    摘要: The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for positioning at least two devices, a first and a second device relative each other. The method comprises: transmitting a number of magnetic pulses with the first device, detecting said pulses with the second device, based on said detected pulses generating a number of virtual planes, and determining a crossing line between said planes corresponding to a direction between said devices.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and products present a custom alert to a recipient of an incoming data communication. A data message is received that specifies the custom alert associated with the data communication. The customer alert is then visually and/or audibly presented to provide notice of the data communication.

    摘要: A configurable PSTN call-handling (CPC) service enables monitoring and custom responses to calls received over multiple subscriber lines. A CPC Client Program runs on a computer and presents a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows the user to associate call-handling options with call characteristics. The GUI also allows the user to customize the notification signals provided and to provide custom responses to certain callers, by associating call characteristics with various GUI appearances, sound files, or images. The CPC relieves the communications network of performing certain call-handling functions, such as call forwarding, by moving decision-making processes to the user's PC. The user can remotely monitor any subscriber line associated with the user from any browser, because the communications network sends notifications directly to an IP address specified by the user. The IP address associated with a computer connected to the subscriber line need not be the IP address specified by the user.

    摘要翻译: 可配置的PSTN呼叫处理(CPC)服务使得能够对通过多个用户线路接收的呼叫进行监视和定制响应。 CPC客户端程序在计算机上运行,​​并呈现图形用户界面(GUI),允许用户将呼叫处理选项与呼叫特性相关联。 GUI还允许用户定制所提供的通知信号,并通过将呼叫特征与各种GUI外观,声音文件或图像相关联来向某些呼叫者提供定制响应。 通过将决策过程移动到用户的PC,CPC可以减轻执行某些呼叫处理功能的通信网络,例如呼叫转移。 用户可以从任何浏览器远程监控与用户相关联的任何用户线路,因为通信网络直接向用户指定的IP地址发送通知。 与连接到用户线路的计算机相关联的IP地址不需要是用户指定的IP地址。

    摘要: An incoming call is detected from a calling entity. If the incoming call is associated with a subscription to presence information media data associated with the subscription can be output through an output unit in the telephone terminal. If the incoming call is determined to be associated with a subscription to presence information, it is determined whether the media data is present in the terminal, and if the media data is present in the terminal, the media data is output through an output unit in the telephone terminal.

    摘要: A method includes executing instructions recorded on a non-transitory computer-readable storage media using at least one processor. The method includes receiving, at a device, at least two communications from a sender of the communications using at least two different communication modes, determining a notification mode for the device based on an identity of the sender and at least two of the communication modes being different from one another and providing a notification on the device using the determined notification mode.

    摘要: A circuit for a telephone such as a mobile radiotelephone. The circuit has a memory for storing phonebook items and for storing group attributes associated with phonebook items, a connection to a radiotelephone receiver for receiving telephone calls and calling party identifications, and a controller for selecting the disposition of received calls. An operating mode is selected (45) from a plurality of operating modes, e.g. “Personal”, “emergency”, “personal-plus-emergency”, “all calls”, “no calls”, etc. A received calling party identification is compared (42) with a phonebook item, and a disposition for a received call (46, 47, 48, 49) is selected dependent on a group attribute for that phonebook item and a present operating mode.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media provide for providing an event alert. According to embodiments, a method for providing an event alert is provided. According to the method, an incoming communication from a first device is detected. An initiating party associated with the first device is identified. Whether the initiating party associated with the first device is further associated with an alert tag is determined. The alert tag may include an identifying alert identifying the initiating party associated with the first device. In response to determining that the initiating party associated with the first device is associated with the alert tag, the identifying alert is provided as the event alert on a second device.
