Locally generated ring tone at start of call

(1/2) > >>

theboy:
2nd post, this is the other problem I'm having with the OBi110 that I'm purely using as an FXO and FXS port to my Asterisk.

When using the FXO port through Asterisk, when the call initially starts, I seem to one burst of what sounds like locally generated ringtone, before going on to the Telco's ring tone.  This is a bit of an issue as some numbers hear in the UK connect immediately and start playing messages, and I miss the first 2 seconds - for example, 1471 plays the number of last caller, but due to the locally generated ring burst, I miss the first 3 digits.  As this doesn't happen with the Cisco SPA3102 device the OBi is replacing, I'm guessing this is an OBi setting, not Asterisk?

WelshPaul:
Are you using the UK XML configuration file? Or is the OBi device running on it's default tone values?

theboy:
I used the UK localisation XML file from the downloads page.

Its just annoying that you get this 2 secs of locally generated ring tone before it connects you, so you miss that first second or so of any automated service you call.

That's exactly what you are hearing. It's a sort of confidence tone to reassure the user that the call is being connected. It is a function of this setting:

Line Port > Line Port > DetectOutboundConnectMethod: Assume connected after a short delay

Changing to this setting should remove the local ring tone:

Line Port > Line Port > DetectOutboundConnectMethod: None

ianobi - perfect, that's removed that annoyance!

Thank you very, very much  :)
