Please note:  The Hi-Phone Desktop RS232 currently does not support loop-drop (wink) remote disconnect detection.  It provides remote caller disconnect detection using fast busy signal / dial-tone detection.  This can create a delay in detecting remote disconnects.  In some cases the remote disconnect detection may not occur properly.  There is some locale dependency involved as well.  Some telephone company equipment plays a series of automated voice messages before putting a fast busy on the line.  This detection method is usually not an issue for interactive desktop telephony applications.   However, it can be an issue for some automated unattended applications.  Some of our customers use timers or other program logic as a work-around if this is an issue for their application.
