Incoming call timeout
Some residents forget to end a call. In other words, some users answer calls, but when the
conversation ends and the person at the other end puts the telephone down, they forget to end
the call using the Cancel key.
To address this problem Lifeline 4000 can be made to end a call after a period of time. However,
you should note that Lifeline will not do this sensitively—it will cut off any incoming call once the
time limit entered into parameter 170 is exceeded, regardless of whether the conversation is still
in full flow.
The time period allowed for an incoming call can be set in hours and minutes. If parameter
170 is set to 0000 then there will be no call timeout.
