To create custom phone rings for the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone 7985, follow
these steps:
Procedure
Create a PCM file for each custom ring (one ring per file). Ensure the PCM files
comply with the format guidelines that are listed in the
for Custom Ring Types" section on page
Place the new PCM files that you created in the C:\Program Files\Cisco\
TFTPPath directory on the Cisco TFTP server for each Cisco
Unified CallManager in your cluster.
Use an text editor to edit the RingList.xml file. See the
Requirements" section on page 6-2
and for a sample RingList.xml file.
Save your modifications and close the RingList.xml file.
To cache the new RingList.xml file, stop and start the TFTP service by using
Cisco Unified CallManager Serviceability or disable and re-enable the "Enable
Caching of Constant and Bin Files at Startup" TFTP service parameter (located in
the Advanced Service Parameters).
You can provide users with a choice of background images for the LCD screen on
their phones. Users can select a background image by choosing Settings > User
Preferences > Background Images on the phone.
The image choices that users see come from PNG images and an XML file (called
List.xml) that are stored on the TFTP server used by the phone. By storing your
own PNG files and editing the XML file on the TFTP server, you can designate
the background images from which users can choose. In this way, you can provide
custom images, such as your company logo.
The following sections describe how you can customize the background images
that are available at your site by creating your own PNG files and editing the
List.xml file:
