Notice: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the
equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements as
prescribed in the appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The Department
does not guarantee the Equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Repairs to Certified Equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier.
Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the
telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution
may be particularly important in rural areas.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities
of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable
method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not
prevent degradation of service in some situations.
CAUTION!
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should
contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

Important Notice — Music-On-Hold
In accordance with U.S. Copyright Law, a license may be required from the American Society of
Composers, Authors and Publishers, or other similar organization, if radio or TV broadcasts are

Information Systems, Inc., strongly recommends not using radio or television broadcasts and hereby
disclaims any liability arising out of the failure to obtain such a license.

telephones be hearing aid compatible. This rule applies to all telephones regardless of the date of
manufacture or installation. There are severe financial penalties which may be levied on the end-user for
non-compliance.

The IP5000-series telephones connected to a Strata CIX telephone system,
running Release 5.2 or higher software, include a selection of IP telephone
models and matching IP add-on modules, as well as a 60 button DSS Console.
See Table 1 for more details.
Some IP5000 telephones offer a built-in gigabit ethernet switch allowing the
telephone to autosense the network speed, 10/100/1000Mbps. The IP5522-SD,
IP5622-SD and IP5631-SDL telephone models do not support 1000Mbps.
Through dynamic soft key assignments, the LCD telephones provide easy access
to frequently-used features by prompting specific tasks, providing Outside Line
Identification, User Name/Number, Call Duration, Date/Time of Day displays, and
Name and number displays of incoming callers.
The full-duplex speakerphone on these telephones enables you to place and
receive calls without lifting the handset.
The LCD telephones with 10 and 20 buttons are available with LCD backlight.
However, the IP5022-SD and IP5522-SD telephones do not have the backlight. To
change the backlight settings, refer to Chapter –Feature Operations.

Description
SoftIPT tries to connect to the IPedge using the following
addresses:

•
•

Primary IPedge server IP address
Secondary IPedge server IP address.

Notes

IP address

If Broadcast is selected, SoftIPT tries to search for the IP address
by sending broadcast messages. SoftIPT skips the Primary IP
address or the Secondary one if it is not set. In either case, if
SoftIPT successfully connects, the IP address is shown in the
“Connected IP Address” field. See your System Administrator for
IP address of the IPedge system.
If Broadcast is selected, the broadcast message is sent on the
same subnet, which means SoftIPT can connect to the IPedge on
the same subnet using Broadcast mode without designating the
IPedge IP address. However, in some PC environments, SoftIPT
cannot complete this broadcast registration sequence because
the lower network module does not notify SoftIPT, through
Windows, of receiving a reply message after sending a broadcast
message. Therefore, Toshiba recommends using Manual mode if
SoftIPT cannot find the IPedge by Broadcast.

Network

If there are multiple network adapters, select the one for SoftIPT.
Check this box to automatically startup SoftIPT after starting your
PC.

This chapter gives you more details about your IP5000-series telephone’s
advanced functions. An alphabetical list of supported features has been compiled
in this chapter for fast and easy reference.

Account Codes

Verified/Non-Verified
Account Codes

Account Codes (Forced or Voluntary) can be used for a variety of reasons
including billing, tracking, and line restriction applications. Account Codes are
assigned in the system as a fixed length (default is six digits) and are recorded by
the system, along with the details of the calls, which can be printed on a Station
Message Detail Recording (SMDR) report.
Verified Account Codes ensure that the system checks the account code you
entered against a list created by the System Administrator. If the code is not in the
list, the call will not go through.
Non-Verified Account Codes must be a uniform length but any digits are accepted.
Account Codes and Lengths are set up and managed by the System
Administrator.

Forced Account
Codes

Dial using Forced
Account Codes

Some applications require you to enter an Account Code. These Forced Account
Codes may be verified or non-verified, depending upon the application, but in
either case the caller must enter a code before proceeding.
1. Place a call using the normal method.
If the call requires an Account Code, a burst of tone (Entry Tone) is heard (after
dialing the telephone number) alerting you to enter the Account Code.
2. Enter the account number.
When the number of digits designated for account codes has been entered, the
number is checked against the verified list, if chosen, and the call continues
normal. If the number of digits entered for the account code is not reached or the
verified code does not match, then re-order tone is heard and the call is rejected.
You can bypass Forced Account Code requirements with three emergency
numbers, including 911. See your System Administrator for these numbers:

Voluntary Account
Codes (Verified/NonVerified)

IPedge UG

Voluntary Account Codes are optional. They can be entered during a call and are
used for tracking selected calls using Station Message Detail Report (SMDR) call
detail recording option.

