Throttling Delay (octet 5)

Bits 5 to 1 represent the binary coded timer value.

Bits 6 to 8 defines the timer unit for the timer as follows:

Bits

8 7 6

0 0 0 value is incremented in multiples of 2 seconds

0 0 1 value is incremented in multiples of 1 minute

0 1 0 value is incremented in multiples of 10 minutes

0 1 1 value is incremented in multiples of 1 hour

1 0 0 value is incremented in multiples of 10 hours

1 1 1 value indicates that the timer is deactivated.

Other values shall be interpreted as multiples of 1 minute.

Throttling Factor (octet 6)

The Throttling Factor indicates a percentage and may take binary coded integer values from and including 0 up to and including 100. Other values shall be considered as 0.
