3.8.2.3 Behaviour of the /RING0 line (RS-232(0) interface only)
The /RING0 line is available on the RS-232(0) interface. Its behaviour depends on the type
of the call received.
· When a voice call comes in the /RING0 line goes low for 1s and high for another 4s.
Every 5 seconds the ring string is generated and sent over the /RXD0 line.
If there is a call in progress and call waiting is activated for a connected handset or
handsfree device, the /RING0 line switches to ground in order to generate acoustic
signals that indicate the waiting call.
Figure 24: Incoming voice call
· Likewise, when a Fax or data call is received, /RING0 goes low. However, in contrast to
voice calls, the line remains low. Every 5 seconds the ring string is generated and sent
over the /RXD0 line.
Figure 25: Incoming data call
· All types of unsolicited result codes (URCs) also cause the
/RING0 line to go low, however for 1 second only.
For example, the GSM engine may be configured to output
a URC upon the receipt of an SMS. As a result, if this URC
type was activated with AT+CNMI=1,1, each incoming
SMS causes the /RING0 line to go low.
For more detailed information on URCs please refer the
"MC45 AT Command Set".
