18 Voice API Programming Guide — June 2005
Product Description
In addition to original Springware products (also known as earlier-generation products), the R4
API supports a new generation of hardware products that are based on the DM3 mediastream
architecture. Feature differences between these two categories of products are noted.
DM3 boards is a collective name used in this document to refer to products that are based on the
DM3 mediastream architecture. DM3 board names typically are prefaced with “DM,” such as the
Intel NetStructure
®
DM/V2400A. Springware boards refer to boards based on earlier-generation
architecture. Springware boards typically are prefaced with “D,” such as the Intel
®
Dialogic
®
D/240JCT-T1.
In this document, the term voice API is used to refer to the R4 voice API.
1.3 Call Progress Analysis
Call progress analysis monitors the progress of an outbound call after it is dialed into the Public
Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).
There are two forms of call progress analysis: basic and PerfectCall. PerfectCall call progress
analysis uses an improved method of signal identification and can detect fax machines and
answering machines. Basic call progress analysis provides backward compatibility for older
applications written before PerfectCall call progress analysis became available.
Note: PerfectCall call progress analysis was formerly called enhanced call analysis.
See Chapter 7, “Call Progress Analysis” for detailed information about this feature.
1.4 Tone Generation and Detection Features
In addition to DTMF and MF tone detection and generation, the following signaling features are
provided by the voice library:
• Global Tone Detection (GTD)
• Global Tone Generation (GTG)
• Cadenced Tone Generation
1.4.1 Global Tone Detection (GTD)
Global tone detection allows you to define single- or dual-frequency tones for detection on a
channel-by-channel basis. Global tone detection and GTD tones are also known as user-defined
tone detection and user-defined tones.
Use global tone detection to detect single- or dual-frequency tones outside the standard DTMF
range of 0-9, a-d, *, and #. The characteristics of a tone can be defined and tone detection can be
enabled using GTD functions and data structures provided in the voice library.
