Each MF Protocol Profile object is a child of the Call Agent object.
This object contains configuration parameters that can be shared by all MF Circuit Groups.
A default MF Protocol Profile is supplied with the MetaSwitch VP3000. The default profile should be suitable for most applications.
![]() |
You cannot modify the parameters of an MF Protocol Profile while it is referenced by a Circuit Group, or while it is enabled. To modify it, you must change all the MF Circuit Groups referencing this profile to specify a different profile (creating a new one if necessary), and then disable the existing profile. |

Description |
CAS bits for Idle | Change | The CAS bits used to represent Idle state. Values:
|
CAS bits for Seized | Change | The CAS bits used to represent Seized state. This must not be set to the same value as CAS bits for Idle. Values:
|
Wink generation duration | Change | The time, in milliseconds, to spend in Seized state when generating a wink. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 200. |
Min wink detection duration | Change | The minimum length of a wink, in milliseconds (used for wink detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 100. |
Max wink detection duration | Change | The maximum length of a wink, in milliseconds (used for wink detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 350. |
Seize debounce time | Change | The debounce time, in milliseconds (used when wink detection is not required). This is the minimum time for which seize state must be detected before it is recognized as seize state. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 150. |
Min seize duration | Change | The minimum length of a seize, in milliseconds (used when wink detection is required). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 350. |
Flash generation duration | Change | The time, in milliseconds, to spend in Idle state when generating a flash. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 450. |
Min flash detection duration | Change | The minimum length of a flash, in milliseconds (used for flash detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 200. |
Max flash detection duration | Change | The maximum length of a flash, in milliseconds (used for flash detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 1550. |
Idle debounce time | Change | The idle debounce time, in milliseconds (used when wink detection is not required). This is the minimum time for which the line must be idle before it is recognized as being idle. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 400. |
Min idle duration | Change | The minimum length of an idle, in milliseconds (used when wink detection is required). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 1550. |
KP digit duration | Change | The length of a KP MF digit, in milliseconds. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 30. |
MF or ST digit duration | Change | The length of an MF or ST MF digit, in milliseconds. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 70. |
Amplitude of 1st component of tone | Change | The amplitude of the first component of each MF tone. Range: -32767 - 32767. The default is -7. |
Amplitude of 2nd component of tone | Change | The amplitude of the second component of each MF tone. Range: -32767 - 32767. The default is -7. |
Interdigit spacing | Change | The spacing between MF tones, in milliseconds. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 60. |
Interdigit timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait for subsequent MF tones after the first tone is detected. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 8000. |
Frequency set | Change | The set of frequencies used for the MF digits. Values:
|
Wink delay | Change | The delay, in milliseconds, between detecting seizure and generating a wink. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 100. |
First wink timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait after seizure for a wink on the first try. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 10000. |
Retry wink timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait after seizure for a wink on a retry. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 10000. |
Outpulse delay | Change | The delay, in milliseconds, between detecting a wink and commencing outpulsing. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 70. |
First digit timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait for the first digit after generating a wink or seize. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 7000. |
ANI acknowledgement timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait after the last digit of ANI for an acknowledgement. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 4000. |
DN acknowledgement timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait after the last digit of DN for an acknowledgement. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 4000. |
Connect timeout | Change | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait for connect (after the ANI acknowledgement wink, or immediately after ANI if no wink is expected). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 4000. |
