Defining the TeleVantage SoftPhone as your external station ____

The TeleVantage SoftPhone is included with TeleVantage ViewPoint and you can use it as your TeleVantage phone at any time. However, if you will primarily be using SoftPhone as your TeleVantage phone, it is more convenient to have it defined as your external station (see “Using an external station” on page 6-10). Talk to your system administrator about assigning SoftPhone as your external station.

If you already have an external station, you can configure the SoftPhone as your external station destination at any time. To do so:

1.Choose Tools > Options. The Options dialog box opens.

2.Click the Phone \ Station Features tab.

3.From the Destination dropdown list, choose “TeleVantage SoftPhone.”

4.Choose an H.323 Internet dialing service under Call Using.

5.Enter your PC’s IP address under Address.

6.Click OK.
