Chapter 4 Configuring Settings on the Cisco Unified IP Phones
Device Configuration Menu
Recording Tone Indicates whether a recording tone (often
referred to as a beep tone) is enabled or disabled
for the phone. If the recording tone option is
enabled, the phone plays the beep tone in both
directions of every call, regardless of whether
the call actually gets recorded. The beep tone
first sounds when a call is answered.
You may want to notify your users if you enable
this option.
Default: Disabled
Related Parameters:
• Recording Tone Local Volume
• Recording Tone Remote Volume
• Recording Tone Duration
Note Other related parameters—Beep tone
frequency in hz, the length of the beep
tone (called duration), and how often
the beep tone plays (called
interval)—are defined on a
per-Network Locale basis in the xml file
that defines tones. This xml file is
usually named tones.xml or
g3-tones.xml.
From Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration, choose Device
