Talkswitch 24-CA, 48-CA/CVA manual Calls are not always reaching my voicemail

assigned. Follow the instructions. You can dial # 00 # to check the unit ID of the unit you are connected to. Click the System Information link in the TalkSwitch configuration software.

After recording an auto attendant greeting, I can’t play it back.

•After recording an auto attendant on one of the TalkSwitch units, it will copy it to other TalkSwitch units on the LAN. During this process, you cannot listen to that particular auto attendant. Try again in a few minutes.

Calls are not always reaching my voicemail.

•When the system is in high use, all channels across the LAN might be in use, so that calls cannot be transferred to extensions or voicemail. If this situation happens frequently, consider optimizing the way the system uses the lines under System Information -> Line Hunt Groups in the configuration software. Click the checkbox next to For all Hunt Groups, hunt lines on same unit first. Also, ensure that frequently used extensions are connected to units with enough lines out to reduce LAN traffic.

Example: You have two TalkSwitch units, six lines and 12 employees. The Six lines have the hunt/rollover service from the phone company. Suggested setup: Plug the four highest traffic lines into unit 1. Also, connect the eight highest phone usage employee extensions to unit 1. Connect the remaining lines and extensions to unit 2. Under System Information -> Line Hunt Groups in the configuration software, make sure you have the For all Hunt Groups, hunt lines on same unit first checkbox enabled. This arrangement keeps most of the traffic on unit 1 and any outbound calls made from any extension will go out on the same unit the extension is connected to. This also applies for inbound calls that are forwarded to remote extensions. The call will be forwarded out on a line belonging to the same unit that the call came in on. The call will only be forwarded on the other TalkSwitch unit if no line on that first unit is available.

Calls across the LAN are lower in volume.

•Check the line gain levels under Options -> Audio Controls in the configuration software. You may need to increase the line gain levels on one or more lines to compensate for high loss lines. If these controls are set incorrectly and your lines are problematic, you may hear an echo when calls are made across the LAN.
