The system will not makea call attempt in less than the configured call attempt value. However, due to the system hardwareclock resolution, the actual time interval may be greater than the configured value. The defaultvalue is 0.70 seconds. The range of the configured value is 0 to 5 seconds, in 1/100 secondincrements. A configured value of 0 implies that the system will make call attempts without anydelay between them.CALL I NTERVAL B ACKGROUND I NFORMATIONThis parameter allows the configuration of the minimum interval between call attempts. Thisinterval applies to the entire system, including all lines, sites, and devices.The Call Interval is configured in terms of hundredths of seconds. The default value is .7 seconds.The range of the configured value is 0 to 5 seconds. A configured value of 0 implies that the systemwill make call attempts without any delay between them.The default value of .7 seconds is compliant with the Communications Industries Association ofJapan’s(CIAJ) regulation. This regulation states that no customer premise equipment should makemore than 3 call attempts within 2 seconds. This prevents certain model switches from beingoverloaded. In areas where these low capacity switches are not installed, calls can be made morefrequently.Before the system initiates a data connection, it first checks the time at which the last connectionwas initiated. If the time from the last connection attempt to the new connection attempt is less thanthe configured call interval, the new connection is placed on an outgoing call queue. The queue isthen serviced at the configured call interval.M ONTHLY C ALL C HARGECONFIGURING M ONTHLY CALL CHARGEU SING CFGEDIT1. Select Call Charges from the Call Control Options menu.2.
