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
set at 12, 12, 8, 4, 10, 50, 0, 0. While some of the On and Off
times are not multiples of 8, their sum of 96 meets the
requirement so this would be a valid ring pattern.
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.
