SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 36 • FXO interface configuration

Note Use the battery-reversal disconnect signal with caution, and use only if the battery-reversal connect signal is also enabled.

Configuring how to detect an outgoing call is connected (optional)

An FXO interface has the following methods for verifying the connection of an outgoing call after the dialing has been completed:

•Detect battery reversal (if provided by the FXS switch)

•Detect the first tax pulse (if provided by the FXS switch)

Note Tax Impulse Signals: European telephone companies in Austria, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Spain and Switzerland place a pulse signal on the phone line to meter the length of the telephone call for billing purposes.

The command to enable or disable these methods is connect-signal. If both are enabled, only one needs to occur for the FXO interface to verify a properly connected call with the remote party. Should both be disabled, the SmartNode waits for the call-connect signal from the FXS switch.
