VOICE TONE MODULE (VTM)
SECTION 18 VOICE TONE MODULE (VTM)
18.1 DESCRIPTION
The Voice Tone Module (VTM) provides tone
and voice message to modules that indicate call
progress to the users.
The VTM contains 8-fixed slots of digitized
PCM audio messages stored in PROMs that are 4
seconds in length and repeat continuously on the VTM
PCM bus of the Switch (see Table 18-3). The start of
the message is indicated in the transmission so
modules can present the audio message to the user
from the beginning of the message. There may be up
to four VTMs within a system, depending upon the
messages required.

No alignment is required for the VTM to operate
in the system. However, panel jack output level is
adjustable. The S1 switch setting must be correct for
the starting slot number. Use S2 to select a voice or
tone message.
1. Insert a "butt-set" in the front panel jack.
2. Adjust R22 for a comfortable listening level.
3. If a tone is selected, set the level at TP1, 9 dB lower
than the level on U24, pin 2 for the proper level to
the "butt-set".
NOTE: Revision 2 or earlier should have the line from
P1, pin 1 to R25 cut. Revision 3 or later should have
Jumper on -pin 1 only.
