				Chapter 4: Configuring your VOIP
		“Regional Parameter” Definitions
Field Name	Values	Description
Country/Region	USA,	Name of a country or region that uses a certain set of tone pairs for dial tone, ring
	Japan,	tone, busy tone, unobtainable tone (fast busy tone), survivability tone (tone
	UK,	heard briefly, 2 seconds, after going off hook denoting survivable mode of VOIP
	Custom	unit), re-order tone (a tone pattern indicating the need for the user to hang up the
		phone), and intercept tone (a tone that warns an a party that has gone off hook but
		has not begun dialing, within a prescribed time, that an automatic emergency or
		attendant number will be called; the automatic call can be used to direct an
		attendant’s attention to a disabled or distressed caller, allowing an appropriate
		response to be made).
		In some cases, the tone-pair scheme denoted by a country name may also be used
		outside of that country. The “Custom” option (button) assures that any tone-pairing
		scheme worldwide can be accommodated.
		Note 1: Intercept tone is applicable only when the FXS telephony interface has
		been chosen in the Interface screen and when the AutoCall / OffHook Alert field is
		set to OffHook Alert in the Voice/Fax Parameters screen. The time allowed for
		dialing before the automatic calling process begins is set in the OffHook Alert Timer
		field of the Voice/Fax Parameters screen.
		Note 2: “Survivability” tone indicates a special type of call-routing redundancy &
		applies to MultiVantage VOIP units only
Advisory screen				This message screen appears whenever the
				Country field is changed. It informs the operator
				that, upon change of the Country field value, all
				User Defined Tones will be deleted.
Standard	Tones fields
Type column	dial tone,		Type of telephony tone-pair for which frequency, gain, and cadence are
	ring tone,		being presented.
	busy tone,
	unobtainable tone
	(fast busy),
	survivability tone,
	re-order tone
Frequency 1	freq. in Hertz		Lower frequency of pair.
Frequency 2	freq. in Hertz		Higher frequency of pair.
Gain 1	gain in dB		Amplification factor of lower frequency of pair.
	+3dB to –31dB		This applies to the dial, ring, busy and ‘unobtainable’ tones that the
	and “mute” setting		MultiVOIP outputs as audio to the FXS, FXS, or E&M port.
			Default: -16dB
Gain 2	gain in dB		Amplification factor of higher frequency of pair.
	+3dB to –31dB		This applies to the dial, ring, busy, and ‘unobtainable’ (fast busy) tones
	and “mute” setting		that the MultiVOIP outputs as audio to the FXS, FXO, or E&M port.
			Default: -16dB
Cadence	n/n/n/n		On/off pattern of tone durations used to denote phone ringing, phone
(ms) On/Off	four integer time		busy, connection unobtainable (fast busy), dial tone (“0” indicates
	values in		continuous tone), survivability, and re-order. Default values differ for
	milliseconds; zero		different countries/regions. Although most cadences have only two parts
	value for dial-tone		(an “on” duration and an “off” duration), some telephony cadences have
	indicates continuous		four parts. Most cadences, then, are expressed as two iterations of a
	tone		two-part sequence. Although this is redundant, it is necessary to allow
			for expression of 4-part cadences.
Custom (button)	--		Click on the “Custom” button to bring up the Custom Tone Pair
			Settings screen. (The “Custom” button is active only when “Custom” is
			selected in the Country/Region field.) This screen allows the user to
			specify tone pair attributes that are not found in any of the standard
			national/regional telephony toning schemes.
