CopiaFacts™ Reference Manual

Specify Tone Parameters for Global Tone Detection

$global_tone chan toneid parmlist

This command applies only to Diva. A $global_tone_parms command is also required.

This command specifies a tone which is recognized during CopiaFacts operations and can be used for application purposes, for example for detecting a specific answering machine type. To determine the parameters to enter, it is easiest to prepare a recording of the tone in a VOX or WAV file use a utility such as Adobe Audition (formerly CoolEdit 2000) to analyze the frequencies.

The parameters on this command are used as follows:

chan the channel number or channel group(s) affected, or * for all channels. Up to 32 tones may be defined for each channel.
toneid The tone ID number to identify the tone (a value 1 to 32).  CopiaFacts will analyze up to 32 separate tones.
parmlist a list of two white-space-separated values as follows:
freq1 the first or only tone frequency in Hz.
fq1dev the deviation of the above tone in Hz.

To enable tone detection, assign values to the GTD_CHECK system variable. When a tone is detected, the tone ID is returned in the GTD_TONEID variable.

Hardware Issues: Diva only

Example:

Specify a single tone of between 372Hz and 378Hz :
