ToneScript
ToneScript is a description syntax for the characteristics of call-progress tones.
A call progress tone is a pattern of audible tones played to the caller in a telephone call, conveying the status of the call. ToneScript describes the pattern of frequency, cadence, and level of the signal. Many Internet telephony devices support configuration options for users to customize the tones, but standard patterns are provided for various telephone administrations. ToneScript is used in Sipura, Linksys and Cisco family of IP telephony products.

- A ToneScript syntax may have at most 120 characters.
- A calling tone may use up to 6 frequency components nk{displaystyle n_{k}}
where 1<=k<=6{displaystyle 1<=k<=6}
- A cadence section Zi{displaystyle Z_{i}}
indicates its Duration Di{displaystyle D_{i}}
followed by up to 6 subsections ZZi,j{displaystyle ZZ_{i,j}}
in parenthesis. A subsection consists of an ON duration (* for always on), an OFF duration and the list of frequency components fi,j{displaystyle f_{i,j}}
used in that subsection.
- fi,j:=n1[+n2[+n3[+n4[+n5[+n6]]]]]{displaystyle f_{i,j}:=n_{1}[+n_{2}[+n_{3}[+n_{4}[+n_{5}[+n_{6}]]]]]}
- ZZi,j:=oni,j/offi,j/fi,j{displaystyle ZZ_{i,j}:=on_{i,j}/off_{i,j}/f_{i,j}}
- Zi:=Di([ZZi,1[,ZZi,2[,ZZi,3[,ZZi,4[,ZZi,5[,ZZi,6]]]]]){displaystyle Z_{i}:=D_{i}([ZZ_{i,1}[,ZZ_{i,2}[,ZZ_{i,3}[,ZZ_{i,4}[,ZZ_{i,5}[,ZZ_{i,6}]]]]])}
- A FreqScript is a sequence of frequencies Fi{displaystyle F_{i}}
in hertz and their corresponding levels Li{displaystyle L_{i}}
in dBm
FreqScript:=F1{displaystyle FreqScript:=F_{1}}@L1[,F2{displaystyle L_{1}[,F_{2}}
@L2]{displaystyle L_{2}]}
- A Tone Script has a frequency specification and one or two cadence sections.
- ToneScript:=FreqScript;Z1[;Z2]{displaystyle ToneScript:=FreqScript;Z_{1}[;Z_{2}]}
Examples
- 350@-19,440@-19;10(*/0/1+2)

- Contains 6 frequency components
- Frequency components are 349, 392, 440, 466, 523 and 540 Hz (five musical notes) plus a beat frequency tone mix to give a warble dialtone beat thereafter.
- There are two Cadence Sections
- In the first Cadence Section, the total duration is 2.1 seconds and the tone has 6 subsections with timing set for music.
- The tones are turned on and off to give the ′notes′ of the familiar Christmas carol.
- In the second Cadence Section, the duration is 30 seconds. It combines tones 5 and 6 to give the last note and the familiar 17 Hz beat of dialtone.
- In the first Cadence Section, the total duration is 2.1 seconds and the tone has 6 subsections with timing set for music.
- 392@-19,440@-19,494@-19,294@-19,457@-19;3.5(.7/0/4,.8/0/1,.6/0/1,.5/0/3,.7/0/2,.2/0/1);30(*/0/2+5)

- Contains 5 frequency components
- Frequency components are 392, 440, 494, 292 and 457 Hz (four musical notes) plus a beat frequency tone mix to give a warble dialtone beat thereafter.
- There are two Cadence Sections
- In the first Cadence Section, the total duration is 3.5 seconds and the tone has 6 subsections with timing set for music.
- The tones are turned on and off to give the ′notes′ of the familiar New Year's Eve tune.
- In the second Cadence Section, the duration is 30 seconds. It combines tones 4 and 5 to give the last note in the familiar 17 Hz beat of dialtone.
- In the first Cadence Section, the total duration is 3.5 seconds and the tone has 6 subsections with timing set for music.
