    Telephone Line Emulator User’s Manual CAS/Dual Tone Alerting The CPE Alerting Sequence (CAS) tone is an Alerting Signal sent down the telephone line to inform CPE that a CIDCW/SCWID message is waiting. This CAS tone is sent after the SAS tone and will wait for a DTMF ACKnowledgement before transmitting CID data. The CAS tone is programmable as Disabled, Single Tone, Tone 1 + Tone 2 or Tone 1 x Tone 2.
  • Page 91 The Information Code may be programmed to be any combination from 00 to 99. Currently Sweden uses 00 and 10 in their standard (see details below), with the balance reserved for future use. Any of the above modes may be overridden by dialing the prefix code ∗67 or ∗87 (default values) prior to the destination number.
