Internal Caller ID options:
TalkSwitch has the ability to generate name and number Caller ID to each extension during intercom calls. If your Caller ID unit/telephone does not support the name option, you can choose to have TalkSwitch send the number only.
Prompt function key options:
Some phone cards and phone services use different keypad digits for some of their features. Four options are given to allow flexibility with other systems. If required, choose an option that best suits working with your phone card or phone service. You can use these prefixes for entering phone numbers when calling into TalkSwitch and using Call Back and Call Bridge using
The following describes how to input special prefixes depending upon which key is used.
When using the key: | When using the key: | |
= |
| = |
0 = 2 second pause | 0 | = 2 second pause |
1 = Wait for dial tone | 1 | = Wait for dial tone |
= |
| = |
Example: You want to change the Prompted Call Back phone number remotely
and the special prefix key is the 
key. After you dial into TalkSwitch and press ‘6’ for Call Back, you go into the options for Prompted Call Back and select to change the phone number. When prompted to enter the phone number, you enter:
70 
018005551212 
This tells TalkSwitch that you want it to dial:
70 (2 second pause)
Audio output options:
The following controls can be used for various reasons including demonstrating TalkSwitch and screening callers using Voicemail. By default the system is set to
play only PA announcements through the PA output when 
0 is dialed at a Local Extension.
If you are a single person operation and would like to screen all voicemail messages being left on TalkSwitch, you can connect a speaker to the PA output and select ‘Play Voicemail prompts and recordings through PA’. When a caller goes to voicemail, you will hear your greeting and the caller leaving a message. If you
wish to interrupt and speak to the caller, dial 
9 from any Local Extension.
