Custom Ring Tones
The 6800i series IP phones support up to eight custom ring tones. Administrators (and if enabled, users) can install ring
tones on the phone using the configuration files or the Web UI. Users can then simply select a ring tone on the phone or
the Web UI to use as their incoming call ring tone.
Administrators can install local WAV files using the phone’s Web UI under the Basic Settings > Custom Ringtones menu or
install WAV files located on an FTP, TFTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server by defining their location and filename in the respective
configuration file using the “custom ringtone N” parameter (where N = 1 to 8). For example, if the following parameters
are added to the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, or <mac>.cfg,
custom ringtone 1: ftp://192.168.0.50/beep.wav
custom ringtone 2: ftp://192.168.0.50/classic.wav
the phone will download both WAV files from the FTP server and store beep.wav in position 1 and classic.wav in position
2 on the phone.
Additionally, the “ringtone webui lock” parameter can be used to restrict Web UI custom ring tone installation function-
ality in the User Web UI (by defining the parameter as “1”) or restrict functionality in both the User and Administrator
Web UIs (by defining the parameter as “2”).
3. Select a value from the "Global Ring Tone" field.
Note:
See the “Ring Tone Settings Table” on page5-85 for valid values.
For per-line configuration:
4. In the "Ring Tone" section, select a line for which you want to set ring tone.
5. Select a value from the "LineN" field.
Note:
See the “Ring Tone Settings Table” on page5-85 for valid values.
6. Click Save Settings to save your changes.
Notes:
• Ring tones must be in .wav format. The IP phones support the following WAV file specifications:
– G.711 μ-law and a-law Codec
– 20 ms packet size
– Mono 8KHz
• Individual WAV files cannot exceed 1 MB in size (the total combined size of the eight WAV files cannot exceed 8 MB).
• Filenames must contain only ASCII characters.
Notes:
• If the filename of a WAV file defined using the “custom ringtone N” parameter matches the filename of an already
installed ring tone, the phone will compare hashes and only install if the hashes differ.
• Ring tones can be deleted from the phone by removing the respective “custom ringtone N” parameter from the con-
figuration file or by deleting through the Web UI.
• All custom ringtones will be deleted from the phone if a factory default is executed.
Note:
The “ringtone webui lock” parameter is disabled (i.e. the Custom Ringtone menu is available in both User and Admin-
istrator Web UIs) by default.
