Note: OPS Manager is supported by Windows 98 and Windows 2000 operating systems only.

Questions about Starting and Closing the

5550 IP Console

What happens to incoming calls when I close the 5550 IP Console application?

If yours is the only console on the system, the system automatically switches to Night Service 1. Calls then ring night bells or another designated answering point. If there are other consoles, yours will switch to Operator Absent status

when you close the application. Other answering points will receive the calls that would otherwise go to your console. For

more information, see Day and Night Service on page 32 and Operator Status on page 37.

What happens to calls if my computer stops working?

Usually, a nearby extension will serve as a backup answering position in the event of a power failure or other problem that causes your computer to stop working. Calls that normally ring the console would then ring the backup extension.

Can I use other applications while the 5550 IP Console is running?

Yes, but keep in mind that having multiple applications open at the same time as the 5550 IP Console can adversely affect its performance. If possible, try to limit your use of other applications to periods when call traffic is low.

My screen goes blank sometimes—why?

A power-saving feature built into the computer automatically reduces the screen intensity when there has been no keyboard or mouse activity for approximately two minutes. After approximately five minutes, the screen goes blank. When you press the spacebar on the keyboard, the console screen will reappear.
