Call Progress Tones

The ATA has configurable call progress tones. Call progress tones are generated
locally on the ATA, so an end user is advised of status (such as ringback).
Parameters for each type of tone (for instance a dial tone played back to an end
user) may include:
•
number of frequency components
•
frequency and amplitude of each component
•
cadence information.
When one VoIP account is shared between the FXS and PSTN Lines, the following
parameters are recommended to be set. See the Regional page in the
Field Reference," on page121
