Chapter 4 – Configuring Your MultiVOIP
70 MultiVOIP® Voice/Fax over IP Gateways
Setting Custom Tones and Cadences (optional). A secondary dialog box allows you to customize DTMF tone
pairs to create unique ring-tones, dial-tones, busy-tones or “unobtainable” tones or “re-order” tones or
“survivability” tones. This helps the user to specify tone-pair attributes that are not found in any of the standard
national/regional telephony toning schemes. To customize DTMF tone pairs, click Custom. The Custom button is
active only when Custom is selected in the Country/Region field.

Identifies the type of telephony signaling tone for which frequencies are being
specified.
Tone Pair Values
About Defaults: US telephony values are used as defaults on this window.
Frequency 1
Frequency in Hertz
Frequency of lower tone of pair.
This outbound tone pair enters the MultiVOIP at the input port.
Frequency 2
Frequency in Hertz
Frequency of higher tone of pair.
This outbound tone pair enters the MultiVOIP at the input port.
Gain 1
+3dB to –31dB
and “mute” setting
Amplification factor of lower frequency of pair. This figure describes amplification
that the MultiVOIP applies to outbound tones entering the MultiVOIP at the input
port. Default: -16dB
Gain 2
+3dB to –31dB
and “mute” setting
Amplification factor of higher frequency of pair. This figure describes
amplification that the MultiVOIP applies to outbound tones entering the
MultiVOIP at the input port. Default: -16dB
Cadence 1
integer time value in
milliseconds; zero value for dial-
tone indicates continuous tone
On/off pattern of tone durations used to denote phone ringing, phone busy, dial
tone (“0” indicates continuous tone) survivability and re-order. Cadence 1 is
duration of first period of tone being “on” in the cadence of the telephony signal.
Cadence 2
duration in milliseconds
Cadence 2 is duration of first “off” period in signaling cadence.
Cadence 3
duration in milliseconds
Cadence 3 is duration of second “on” period in signaling cadence.
Cadence 4
duration in milliseconds
Cadence 4 is duration of second “off” period in the signaling cadence.
