re: Repetition indicator for pktcSigDevRingCadence,pktcSi gDevStandardRingCadence, pktcSigDevRingSplashCadence Objects

>2. Extend the SIZE range by one byte, indicating the repeatable tone sequence. This extra byte will immediately follow the first one (the length). In this case SIZE and desciptoins of all MIB objects should be modified. 

These objects will need to have their size extended in any case because the current cadence definition is too short to handle Germany per TS 101 183. The following proposed change handles the longer cadence and an additional octet to indicate repeatable characteristics.

    SYNTAX       OCTET STRING (SIZE(4..36)) 
        " The first two octets of the bit string represent the length in
          bits of the duration of the cadence. The third octet is
          used to represent repeatable characteristics. 00000000
          means repeatable, and 10000000 means non repeatable. Each
          Bit after the third octet represents 50 ms and 1
          represents ring and 0 represents silent. The first bit of
          the fourth octet is the first bit of the ring cadence. A
          total of 264 Bits can be set to represent 13200 ms of
          cadence cycle. This object is required for the E line package."
