LINESHARE MASTER-4, LINESHARE RACK
4. Using the Lineshare Master-4
4.1 Setting the Calling Tones
By dialing the * key and one of the
eight allowable digits at the end of a
phone number, you can set the
Lineshare Master-4 to produce the
following tones:
0 = 1000hz tone
1 = 1100hz tone (typically fax
CNG tone)
2 = 1200hz tone
3 = 1300hz tone
4 = 1400hz tone
5 = 1500hz tone
6 = 1600hz tone
9 = 2225hz tone (typically reverse
modem tone)
The factory setting is 2225hz with
the unit turned on.
If all calls from this system are to
transmit the same calling tone, it is
not necessary to enter the * after
each telephone number. The
Lineshare Master-4 retains the
previous command in memory and
will send the same tone on every call.
If power fails, the Lineshare Master-4
will maintain the previous settings
once power is restored.
When a device dials a tone phone
number through the Lineshare
Master-4, the unit starts a two-second
timer each time it detects a tone.
This continues until the two-second
timer expires without detecting a
tone. The Lineshare Master-4 then
places the calling device connected
to the unit on hold. It then begins to
transmit a series of calling tones (the
frequency of the tone depends on
user settings). If the Lineshare
Master-4 detects an answer carrier
from a fax or modem, it immediately
stops transmitting the calling tones
and releases the line to the calling
device.
You can turn the Lineshare
Master-4 on or off using tone
commands. To turn the Lineshare
Master-4 on, press # *. Once you
enter the # * command, the
Lineshare Master-4’s timing registers
are activated. To turn the Lineshare
Master-4 off, press # #.
You can also use tone commands
in the following ways:
• to enter the programming mode
• to set calling tones
• to set timing registers
• to use the Call Hold Function
• to reset factory settings
