The CiscoIPPhoneRingList XML object uses the following simple tag set to
describe the information:
<CiscoIPPhoneRingList>
<Ring>
<DisplayName/>
<FileName/>
</Ring>
</CiscoIPPhoneRingList>
The following characteristics apply to the definition names. You must include the
required DisplayName and FileName for each phone ring type.
• DisplayName defines the name of the custom ring for the associated PCM file
that will display on the Ring Type menu of the Cisco Unified IP Phone.
• FileName specifies the name of the PCM file for the custom ring to associate
with DisplayName.
The DisplayName and FileName fields must not exceed 25 characters.
This example shows a Ringlist.xml file that defines two phone ring types:
<CiscoIPPhoneRingList>
<Ring>
<DisplayName>Analog Synth 1</DisplayName>
<FileName>Analog1.raw</FileName>
</Ring>
<Ring>
<DisplayName>Analog Synth 2</DisplayName>
<FileName>Analog2.raw</FileName>
</Ring>
</CiscoIPPhoneRingList>
The PCM files for the rings must meet the following requirements for proper
playback on Cisco Unified IP Phones:
Raw PCM (no header)
•
8000 samples per second
•
8 bits per sample
•
