By using the Ring
Cadence window, you can
set up to 8 distinct ring
patterns. The ring pattern
of each distinct ring can
be configured by setting
the
On
and
Off
time. The
amount of times that the
ring pattern will repeat
itself can also be set.
Duration
This field is used to limit the amount of times that the ring
pattern will repeat itself. For example, if a ring pattern is set for
16 seconds and the duration is set for 60000 ms, then the ring
pattern will repeat itself 3 times; then, 3 quarters of the way
through the fourth repetition, the ringing will stop. The default
value is 180000 ms.
Ring on Ring off
One ring pattern is comprised of four rings and four periods of
silence. The
On
field refers to the time of 1 ring. The
Off
time
refers to the period of silence between rings. One unit of time in
the
On
and
Off
fields is equal to 50 ms; so a value of 40 in the
On
field sets a 2000 ms ring (2 seconds). The sum of all the
fields must be less than or equal to 320 ms and must be a
multiple of 8. However, individual
On
and
Off
times don’t
necessarily have to be multiples of 8. A ring pattern could be
32
