The circuit arrangement includes a memory portion for storing the previous BRI pattern received at the circuit arrangement, and an interrupt generator for comparing the stored previous BRI pattern with a current BRI pattern and for generating an interrupt to activate the handset processor when the previous BRI pattern differs from the current BRI pattern.
