Next, enter the 'Distinctive Ring' telephone number for each of the Distinctive
Ring numbers associated to this line. Distinctive Ring 1 corresponds to any
double ring pattern. Distinctive Ring 2 corresponds to any triple ring pattern.
In the “Telephone company services” section:
Select any of the Telephone Company Services that you currently have for each
line. The following is an explanation of each service and the impact of selecting
each option with respect to how TalkSwitch handles calls. For definitions and
details on how to use these features with TalkSwitch, see Appendix B.
3-Way Calling/Conference/Centrex Transfer:
TalkSwitch can work with this service to forward calls to Remote
Extensions or other external phone numbers while using the same
line (Same Line Connect). You can also use this service as an option
for bridging calls to external numbers when calling into TalkSwitch
from the outside. If you find that you are having difficulties with line
levels when forwarding calls to Remote Extensions or using Call
Bridge, you should use 3-way calling to forward calls as a solution.
Call Waiting:
Check this box if you have Call Waiting service on the current line. It
is recommended that you remove this service from your line(s) since
there is no way for TalkSwitch to handle a second call on the same
line while it is handling the first call. You may want to instead con-
sider adding the Hunt/Rollover service to your lines.
Caller ID:
Check this box if the current line provides Caller ID information.
TalkSwitch will pass along the Caller ID information to selected
extensions. Also, TalkSwitch can use the time information provided by
Caller ID to update TalkSwitch’s internal clock. (see section 2.3.5.4).
Telephone Company Voicemail:
Check this box if you are subscribed to a Telephone Company
Voicemail service. If this service is enabled on a specific line, calls can
be routed to this voicemail service.
Hunt/Rollover:
Check this box if the current line is associated with a Line Hunt or
Line Rollover service from the Telephone Company. In general, any
lines that belong to a Hunt/Rollover group should be configured to
handle calls the same way.
