OBi110 delay on inbound pstn ringing phone

(1/2) > >>

Clive:
Hi, have been through the forum and don't see this anywhere so here goes.

With the OBi110 connected to pstn for inbound calls, there is around a 15 second delay before the phone connected to the OBi starts ringing. The caller can hear the ring tone during this time but the phone isn't ringing.

Any ideas please.

Felix:
if during these 15 seconds you check the adapter status (Status - Call status), does it say "Ringing". In other words, does the adapter not getting the call, or the adapter not passing the call to the phone, or the phone is not ringing as it should...

That could lead you to the next steps - whether the problem is with the device or with the service.

Clive:
Hi Felix, thanks for your response.
It does not show the phone as ringing until it actually does.
If I use the adapter as the endpoint rather than passing the call through it then there is no delay.

I've just found on one of RonRs posts that there is a ring delay on the line, it's set to 4000 by default in my OBi. Would this have any bearing on it.

hwittenb:
I don't think the delay is 15 seconds, but as Clive said there is an intentional 4-second delay setup.  The Line Port on the OBi110 has a RingDelay default setting of 4 seconds (4000 ms) to capture the incoming caller id.  If you don't care about the incoming caller id you can set that delay to 0 seconds.  If it is set to less than 4 seconds the OBi doesn't get the caller id decoded.

Clive:
Thanks for the feedback hwittenb.

Perhaps I need to clarify this a little more to avoid confusion. I'm ringing my landline from my mobile (cell) phone.

When routing my landline through the OBi line socket, the delay between hearing ring tone in my ear and the phone ringing is 3 ring cycles. Each ring cycle is approx 4-5 seconds. If it was 4 seconds it would be just 1 ring cycle.

Do the impedance and voltage settings have any bearing on this, if so I need the settings for Spain pls.
