Hide when minimized - When this option is checked TalkMaster is minimized to the Windows
System Tray when either the - or X in the upper right hand corner of the screen
are pressed.
To close TalkMaster, use menu File Exit or right click on the TalkMaster ICON is the system
tray and select Close Program
If you check this box, it is recommended that you also check Activate Call Announcement so
that the Incoming Call dialog is displayed when TalkMaster is minimized. Otherwise,
TalkMaster can only be recalled by double clicking the TalkMaster ICON in the system tray.
Hold down Talk button while speaking (PTT) - When this option is checked, the Talk button
can be activated by pressing and holding down the Space Bar or by clicking on the Talk button
and holding the mouse button down.
If this option is not checked, the Talk button can be activated/deactivated by single clicking the
Talk button or tapping the Space Bar on your computer keyboard.
Activate Call Announcement - When this option is checked, the button on the Intercom is
treated as a Call button. After pressing and releasing the Intercom’s Call button, the message
"your call is being connected" is played at the Intercom. The Call Announcement Notifications
will then be triggered in TalkMaster. Please see Call Announcement for more details.
Call Announcement Notification - These notifications alert the TalkMaster operator to an
incoming call. The alerts will be triggered up to four times at 5 second intervals until the
incoming call is answered. If the TalkMaster operator is already on a call, the alerts will not be
triggered.
Visual Notification - Checking this box causes the TalkMaster title bar and task bar icon to
flash.
Audible Notification - Checking this box causes the selected audio file to be played at the
TalkMaster console. Select the Door Bell or the Custom option from the list. If you select
Custom, you can record over the custom_announcement.wav file in the iSupport subdirectory
of the TalkMaster program directory. If you record a new wave file, it should only be one or
two seconds long since the wav file will not be interrupted once it starts playing! See Changing
Recordings for more information.
Record Audio in Call Waiting Queue - If a call is added to the Calls Waiting queue, checking
this box allows audio captured during the Intercom’s initial button press to be made available
for playback from the Calls Waiting Queue.
Hide View Tab - Checking either the Intercom View or Custom View allows you to present a
single view to the TalkMaster Operator.
Use Alternate Talk/Listen Buttons - By default, the Talk and Listen buttons are labeled as
Talk and Listen. When this option is selected, the button labels change as the state of the
buttons change. Talk starts out as "Push to Talk" and is changed to "Release to Listen"
while it is being pushed down. Listen starts out as Listen, but changes to End while listening
to a call. Use of this feature automatically selects the Hold down Talk button while speaking
(PTT) option
