Make sure you use the ‘Flash’ or ‘Link’ button to put callers on hold. If you use the ‘Hold’ button on your phone, callers will be placed on hold at the phone and since TalkSwitch didn’t receive a signal to indicate a caller is to be placed on hold, no music can be played.

Problem: Sometimes callers do not hear Music-on-Hold .

Make sure you have a music source connected to the MUSIC jack at the back of each TalkSwitch unit connected to the LAN.

Problem: Callers are disconnected when transferring calls from one extension to another.

It is possible that if you are using the hookswitch to put callers on hold rather than a Flash button, you may be holding the hookswitch down too long, and as a result are actually hanging up on the caller.
