Metering Tone Parameters

'Generate Metering Tones'

configure voip > gateway analog metering-tones > gen-mtr-tones

[PayPhoneMeteringMode]

Defines the method for configuring metering tones that are generated to the Tel side.

■

[0] Disable = (Default) Metering tones are not generated.

■

[1] Charge Code Table = Metering tones are generated by the device according to the Charge Code table (see Configuring Charge Codes) and sent to the Tel side.

■

[2] SIP Interval Provided = (Proprietary method of TELES Communications Corporation) Advice-of-Charge service toward the PSTN. Periodic generation of AOC-D and AOC-E toward the PSTN. Calculation is based on seconds. The time interval is calculated according to the scale and tariff provided in the proprietary formatted file included in SIP INFO messages, which is always sent before 200 0K. The device ignores tariffs sent after the call is established.

Note: This option is applicable only to digital interfaces.

■

[3] SIP RAW Data Provided = (Proprietary method of Cirpack) Advice-of-Charge service toward the PSTN. The received AOC-D messages contain a subtotal. When receiving AOC-D in raw format, provided in the header of SIP INFO messages, the device parses AOC-D raw data to obtain the number of units. This number is sent in the Facility message with AOC-D. In addition, the device stores the latest number of units in order to send them in AOC-E IE when the call is disconnected.

Note: This option is applicable only to digital interfaces.

■

[4] SIP RAW Data Incremental Provided = (Proprietary method of Cirpack) Advice-of-Charge service toward the PSTN. The AOC-D message in the payload is an increment. When receiving AOC-D in raw format, provided in the header of SIP INFO messages, the device parses AOC-D raw data to obtain the number of units. This number is sent in the Facility message with AOC-D. The device generates the AOC-E. Parsing every AOC-D received and summing the values is required to obtain the total sum (that is placed in the AOC-E).

Note: This option is applicable only to digital interfaces.

■

[5] SIP-to-Tel Interworking = Enables IP-to-Tel AOC, using the AudioCodes proprietary SIP header, AOC.

Note: This option is applicable only to digital interfaces.

Note: The parameter is applicable only to FXS and ISDN Euro trunks for sending AOC Facility messages (see Advice of Charge Services for Euro ISDN).

'Analog Metering Type'

configure voip > interface fxs-fxo > metering-type

[MeteringType]

Defines the metering method for generating pulses (sinusoidal metering burst frequency) by the FXS port.

■

[0] 12 KHz sinusoidal bursts (default)

■

[1] 16 kHz sinusoidal bursts

■

[2] Polarity Reversal pulses

Note:

■

For the parameter to take effect, a device restart is required.

■

The parameter is applicable only to FXS interfaces.

'Analog TTX Voltage Level'

[AnalogTTXVoltageLevel ]

Determines the metering signal/pulse voltage level (TTX).

■

[0] 0V = 0 Vrms sinusoidal bursts.

■

[1] 0.5V = (Default) 0.5 Vrms sinusoidal bursts.

■

[2] 1V = 1 Vrms sinusoidal bursts

Note:

■

For the parameter to take effect, a device restart is required.

■

The parameter is applicable only to FXS interfaces.

[ISDNAoCAmountPerInterval]

Defines the amount (units) charged per interval.

The default is 1.

Note: The parameter is applicable only to the Euro ISDN protocol (Advice of Charge supplementary services).

[ISDNAoCMinIntervalGeneration]

Defines the interval for sending the AOC messages.

The default is 0 (meaning that the interval is according to the Charge Codes table).

Note:

■

The parameter is applicable only to the Euro ISDN protocol (Advice of Charge supplementary services).

■

The parameter doesn't affect the interval charge amount.

■

The parameter is ignored if its' value is less than the interval configured in the Charge Codes table ('Interval' parameter).
