Parameter Function Values
NUM_OF_RETRIES
Used to control the number of dialing
retries.
This parameter applies to both the
primary and the alternate number.
If the call is not established after
dialing the primary directory number
for the specified number of times,
FCD-E1 attempts to establish the call
by dialing the alternate directory
number (provided the use of an
alternate number is enabled by
means of the ALT_NUM_MODE
parameter).
If the call cannot be established
within the specified number of
redialing attempts on neither of the
two directory numbers, FCD-E1 stops
the call attempts. When a new alarm
report must be sent, the call attempts
are started again. The user is notified
that the call attempts failed by a
message recorded in the alarm buffer
(separate messages are provided for
each directory number).
0 – no redialing attempts are made in
case the call is not established on the
first attempt.

number of times.
