CALL INTERVAL CONFIGURATION ELEMENTS

MINIMUM TIME INTERVAL

The configured call interval is the minimum time between call attempts. The system will not make a call attempt in less than the configured call attempt value. However, due to the system hardware clock resolution, the actual time interval may be greater than the configured value. The default value is 0.70 seconds. The range of the configured value is 0 to 5 seconds, in 1/100 second increments. A configured value of 0 implies that the system will make call attempts without any delay between them.

CALL INTERVAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION

This parameter allows the configuration of the minimum interval between call attempts. This interval applies to the entire system, including all lines, sites, and devices.

The Call Interval is configured in terms of hundredths of seconds. The default value is .7 seconds. The range of the configured value is 0 to 5 seconds. A configured value of 0 implies that the system will make call attempts without any delay between them.

The default value of .7 seconds is compliant with the Communications Industries Association of Japan’s(CIAJ) regulation. This regulation states that no customer premise equipment should make more than 3 call attempts within 2 seconds. This prevents certain model switches from being overloaded. In areas where these low capacity switches are not installed, calls can be made more frequently.

Before the system initiates a data connection, it first checks the time at which the last connection was initiated. If the time from the last connection attempt to the new connection attempt is less than the configured call interval, the new connection is placed on an outgoing call queue. The queue is then serviced at the configured call interval.
