14.1 Description
The DigitDetector tool demonstrates the use of a DM3 board’s Tone Generator and Signal Detector
components. It provides the ability to detect digits at the local end of a channel connection.
14.2 Guidelines
DigitDetector is a QScript utility. For more information about QScript utilities, refer to Chapter 27,
“QScript Reference”.
To use the DigitDetector tool, you need a physical connection to the board. For example, two
network interface trunks can be looped or you might use a connection between end users. You can
then use the Phone tool at one end of the channel to generate dialed digits that can be detected by
the Digit Detector tool. For information about the Phone tool, refer to Chapter 25, “Phone
Reference”.
