Ringback Tone Setting

The ringback tone setting prioritizes the playing of local ringtones and determines what kinds of previews the callee can receive.

Set it up on the Device > Audio > Ringback Tone Setting interface.

 

  • Ringback Source:

    • Remote, Local As Backup: The local ringtone will be played.

      • When the door phone calls another device, for example, an Akuvox indoor monitor, and the SIP server returns non-183, the indoor monitor will not have any intercom preview.

      • If the SIP server returns 183, the indoor monitor will receive the video preview without voice.

    • Local: The local ringtone will be played. Whether the SIP server returns 183 or not, the callee will not have any intercom preview.

    • Remote:

      • If the SIP server returns non-183, the local ringtone will be played, and the callee will not have any intercom preview.