IPedge
Feature Operations
If the system is set for Verified Account Codes, station users must enter a
specific code when entering the Voluntary Account Code(s) or the code is not
validated for the SMDR call report. This does not affect the call.

Voluntary Account
Codes
Using the Account Code
Button

There are two ways to dial using a Voluntary Account Code:
Note:

This requires a Programmable Feature Button to be programmed on
your telephone set with the Account Code feature access code (#46).

1. After accessing a Group Central Office (GCO) line, press the Account
Code button. LCD telephones prompt you to “ENTER ACCOUNT CODE
NOW.”
2. Enter the account code digits. The LCD prompt disappears upon entry of
the first account code digit. After the account code is entered, the time
indicator is restored to the LCD.
3. If your station is set for Verified Account Codes, you hear a confirmation
tone when the code is valid. If the code is invalid, you hear two short
tones.
4. Enter the Account Code. Your conversation is not interrupted.

Using Access Codes

Note:

It’s a good idea to warn the other party that you will be disconnected
momentarily when you enter the access code. Once the code is
entered, you will be connected again.

1. After accessing a GCO line, press Cnf/Trn. Once you press Cnf/Trn,
your call is interrupted; you and the other party cannot hear each other.
You will hear feature dial tone.
2. Dial #46. LCD telephones prompt you to “ENTER ACCOUNT CODE
NOW.”
3. Enter the account code digits. The prompt disappears upon entry of the
first account code digit. After the account code is entered, the connection
is restored and the LCD shows the time.

Automatic Callback

When you reach a busy station, you can set Automatic Callback to have the
system monitor the busy extension and notify you when it becomes idle.
Automatic Callback can place you in queue for an available outside line, if you
reach a line group in which all lines are busy. When a station or line becomes
available, the system rings your telephone; when you answer the system
automatically rings the intended destination. The amount of time the system
will wait for an idle destination is set in system programming. Automatic
Callback is also known as “CO Line Queuing.”

Set Automatic Callback

1. If you hear a busy tone after dialing an outside line access code or a
station number, press Auto Callback or 4. Busy tone stops, followed by
success tone, then busy tone resumes.
2. Hang up. You can make other calls while waiting.
3. When the called station or outside line becomes idle, your telephone rings
and you will see a fast flashing LED.
•

If you called a busy station, the extension LED flashes green
(incoming call) and the called number displays.

•

If you called a busy outside line, the extension LED flashes green
(incoming call rate). The seized line’s number displays.

4. Answer within about three rings (can be programmed to ring up to three
minutes) to prevent the callback from being cancelled. After you answer,
you hear ring back tone, and the LED flashes green (in-use).
If you hear a busy tone after answering a callback, the called party is already
on another call or the line has already been seized or has received an
incoming call. Your request is not cancelled. You will be called again the next
time a line becomes idle.
If you were attempting to make an outside call, the telephone number is
automatically dialed, including the account code or override codes that were
used.
Cancel Automatic
Callback
Deactivate Automatic
Callback

Press Auto Callback or extension button + #431.
To deactivate Automatic Callback, press the ACB button while its lamp is lit.
When a predetermined time (overall timer) passes after Automatic Callback is
activated, the system automatically cancels Automatic Callback. If the
activator does not answer Automatic Callback for a predetermined time,
Automatic Callback is automatically canceled. In either case, when Automatic
Callback is completed or canceled, the ACB lamp button turns off.

Privacy

Privacy controls the ability of more than one person to use the same
extension at the same time. Privacy applies to multiple appearances of
extensions, Phantom extensions, outside Lines, and outside Line Group
buttons. The application of Privacy to individual telephones is controlled in
system programming.
By default, the system is private. If you are in a conversation, another
telephone with an appearance of the line on which you are talking cannot
intrude unless that telephone has been programmed for Privacy Override. In
that event, the other telephone may enter and leave the conversation at will. If
all users are provided with Privacy Release in Class of Service, the system
will function as non-private.
Your telephone may be equipped with a Privacy Release and/or a
Privacy on Line button. On a normally private telephone, Privacy
Release allows other appearances of your line to join the conversation. On a
normally non-private telephone, Privacy on Line allows you to exclude
others. The Privacy condition may be toggled at any time during a
conversation. At the end of the conversation, the line’s privacy condition
returns to its original state.

