Types of Ring Patterns
Your telephone company will assign a distinctive ring pattern to each
number when you order the DRP service. The setting you make with the
following procedure must match the setting assigned by the telephone
company.
You can set the MultiPASS C3000 for the following ring patterns:
❍ Normal ringRing type of normal telephone line
(Recommended for voice calls.)
❍ Double ringTwo short rings at regular intervals
(Recommended for fax calls)
❍ Triple ringShort-short-long at regular intervals
❍ Triple ringShort-long-short at regular intervals
❍ Other ring typePatterns other than those described above
You set the DRPD Switch Options in the Advanced: Receive Fax dialog
box (see page 8-10 for details).
You must set all DRPD ring numbers in the MultiPASS C3000. You
select the ring pattern and then specify whether the pattern is for
telephone calls, faxes, or both (fax/tel switching). See the next section
for details.
How DRPD Responds to Calls
When there is an incoming call, the MultiPASS C3000 checks the
incoming ring pattern and determines the type of pattern being
received. The MultiPASS C3000 may require up to 10 seconds to
determine the pattern type. During this time, any telephone device
connected to the MultiPASS C3000 will not ring if Silent Receive is
enabled. After the pattern is detected, the MultiPASS C3000 reacts
according to how you registered the setting.
