Advanced – PSTN Environment Adjustment
PSTN Environment Adjustment options will help you to adjust the onhook and offhook voltage
detection values for your environment. You should use these if the default values are incorrect and
result in PSTN calls not being detected properly, e.g. calls being terminated within 5 seconds of
being answered. The actual levels are determined by your environment including the number and
type of telephones used.
Note: ONHOOK means hung up.
To take your phone OFFHOOK, lift the receiver then press Hook/Flash until you hear your normal
PSTN dialtone, not your VoIP dialtone. Wait several seconds and then press Check Level.
You should check the OFFHOOK value for each telephone you have connected to this device. Set
the OFFHOOK voltage to the lowest setting registered for all your telephones, e.g. if your
telephones return values of 4, 5 and 7 then you should set your OFFHOOK voltage to 4.
Note: The detected values will not automatically be set by the Check Level function; you
must enter the lowest level detected after testing all your telephones.
