Auto Ringdown (Analog Only)

The Auto Ringdown setting operates in conjunction with Hoot and Holler. When Auto Ringdown (ARD) is enabled, and the line goes off-hook, the far end rings immediately. This function operates opposite of Auto Call where the call setup is delayed due to the time it takes to dial the far-end number. The connection between the two parties remains permanently up regardless of whether either party is talking or not or until both sides go on-hook.

Configuring ARD

Configuring ARD on the Master and Slave sides requires the following:

• The proper egress table entries should be made as detailed in Egress Table.
• Hoot and Holler should be configured as the Autocall Type as described in Configurator Procedure for Setting the Voice Switching Profile Parameters.
• Enable ARD using the following Configurator Procedure:

1. Select Configure, Voice, and Channels from the navigation window.



You will see the Voice Channels window:



2. Using the Card Slot column and the Channel Number column, identify the voice channel on which you would like to configure ARD.
3. Click on the number in the Switching Profile column that corresponds to the voice module identified in the previous step. The Voice Switching Profile window opens:



4. At Auto Ringdown, select Enable
5. Click Save. A "Command Successful" message appears.
