Verbatim Owner's Manual
When CPM determines that a call is not complete, an appropriate report will be
sent to the local printer.
Reasons for a non-completed call:
l CPM determines the line is busy
l CPM does not detect cessation of ringing before end of programmed CPM
ring count
l CPM does not detect either busy signal or valid ring signals
Reason for a completed Call:
l CPM detects at least one ring followed by cessation of ringing
If a call is not completed, the Verbatim autodialer will disconnect the call and
enter the intercall delay state. At the end of the intercall delay, the next
programmed telephone number will be dialed.
When a call is not completed, the intercall delay will always be shortened to 30
seconds. This CPM altered intercall delay is fixed at 30 seconds and is not
affected by the user-programmed intercall delay. The normal programmable
intercall delay will apply only to the delay between completed calls.
Call Progress Monitoring for firmaware version 2.09 is set to ON by factory
default. If CPM is OFF the Verbatim will deliver voice messages without regard
to any ringing or busy signals. This unit will simply dial the number, then after
a short delay, start annunciating voice reports.
As noted above, dialtone detection is actually a part of the Phone Fault
Detection feature. It is possible to have CPM turned OFF and Phone Fault
Detect turned ON. In this case, the unit will test for a dialtone but not for busy
or ringing signals.
Use code 900 to read or set CPM programming. Use code 900 followed by a 1
or 0 parameter to program CPM ON (1) or OFF (0).
The CPM ring count is the number of rings Verbatim autodialer will wait for an
answer before considering the call to be incomplete. Use code 918 to read or set
the number of CPM rings. The factory default is 10 rings and the user may
program any number of rings from 5 to 20.
l For example, to program the CPM ring count to 10 rings, enter:
918 10 then ENTER
