Ring connected telephone only once on an incoming call

I have a service profile configured on my OBi202 that is used as a dedicated fax line. I have a telephone connected to this line as well.

I don't always have my computer configured to receive faxes; I send more faxes than I receive them, so the modem won't always answer incoming calls. What I would like is for my OBi202 to only ring the connected telephone once (just enough to alert me of an incoming call on the fax line) then continue ringing silently. I don't need the telephone ringing more than once. Is there a way to do this?

Ring patterns are found here:
Ring Settings -> Ring Profile A/B

The default ring pattern is to ring for 2 seconds, silence for 4 and repeat for 60 seconds:
60;(2+4)

Change one of the patterns to ring for 2 seconds and silence for 58:
60;(2+58)

Point to the new pattern
Voice Services -> SPx Service
X_RingProfile
X_DefaultRing

Use OBi Expert to make changes.
