Mitel 6800 Series SIP Phone Release 4.2.0 Administrator Guide

RING TONE VIA SPEAKER DURING ACTIVE CALLS

The parameter "ring audibly enable" can be used to configure the IP phones to play the ring
tone of an incoming call via the phone's speaker while in an active call.
With the parameter enabled, if a user is in an active call on an extension, and the phone receives
a call for the same or different extension, the incoming call will be represented by the call's ring
tone being played through the speaker as well as the respective line's LED flashing (if available).
If a user is in the process of dialing out to a remote number (either for an initial call or to initiate
a conference or transfer) a call for the same or different extension, the call waiting tone will be
played. The ring tone will be played when the phone exits the dialing state and transitions to
the outgoing state.
When the phone exits the incoming ringing state (e.g. the incoming call is answered), the tone
device of the phone will revert back to originally configured audio device.
Notes:
1. The "ring audibly enable" parameter is disabled by default.
2. This feature is not supported when utilizing the headset audio mode.
3. With this feature enabled and when the phone's speaker is playing the incoming
call's ring tone, call-waiting tones will not be played.
CONFIGURING THE RING TONE VIA SPEAKER DURING ACTIVE CALLS
FEATURE
Use the following procedures to configure the ring tone via speaker during active calls feature.
CONFIGURATION FILES
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section,
Tone via Speaker During Active Calls Settings"
NO SERVICE CONGESTION TONE
Administrators can configure the IP phones to play a congestion/fast busy tone instead of a
dial tone when the phone is in a "No Service" state. This feature allows visually impaired persons
the ability to discern whether or not the phone is in service and can be used to send/receive calls.
The configuration parameter "no service congestion tone" allows administrators the ability
to enable this accessibility feature. When enabled, the congestion tone will replace the
conventional dial tone when the handset is off hook, a headset is employed, or the
speakerphone is engaged. The congestion tone's frequency/pattern is based on the respective
phone's configured tone set. Additionally, the congestion tone is played on a per-line basis
whereby only the specific lines that are without service are affected.
Note: If the phone or individual lines are configured to have no registration by intent
(e.g. if the Registrar is set to 0.0.0.0) enabling the "no service congestion tone"
parameter will have no effect and the default dial tone will be played.