Uniform Call
Distribution

Uniform Call Distribution (UCD) provides ACD-like service based on the
simplified Distributed Hunt feature. Incoming calls are answered by Voice Mail
as the Auto Attendant function or they can be directly routed to the UCD
(Distributed Hunt) Pilot number. The caller will dial the UCD Pilot station in
response to a prompt. The call will go to the next agent or, if all agents are
busy, the call will camp-on to the Distributed Hunt pilot and ring-back tone or
Music-on-Hold (MOH) will be sent.
This feature distributes incoming calls to available agents. Agents must be
logged into the group to receive UCD calls. The following illustration shows
the typical call flow for this service.
1. Agent logs into the UCD group.
The call is received from PSTN or extension.

TOSHIBA

2. The call is routed to voice mail which provides the initial greeting using the
auto attendant service.
3. The voice mail can be configured to prompt callers to enter the
destination number or to route the call to the pre-determined destination.
4. The voice mail transfers the call to the UCD pilot group.
5. According to the hunting rule (distribute), the call is delivered to an idle
agent who logs in to this hunting group.
If no agent is available in the hunting group, the call is queued to the UCD
pilot group. The caller may hear the Music on Hold (MOH) or Ring Back Tone
(RBT) depending on the configuration. If the call cannot be answered within
the preconfigured time, the call is routed to an overflow destination.

Login and Logout is controlled by the Login key assigned to the agent phone.
The Log status is displayed on the Login key as shown below
•

•

Logout - Key is Off

The Login/Logout feature is applied to the call which terminates to UCD pilot
only. Therefore, the call can terminate to agent Prime or Phantom PDN
directly even if the agent is in Logout state. Also, Login/Logout can be
activated by an access code. The default numbering plan is shown below.

Message notification allows you to set up a schedule where you are notified
through additional devices when new messages are received to your mailbox.
Examples of message notification include:
•

Receiving a text message to your cell phone

•

A notification to a pager

•

A call-out to another phone number (e.g., home phone)

Message notification enables you to set a day/time schedule whereby these
notifications are sent. For example, if you work from home one day a week, you
may wish to be notified at your home number if a message is left in your office
mailbox. On the weekends you may still want to know when a new message
arrives, but only wish to be notified by a text message to your cell phone. Each
separate notification is set up through a separate “notification Line.”
Depending on your organization, you may have access to set up message
notification directly, or your system administrator may need to set up message
notification for you. Once message notification is set up, you can activate and
deactivate this feature through your mailbox.

To Activate or

Call Manager Basics

The IPedge Call Manager works with Net Server to provide a powerful "PCPhone" to enhance productivity for telephone users.
The Call Manager is designed to run on a PC with Microsoft® Windows XP,
Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows 7
operating systems connected to a standard TCP/IP network with the Net Server.
The Net Server must be installed with the proper software license(s) for Call
Manager to operate correctly. Call Manager will operate in Demo Mode if the
appropriate licenses are unavailable. Demo mode lets you use the software for
Demonstration purposes only for a limited period of time.
There are two levels of IPedge Call Manager:
•

Call Manager Standard version is free to all users of the IPedge system. The
license (I-CM-STD1) for Call Manager Standard is included in the user license
bundle at no additional charge.

•

Call Manager Advanced version provides enhanced functionality, including full
Unified Communications (UC). Purchase Call Manager Advanced license
(I-CM-1) when full UC capabilities are required.

Note:

All Call Manager user features are described. They may or may not work
depending on the license.

Call Manager provides the following major functions:

Using Call Manager Features

Viewing Extra Call
Information

Call Manager has the ability to attach, retain, and display extra information
taken on a call. This could include information input by an IVR, added/
attached information by the Call Router, attached from a database, or added
by any user who handled the call. This information is retained with the call as
it is transferred about in the phone system. The following Call Info icons are
displayed in the Calls window or LCD Display to indicate the presence of
additional information. The icon changes color depending upon the
information available:
•

– No call information attached to this call.

•

– Normal call information attached to this call.

•

– At least one field of priority call information is attached.

To View Call Information
Right click the “Call Info” icon

on the right side of the Call key for the

desired call. This window can contain many different fields depending on your
configuration and the call information attached. Note: These windows can
automatically popup whenever a new call arrives by using the Popup Call Info
Screen action in the Personal Call Handler.

To Add or Change Information
1. With the “Call Info” window open, place the cursor into the box to be
changed and use the keyboard to add or erase information.
Note:

The ability to add or change information is controlled by Preferences
> General > Extra Info settings.

