Types of Ring Patterns

Your telephone company will assign a distinctive ring pattern to each

number when you order the DRP service. The setting you make with the

following procedure must match the setting assigned by the telephone

company.

You can set the MultiPASS C3000 for the following ring patterns:

Normal ring—Ring type of normal telephone line

(Recommended for voice calls.)

Double ring—Two short rings at regular intervals

(Recommended for fax calls)

Triple ring—Short-short-long at regular intervals

Triple ring—Short-long-short at regular intervals

Other ring type—Patterns other than those described above

You set the DRPD Switch Options in the Advanced: Receive Fax dialog

box (see page 8-10 for details).

You must set all DRPD ring numbers in the MultiPASS C3000. You

select the ring pattern and then specify whether the pattern is for

telephone calls, faxes, or both (fax/tel switching). See the next section

for details.

How DRPD Responds to Calls

When there is an incoming call, the MultiPASS C3000 checks the

incoming ring pattern and determines the type of pattern being

received. The MultiPASS C3000 may require up to 10 seconds to

determine the pattern type. During this time, any telephone device

connected to the MultiPASS C3000 will not ring if Silent Receive is

enabled. After the pattern is detected, the MultiPASS C3000 reacts

according to how you registered the setting.
