Description
Private Key
Passphrase
The RTU’s assigned private key passphrase. Leave this field blank
if a private key certificate is not provided or does not require a
passphrase.

This field must be left blank if a CA certificate is not provided or if it is
desired to not validate the server certificate.

the specified interval.

Relay 2

Pretone
The Pretone feature allows a prerecorded digital voice message to be
played at the start of an incoming SIP or Multicast session before live
audio begins. Typically, this is used to gain attention before speaking.
While the Pretone is playing, up to 30 seconds of public address
audio will be buffered and play out after the Pretone message.
It is good practice to limit the duration of Pretone messages to
3-5 seconds. To enable Pretone, select a digital voice message from
the dropdown list. To disable, select None (default setting).
When making an announcement with the Pretone feature, users
should make a call, wait approximately one second for the call to
be established, make the announcement, and then hang up. The
Pretone will play followed by the announcement.
