5.4.7 User Sounds

The 2N LTE intercoms provide standard signalling of operational statuses by tone sequences; refer to the Signalling of Operational Statuses subsection.  If you find the standard sound signalling inconvenient, modify the sounds for the following statuses:

1. 1. Ringing before answering call
   2. Ringback tone
   3. Call busy tone
   4. Call hang-up
   5. Invalid input
   6. Invalid user position
   7. Switch activation

You can either completely mute the above-mentioned sounds, replace them with one of the ten predefined sounds, or simply record a sound file of your own into the intercom. The sound file must have the WAV format and use PCM encoding with 8/16 kHz sampling frequency and 8/16-bit sample resolution, and the file size may not exceed 256 kB.

You can also play the recorded files via Automation using the Action.PlayUserSound and, optionally, with the aid of the intercom speaker and/or directly into the phone call.
