| Description | This is the repeat count, which signifies how many times
to repeat the entire on-off cadence sequence. Setting this
object may result in a cadence duration longer or shorter
than the overall signal duration specified by the time out
(TO) object for a particular signal. If the repeat count
results in a longer tone duration than the signal duration
specified by the TO, the tone duration defined by the
TO object for a particular signal always represents
the overall signal duration for a tone. In this case, the
tone duration repeat count will not be fully exercised, and
the desired tone duration will be truncated per the TO
setting. If the repeat count results in a shorter tone
duration than the signal duration specified by the TO, the
tone duration defined by the repeat count takes precedence
over the TO and will end the signal event. In this case,
the TO represents a time not to be exceeded for the signal.
It is recommended to ensure proper telephony signaling so that
the TO duration setting should always be longer than the
desired repeat count-time duration. |
