinct ring can be configured by setting the On and Off time. The amount of times that the ring pattern will repeat itself can also be set.
Duration | This field is used to limit the amount of times that the ring |
| pattern will repeat itself. For example, if a ring pattern is set for |
| 16 seconds and the duration is set for 60000 ms, then the ring |
| pattern will repeat itself 3 times; then, 3 quarters of the way |
| through the fourth repetition, the ringing will stop. The default |
| value is 180000 ms. |
Ring on Ring off | One ring pattern is comprised of four rings and four periods of |
| silence. The On field refers to the time of 1 ring. The Off time |
| refers to the period of silence between rings. One unit of time in |
| the On and Off fields is equal to 50 ms; so a value of 40 in the |
| On field sets a 2000 ms ring (2 seconds). The sum of all the |
| fields must be less than or equal to 320 ms and must be a |
| multiple of 8. However, individual On and Off times don’t |
| necessarily have to be multiples of 8. A ring pattern could be |
32