2. Click the Update button to save the new information. Once changed,
other programs will use this information. For example, the call is being
screened and transferred into an ACD queue; the caller could define a
Preferred Agent by entering an agent’s ID into the Preferred Agent
Information field. When the call is transferred this information is available
to be used by the ACD application.

Defining a Local Dialing
Plan

Each area of the US uses a different set of rules for determining which calls
are local calls or long distance. For your area, a good source for determining
how to define your dialing plan, use the opening pages of your phone book.
These pages generally define how to dial different areas and provide a listing
of prefix codes for the local calling areas. Three typical examples are:
1. Phoenix, AZ – all calls within the “602”, “480”, and “623” area codes are
considered to be local calls, while all calls outside those area codes are
considered long distance.
2. Santa Fe, NM – calls to some office codes within the “505” area code are
considered to be local calls, while other calls to the “505” area code are
considered long distance.
3. Atlanta, GA – all calls to area codes “770” are considered to be local calls
while some calls to the “404” and “678” area codes are also considered to
be local calls.
If you chose to use the Local Dialing Plan, you need to create a dialing plan. If
you chose SERVER Dial Plan, then you should check with your System
Administrator if you have questions.

Home Area Code – Set this to the Area code where the phone is located. This
will be used by Call Manager to determine which dialed calls are within your
home area code and when searching a contact manager (reverse screenpop) the dialed number will need the area code included, i.e. Microsoft
Outlook. This is a duplicate of the entry to the one made in the Dialing Tab,
thus the value entered previously will show here.

•

All Home Area Code Numbers Local? – Select either All Calls in my Area
Code or only Calls to these Office Codes.

Local Office Codes – This entry is only presented if you chose Call to these
Office Codes in the previous step. The pull down listing shows the exchange
codes (prefix codes) that are considered to be a local call from your location.
Click the C button to display the “Change Dial Rules” screen.
•

To Add Local Prefix Codes – Enter the prefix code and click Add. The
wild card character ‘#’ can be entered at the end of a prefix code entry
to represent a range of codes. For example, 75# would represent all
codes 750 to 759 and 7## would represent codes 700 to 799.

•

To Delete Local Prefix Codes – Highlight a prefix entry and click
Delete button. The delete button removes the entire entry from the
list, thus if the entry has a wild card, then it removes all codes
represented by the wild card character.

•

To Delete a Specific Prefix Code – To delete one prefix code that is
part of a range of codes entered using a wild card character, enter the
prefix code to be considered not local in the Long Distance box and
click Add. For example, if prefix code 755 is long distance but all other
75# codes are local, first enter 75# into the local list and the add 755
as Long Distance – the resulting local list will be 750, 751, 752, 753,
754, 756, 757, 758 and 759.

•

Dial Area Code on Local Calls – Enable this feature in areas, such as Atlanta,
where you must always dial the full 10-digit phone number (include the area
code) even when the call is local. Most areas of the US, local calls do not
include the area code and dial only 7 digit numbers for local calls. Any number
dialed from another program or hot key dialing will be down to its base 7 digits
by removing the Home Area Code before it is dialed.

This chapter shows how to use and add, delete or edit button and button banks.

Programmable
Buttons

To access Buttons
There are three methods to access buttons:
1. Click on the Personal Call Handler button

and then the Buttons tab.

2. There are nine preloaded buttons at the center of the Call Manager screen
(shown below).

3. Only the More Buttons companion application tabs have more buttons. These
buttons can also be undocked using the dock / undock

button on the

left. You can create tabs of more buttons. There are 8 banks with a total of up
to 64 buttons each. Each Buttons application can be assigned to one of these

Buttons
8 banks, which means the buttons in that bank are displayed in the
application (No two applications can share the same bank).

User Programmable
Keys

126

The Call Manager has many different User Programmable keys on the main
screen, on the Side Window, or on the Extra Button windows. These keys and
can be easily configured by the user as “Feature” keys, “Speed Dial” keys,
“User Action” keys, “DSS” keys, “Web Access” keys, “Run another
Application” keys, or “ACD” keys, etc. This provides the user with one-touch
access to features, applications, files, phone numbers, employees, and more.
To change any of these keys simply right-click the mouse over the key and
select from the menu one of the following options:

To Initialize Key

This resets the key to a blank default state. This makes it much easier to use
the drag and drop techniques for setting up keys.

