Description
This parameter allows you to specif y whic h low-bit-rate codecs are available. Th e Ci sco ATA is capable of supporting two G.723.1 connections or one G.729 connection. When G.723.1 is selected as the low-bit-rate codec, each FXS port is allocated with one G.723.1 connection. When G.729 is selected, only one FXS port is capable of operating with the G.729 codec. The allocation of the G.729 resource to the FXS port is dynamic. The G.729 resource, if available, is allocated to an FXS port when a call is initiated or received; the resource is released when a call is completed.
The following values are valid:
0—Select G.723.1 as the low-bit-rate codec.
OL-4008-01

About Dial Plan Commands

The following list contains rules for Cisco ATA dial plans:
• . —Wildcard, match any digit entered.
• - —Additional digits can be entered. This command can be used only at the end of a dial plan rule
(for example, 1408t5- is legal usage of the - command, but 1408t5-3... is illegal).
>#—Defines the # character as a termination character. When the termination character is entered,
the dial string is automatically sent. The termination character can be entered only after at least one user-entered digit matches a dial plan rule. Alternatively, the command >* can be used to define * as the termination character.
tn— Defines the timeout v alue n, in the unit of seconds, for the interdigit timer. V a lid value s are 0-9 and
a-z, where a-z indicates a range of 10 to 36.
rn—Repeat the last pattern n times, where n is 0-9 or a-z. The values a-z indicate a range of 10 to
36. Use the repeat modifier to specify more rules in less space.
Note The commands ># and tn are modifiers, not patterns, and are ignored by the rn command.
Chapter 5 Parameters and Defaults
|—Used to separate multiple dial plan rules.
^—Logical not. Match any character except the character immediately following the ^ command.
S—Seize rule matching. If a dial plan rule matches the sequence of digits entered by the user to this
point, and the modifier S is the next command in the dial plan rule, all other rules are negated for the remainder of the call (for example, a dial plan beginning with *S will be the only one in effect if the user first enters the * key).
Note All rules apply in the order listed (whichever rule is completely matched first will immediately send the
dial string).
Note No syntax check is performed by the actual implementation. The administrator has the responsibility of
making sure that the dial plan is syntactically valid.
Dial Plan Example 1 (Default Dial Plan)
The following dial plan:
*St4-|#St4-|911|1>#t8.r9t2-|0>#t811.rat4-|^1t4>#.-
consists of the following rules:
*St4-—If the first digit entered is *, all other dial plan rules are voided. Additional digits can be
entered after the initial * digit, and the timeout before automatic dial string send is four second s.
5-38
#St4—Same as above, except with # as the initial digit entered.

Dial Plan Blocking (In Rule)

Dial plan blocking can be used to reduce the occurrences of invalid dialed digits being sent and can prevent the dialed string of a specified pattern from being sent. By adding dial plan blocking, dialed digits are discarded after the interdigit timer expires unless one of the specified matching rules is met.
In addition, the default nine-second global interdigit timeout value is also modified with the value specified in the dial plan blocking command:
In
where n specifies the global interdigit timeout and the valid values are 1-9 and a-z (10-35).

Optional Feature Parameters
For example, to enter an interdigit ti meout of 12 seconds and di scard dialed digits unless 9 11 is entered, you would use the following command:
Ic| 911
Specifying your own interdigit timeout also changes the behavior of the dial plan so that the entire dial string, rather than being sent at timeout, is sent only as a result o f a matching rule or time intended by a matching rule.

'H' Rule to Support Hotline/Warmline

Hotline/Warmline, also known as Private Line Automatic Ringdown (PLAR), is a line used for priority telephone service. If the Hotline feature is configured, the Cisco ATA immediately dials a pre-configured number as soon as the handset goes off hook. If the Warmline feature is configured, the Cisco ATA dials a pre-configured number if no digits were entered before the specified timer value expired when the handset went off hook.
Syntax
Hdnnnn
where d is a delay-in-seconds parameter 0-9,a-z (to support 0 to 35 seconds delay), and nnnn is the variable-length phone number to cal l when no di gits ar e entered for d seconds after the handset goes of f hook.
Chapter 5 Parameters and Defaults
Example 1: H05551212 (Hotline configuration; the Cisco ATA immediately dials 555-1212 when the
handset goes off hook.)
Example 2: H55551212 (Warmline configuration; the Cisco ATA waits for five seconds and dials
555-1212 if no digits were entered when the handset went off hook.)

'P' Rule to Support Dial Prefix

This rule is for automatic pre-p ending the dial string as ente red by the user with a specified prefix.
Syntax
Ptnnnn where t is a single leading trigger character; if t is the first entered digit when making a new call, it
triggers the prepending of a variable-length prefix (as specified by nnnn) in the dial string. The t character can take one of the following values:
0-9,*,#, 'n' (= any of 1-9), 'N' (any of 'n' and 0), 'a' (any of 'n',* and #), or 'A' (any of 'a' and 0);
Example:
Pn12345: Prepends 12345 to the dial string when the f irst ent ered digit is an y of 1-9. The tri ggered digit is not removed from the dial string .

Tone Parameter Syntax

Each tone is specified by nine integers, as follows:
ntone, freq0, freq1, level0, level1, steady, on-time, off-time, total-tone-time
ntone is the number of frequency components (0, 1 or 2).
freq[0] (Hz) is the transformed frequency of the first frequency component (-32768 to 32767).
Note Only positive v alues can be conf igured to the Cisco ATA 186. For negati ve values, u se the 16-bit
freq[1] is the transformed frequency of the second frequency component (-32768 to 32767).
level[0] is the transformed amplitude of the first frequency component (-32768 to 32767).
level[1] is the transformed amplitude of the second frequency component (-32768 to 32767).
steady controls whether the tone is constant or intermitt ent. A v alue of 1 indi cates a steady ton e and
causes the Cisco ATA to ignore the on-time and of f-time parameters. A v alue of 0 indicates an on/o ff tone pattern and causes the Cisco ATA to use the on-time and off-time parameters.
on-time controls the length of time the tone is heard in milliseconds (ms) expressed as an integer
from 0 to 0xffff sample at 8000 samples/second.
2’s-complement value. For example, enter -1 as 65535 or 0xffff.

off-time controls the length of time between audible tones in milliseconds (ms) expressed as an
total-tone-time controls the length of time the tone is audible (0 to 0xffff). If this value is set to 0,

the tone will play until another call event stops the tone. For DialTone, B usyTone, ReorderTone, and RingBackTone, the configurable value is the number of 10 ms (100 = 1 second) units.
For the other tones, the val ue is the number of samples at 8000 samples/second, where the fol lowing information applies:
Frequency ranges from 0 to 4000 (Hz)
Transformed Frequency = 32767 · cos (2pi·Frequency/8000)
Amplitude ranges from 0 to 32767
Transformed Amplitude = A · 32767 · sin (2pi·Frequency/8000)
The scaling factor A determines the volume level of the tone. To calculate scaling factors, see the
“How to Calculate Scaling Factors” section on page 5-42.

How to Calculate Scaling Factors

Use the following formula to calculate the scaling factor A: A=0.5 * 10^
((k+10-(n-1)*3)/20)
In this formula, k is the desirable volume in dBm; n is the number of frequency components. The ^ symbol means to the order of.
Example
If a one-frequency component of -20 dBm volume level is desirable, then: A=0.5 * 10^
((-20+10)/20)
