Title: Help needed for converting tone notation from Lynksys to OBI
Post by: larrybob on December 07, 2011, 10:17:54 AM
I have the specifications for a dial tone want to use with the OBI but could only find it in a Linksys document.
How would I express this in OBi notation? thanks Larry
Dial tone: 425@-16,425@-16,450@-16;10(*/0/1+2+3)

 I did some more research and think i can answer my own question, I found this reference describing  a linksys tone.
For example, the default dial tone (USA) looks like:

    350@-19,440@-19;10(*/0/1+2)

This means:

    Frequency 1 is 350 Hz @ -19 dBm
    Frequency 2 is 440 Hz @ -19 dBm
    There is one Cadence section.
        It is 10 seconds long.
        It is on "forever" (that's what the star is), it is never off (that's what zero means here), and it plays both tones 1 and 2.


I think this would be the translation of my question in the originating post?


425-16,425-16,450-16;10
dial tone generated from three frequencies
425hz at -16db
425hz at -16db
450hz at -16db
The expiration time is 10 seconds
it has only one cadence segment, which has infinite tone active time.
