Application Delays for Call Processing
WAIT AFTER OFF HOOK BEFORE GIVING PROMPT
Application Delay 8 causes a delay between the time the port goes off hook and the time the
greeting or system prompt is played.
Use — If the PBX is slow in sending the speech paths through, it could cause greetings or
prompts to be clipped (only part of the greeting or prompt heard). Modify Application Delay
8 to delay for a longer time before the message server plays the greeting or prompt.
TIMEOUT BEFORE LOOKING FOR RINGBACK OR BUSY
After dialing an extension number, the message server waits the amount of time specified in
Application Delay 19 before looking for a ringback, busy, or fast-busy tone.
Use — Some PBXs send a partial ringback or busy tone before starting the ringback or
busy-tone cycle. That would cause the Octel Overture 200/300 to fail, because the partial tone
would not comply with any of the tone windows established in the Application Delay Table.
Modify Application Delay 19 for a longer time interval.
WAIT LONGER BEFORE LOOKING FOR RINGBACK
Application Delay 87 only works in conjunction with COS Attribute 30 — EXTENSION IS ON
ANOTHER PBX, WAIT LONGER BEFORE LOOKING AT TONES . After dialing an extension
number, the message server waits the amount of time specified in Application Delay 87
before looking for a ringback, busy, or fast-busy tone.
Use — In some PBX environments, two or more PBXs might be connected through tie lines,
so users on a local PBX could dial an extension number on a remote PBX and be routed
directly to it, without going over the public network. The ringback tone from the distant PBX
is delayed while the PBXs set up the call. Without Attribute 30 and Application Delay 87, the
Octel Overture 200/300 detects the longer silence as an answer and attempts to transfer the
call, which causes a failure. This COS attribute and application-delay combination allows the
Octel Overture 200/300 to wait before looking for a ringback tone when calling certain
extensions.

DIAL TONE MAXIMUM OFF PERIOD
This delay is used as the first delay when looking for dial tone after flash, or whenever E,
expect dial tone, is in a dialing string.
Use —The message server uses this delay to determine if the PBX has provided dialtone after
flash or whenever E is in a dialing string. If dialtone is not received from the PBX within the
