Defining additional call progress tones

In some cases, your circumstances might require that you assign more than one set of parameters for a certain call progress tone. For example, if the switch connected to the Message Networking system and the switch at the public telephone network office use different dial tone parameters, you might need to define both in the Message Networking system.

Use this procedure to set the frequencies and cadence the Message Networking system recognizes for additional call progress tones. As many as three additional tones can be specified as either a busy tone, dial tone, reorder tone, or ring tone. As for the basic tones, each additional tone is made up of one or two frequencies and consists of a series of on and off timing cycles (cadence). Unlike the basic tones (Dial, Busy or Reorder), you cannot set any additional tone to be recognized as a disconnect signal.

To define additional call progress tones on the Message Networking system:

  1. Start at the Administration menu, and select Switch Administration > Tones Administration.
    The Tones Administration page displays the current tone settings for the selected switch.
  2. Select one of the undefined tones:
    • First Add Tone
    • Second Add Tone
    • Third Add Tone

    The page for the selected tone displays.

  3. Enter the appropriate values in the Frequency fields. You can click the field names or Help on the Web-based administration page to view more information.
  4. Type the tone name in the Report as: field that corresponds to the additional basic tone you are defining. For example, if you are defining an additional dial tone, type dial.
  5. Click Capture.
    Note: If you have not already configured the tone capture settings, the capture settings display.
    The Opcodes and Channels for the selected tone displays.
  6. Select the appropriate Opcodes and Channels. You can click the field names or Help on the Web-based administration page to view more information.
  7. Click Capture and Analysis.
  8. Click Save.
    The system displays a message that the changes have been made and for you to stop and start the messaging system to accept the page settings.
  9. Click OK.
  10. Stop and start the voice system for the changes to take effect.
