Multi-Link Multi-Link TeleVoIP Stick 3. General Operation

2005-11-22 9 / 22

Once the setup is complete, the Multi-Link Interface Adapter Window will be opened on your

desktop. The Multi-Link Interface Adapter will be available in the Start → All Programs selections.

To improve your operational performance, there are a couple of Skype™ options you may want

to change.

A system restart after setup is advised.

Sound Devices

The TeleVoIP Stick™ uses the sound card for control. You may find it works better to disable the

Skype™ Control for your sound device settings.

Go to Skype™ window Tools=>Options and select Sound Devices. On the screen displayed, un-

check the item Let Skype adjust my sound device settings.

Ring In Tone

With the TeleVoIP Stick™, the phone(s) connected to the Stick’s phone jack are rung on incoming

calls by a built in ring generator that creates a normal phone-company-sounding ring on the

device(s).

When you are on a Skype™ call and a second Skype™ call is received, a Skype™ selected ring

tone is created on the computer to announce the new call.

If you are using the Desktops Speaker and Microphone for the first call, the second call’s ring will

be heard over the speakers.

However, if you are using the phone on a Skype™ call, the ring tone for a second incoming call

will be heard during the call in progress.

To be less intrusive, an alternate

TVSRingin.wav

file is placed in the

..\Program

Files\MultiLink Adapter Interface

folder during installation. You can chose this Ring In tone

by going to Skype™ Tools=>Options=>Sounds and selecting a new sound for Ring Tone.

Select the browse icon, select Skype ringtone in the My Sounds list, select Browse…and go to

the installation folder for the Multi-Link Adapter Interface. Choose the

TVSRingin.wav

file.

You will find it has a shorter duration and lower volume that is not as disruptive in the background

of an ongoing call

3. General Operation

The Multi-Link Adapter Interface must be running for the TeleVoIP Stick to work. Using the File

Menu options, you should set the application to be launched at startup.

Once started, the Multi-Link Adapter Interface operates much like the Skype™ window in that if

you click the RED “X” in the upper right of the window it minimizes it into the Sys Tray.

You can access the most frequently used functions of the window by right-clicking the SysTray

icon and selecting the operation.

The functions available from the SysTray are:
