CallCommandSignalMethod Select the method to signal a command to the OBi when
the phone is off-hook with an active call in connected
state, while there is a second call on hold or ringing. The
two choices are:
- N. America (uses hook switch events only)
- Nordic Regions (R1, R2, …),
where R = hook flash or the ‘R’ button,
R0 = Reject the 2nd incoming call (applicable only if the
2
nd
call is ringing),
R1 = End current call, resume/answer the 2
nd
call
R2 = Hold current call, resume/answer the 2
nd
call
R3 = Conference the two calls
R4 = Transfer 2
nd
call peer to the 1
st
(not applicable if 2
nd
call is ringing)
N. America
HookFlashHandling Indicate the Method to Handle Hook Flash. Choices are
Handle Hook Flash Locally
This is the normal setting, where the device intercepts all
the hook flash events detected on the PHONE port, and
acts on them accordingly, such as:
- Hold current call and start second dial tone for 3-way
calls
- Start a 3-way conference
- End call with 2
nd
conferencee in a 3-way conference
- Swap between two calls in a call-waiting situation
Send Hook Flash Signal to PSTN
Device does not act on hook flash events detected on the
PHONE port. It either ignores hook flash events OR
regenerates similar hook flash events on the PSTN line if
the phone user is currently in a call using the PSTN line
service when the hook flash event happens. This option
may be useful in cases where the user has traditional call-
waiting or 3-way calling services on his PSTN line service;
hence he can control those PSTN supplementary services
using hook flash signals. However, the OBi in this case
would automatically disables its own call-waiting function
on the PHONE port, and the user would have no means to
tell OBi to make 3-way calls.
Note that an alternative way to let OBi generate a hook
flash signal to the PSTN line is to use a double hook flash
event by hook flashing twice within 700 ms. See the
description of the parameter EnableDoubleHookFlash in
this table. With this enabled, you can still let the device
handle normal hook flash event locally and preserve the
call-waiting and 3-way calling functionalities.
This option is only available in OBi110 and units with an
OBiLINE USB to FXO adapter accessory attached
Handle Hook Flash Locally
CallerIDEnable Enable Caller ID Signal generation. This option can be set
to Yes even if the attached phone is not capable of
displaying Caller ID. There is no harm in sending Caller ID
signal while the phone is in the on hook state. Yes
