Crazy Ring patterns, Callerid always shows out of area for all calls?

Ring patterns have been discussed many times on this forum. Each SP has a choice of ten different ring patterns. This post explains how to change them:

Thank you for pointing out the thread but seems to me a factory default unit would have a standard ring pattern for SP1 and I have never changed it. I did check it following: Ring Pattern 1, Ringname= Bellcore-dr1, RingPattern- 60;(2+4) which I believe is 2 seconds on, 4 seconds off or a standard ring.

2) Every call that comes into the SP1 number show out of area
Change the following to be: Show Caller Number
Physical Interfaces -> Phone1 Port -> CidNoNameFormat:
You can only access this parameter from the local web GUI. (***1 from OBi phone to get ip address)
Default password for both User Name & Password is: admin
You must uncheck the box to the right of the field in order to edit the parm.
I changed the entry to: None, that got rid of the "out of area" which is great, now is there anyway to dump the 1 and local area code in the display for calls within my area. I do not live in an area where it is manditory to dial an area code to get a local number. Thanks for your help!

I must say I get the weebee geebies making changes to these fields, since I really dont know exactly what I am doing I dont want to break the thing. Thanks to all who take the time to help those NOT in the know!

Yes, that is the standard North American ring pattern. That leaves two possibilities:
1. The OBi is faulty.
2. The phone / dect base unit etc plugged into the OBi Phone Port is causing the issue. Many phones and most dect base units can produce their own ring patterns without following the incoming ring pattern. Try a simple corded phone to test.
Out of interest, just what does the crazy ring pattern sound like?

This can be done, but you will have to be prepared to dive into expert settings. If you wish me to show you how, then please post what is in this setting:
Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute
