User Manual PN 84469 Rev B
When an outbound call fails or an active call ends prematurely due to
an error, a burst of fast-busy tone (a.k.a. congestion tone) is
transmitted to the radio user for this amount of time. Acceptable
values are ≥ 0 msec. (Default value is 2000 msec).
After an outbound call has been placed, how long to wait for the peer
to answer before giving up and terminating the call. Note that the call
attempt may terminate before this timeout is reached if an error is
encountered. Acceptable values are ≥ 0 sec. (Default value is 60 sec).

From the Data page, shown in Figure 4-30, data is enabled or disabled and the routing is
configured. The data can be configured to always go through the Iridium satellite system, always
go through the WAN port or go through both, depending on availability of the WAN network.
• For the automatic data routing feature, the WAN network takes precedence over the
Iridium satellite network.
•
When the Data Route is set to ANY, and with a WAN device attached (i.e. cellular
modem), the system automatically switches to the WAN attached network when signal is
available. The system will ping the internet to determine if the WAN device is in range, and
if so switches the data path from Satellite to WAN. If the signal drops out, the data path
switches back to Satellite.
• Selecting ANY will cause all data to go through the Iridium satellite network if no WAN
device is attached or if the WAN device is not powered.
NOTE
The WAN port does not have Power of Ethernet (PoE)
capability, so any device plugged into the WAN port needs to
provide its own power source.
The automatic data routing feature does not apply to voice calls.
All voice calls are routed through the Iridium satellite system
100% of the time. The WAN port is only for data.
