Disable Direct IP Call   The default setting is No. If set to Yes, Direct IP calling will be disabled.  Offhook Auto Dial   Configure a User ID/extension to dial automatically when the phone is taken offhook. By default, the phone will use the first account to dial out.   Advanced Settings/Video Settings  Enable Motion Detection  The phone will exit idle/screensaver mode if motion is detected. The default setting is Yes.   Video Frame rate  The Default value is 15 frames/second. The video frame rate is adjustable based on network conditions. Increasing the frame rate will increase the amount of transferred data significantly therefore consuming more bandwidth. Lack of bandwidth will impair the video due to packet loss. Video Packet Size  The Default value is 1400, range from 100 to 1400. It is recommended to use 600~800 if you have an Outbound Proxy or Media Gateway. Video Rate Control  Frame, TMN8 or GOP. The Default setting is Frame. TMN8 is good for bandwidths larger than 384kbps Video Frame Skipping  Skips bad video frames as they are received The Default setting is No. I-Frame Reference Only  When enabled, all P frames will only have reference to previous I frames. This method may improve video quality when the network has heavy packet loss. It will have modest increase in bandwidth usage. The Default setting is No.Packetization-Mode  The packetization mode (0 or 1) for the H.264 video packets. The default setting is 0. Redundant P-frame  This setting allows the phone to send redundant P-frames of I frames. When an I frame is delayed or has packet loss, the redundant P-frames will be used instead. It may make video phone call less prone to errors and thus make the video stream more robust towards error propagation, but may increase bandwidth usage. The default setting is set to No.Adaptive MB Intra Refresh This parameter specifies whether Adaptive MB Intra Refresh is used or not. It may protect most important MBs (macro blocks) subjected to packet loss and to avoid error propagation. The intra-refresh rate is adapted according to the video packet loss rate. It may increase bandwidth usage. The default setting is set to No.Video Packet Loss Rate  Specifies the video packet loss rate for the Adaptive MB Intra Refresh. Users can choose from: Less than 5%, Less than 10%, Less than 15%, Less than 20%, Less than 25%. The default setting is set to Less than 10%. Advanced Settings/Ring Tone Call Progress Tones: Dial Tone  Ring Back Tone  Using these settings, users can configure ring or tone frequencies based on parameters from the local telecom provider.

Account/Codec Settings Enable Video  --YES: Accepts all incoming video, this is the default setting; --NO: video is disabled. --Enable/Disable during dialing: Dialing time choice to enable/disable video DTMF  Assigns the mechanism to send DTMF. There are three supported modes: in audio (with DTMF as audio signals), through RTP and through SIP INFO. DTMF Payload Type  Sends DTMF using RFC2833. The default is 101. Preferred Vocoder  This products supports up to 8 different Vocoders: including G.711(a/μ)(PCMU/PCMA),GSM,G726-32,G.723.1,G.729A/B, G.722 and L16-256. When this has been configured, the system will select the preferred vocoder from the list and the same order is sent with the SDP messages.  The user can change the preferred vocoder priority order by toggling with the up and down buttons. It is recommended to use the default setting “PCMU”; if other vocoders are chosen, there could be an audio transmission error. Preferred Video Codec  Selects the preferred video codec from the available list. It is recommended to use H.264. H.264Payload type  Selects the dynamic H.264 codec payload type (ranges from 96-127). The default setting is 99. H.263+ Payload type  Selects the H.263+ codec payload type (ranges from 96-127). The default setting is 103.

GXV3174 USER MANUAL                      Page 44 of 68                                                        FIRMWARE VERSION 1.0.0.32                  Updated : 11/2010  related to the codec used and the actual frames transmitted during the in payload call.   For example: if the codec is configured to be G.723 and “Voice Frames per TX” is set to 2. Then in the INVITE request, the “ptime” value for SDP will be 60 ms. This is because the G723 voice frame is 30 ms. Similarly, if the setting is 2 and the codec is G729 or G711 or G726, the “ptime” value for SDP in the INVITE request will be 20 ms.If the voice frames per TX configuration exceeds the maximum value allowed, the phone will choose the preferred codec and use the maximum value allowed.  The maximum value is 64 frames. Adjusting these values will also change the jitter buffer. The phone has an algorithm for setting the jitter buffer and the jitter buffer rate is around 20-200ms.  For end-users, it is recommended to use the default setting, as incorrect settings may influence the quality of audio. G723 Rate  This defines the encoding rate for G723 vocoder, and can be 6.3Kb/s or 5.3Kb/s. Please confirm with your service provider.  Jitter Buffer Type  Users can select either Fixed or Adaptive based on network conditions. The default is Adaptive. Jitter Buffer Length  User can select Low, Medium, or High based on network conditions. The default is Medium.  Account/Call Settings Dial Plan Prefix  Sets the prefix added to each dialed number.