To Swap Keys

To swap the configuration of two programmable keys you can right click on a
button, then select the Swap Keys option, then click on another button. Notice
that the button has now been swapped. To do this, hold the Control key down
while using the left mouse button to drag a key to another location. Or select
Swap Keys and then drag & drop key to new location. Keys will swap within
the same window and between any other button window.

To Copy This Key

To Copy the configuration of one programmable key to another hold the
keyboard Control and Shift keys down while using the left mouse button to
drag the key to be copied to its target. Or select Copy This Key and then drag
& drop to new location. Keys will copy within the same window and between
the Side window and the Main Screen. Keys on the Main Screen or the Side
window will not copy to keys on the Extra Buttons windows or vice versa.

To Change Key

This opens the Setup Key configuration settings shown below. Several items
in the upper portion of this window define the appearance and label of the
button. Selecting an Action from the pull down listing will present additional
parameters needed to define the choice. Details for each Action follow this
procedure.

•

Action – Choose an action to be performed. This selection will open additional
settings corresponding to that action. See the settings below for the different
possible actions.

Feature Code Keys

Provides one-button access to a Feature Code on the system. You can include
additional digits when appropriate. The system used will determine access to the
Feature Codes available. For example, to log into ACD Group x2000, you could
set the Parameter to “326 2000” to work as a Log In key.

Speed Dial Keys

Creates a speed dial key for one-button dialing. Call Manager automatically
inserts the Trunk Access Code when a Dial Plan has been specified, making it
unnecessary to enter this code in the speed dial number. Speed Dial numbers can
be any number 0~9 and * and # digits. You can include commas to insert a 2second pause in the dial string, i.e., setting up a key to call V-mail (x2502) and
logon to a mailbox (1000 with password 12345) then enter “2502, *1000,12345”.

Buttons
You can also include an “X” character in a phone number string to have the
dialing stop at that point and queue up the rest of the number in the dial buffer.
The user can listen to the call and click the Dial button to dial the rest of the
digits at the appropriate time. Examples include: (1) dialing a person who has
an extension number (i.e. “4969040 x1008”), (2) dialing a pager and you want
to display a number on the LCD of the pager (i.e. “5551234x4969040#”), or
(3) dialing a long distance access code (i.e. “8884083279 x17135551234”).
Note: You can use more than one “X” in the phone number and it will wait
after each “X” (i.e. “4969040 x8 x*1009,1234”).

System/PBX Command
Keys

The System/PBX command keys are maintained for backward compatibility. It
is highly recommended that the user create User Defined Actions for System/
PBX Commands. The User Defined Actions have expanded the options
available for a number of these commands and thus offer better choices.
The description below shows the possible features that appear in the Setup
Key window. Some of the features listed are dependant upon Call Manager
System Administration settings such as the Auto Call Record/Tracer
Recording features, which only appear when the System Administrator
enables those items. Others are dependant upon the PBX used by Call
Manager.

Actions

You can define powerful actions that can be used with both the Personal Call
Handler and under the Programmable Keys. These actions can be as simple as
playing a .WAV file to as powerful as sending a specific DDE message to another
programs to “Screen Pop” a database. When defining a new action, it's usually a
good idea to test the action to make sure it works correctly. The screens for
creating actions also provide a testing facility to make this testing easy.
Note:

Creating Actions

Depending on your configuration you may not be able to change the
User-Defined Actions, in which case you should check with your System
Administrator.

The Creating of Actions can be done by going to the Actions tab.

Under the Actions List, a the drop down shows a listing of currently defined
actions and options that you can Add, Copy, Edit/Test or Delete. Pressing the Add,
Copy, or Edit/Test buttons takes you to a screen for creating or editing an action.
The types of actions that can be created are defined below. When actions are
copied, created, or edited, those changes are stored in the compiled actions file
(NET_PHN.acs). If this file is lost for some reason and Call Manager is restarted,
all actions will revert to the individual actions stored in the User’s Local Settings
Call Manager folder. Thus, it is wise to save new actions by exporting the action
for backup (see “Exporting Actions and Importing Actions).

Send Keystrokes to
a Program

This action provides a way to send keystrokes to another Windows program
just as if the user typed them into that program. This can be used, for
example, to pop up another program whenever a call rings in.
Note:

Use this action carefully because when the action is triggered, the
keystrokes will be sent to the target program regardless of the state of
that program (i.e. even when the user is in the middle of some action
in that program).

•

App Title – must exactly match the text in the title bar of the target
program (not case sensitive).

•

Key Strokes – You can send any keys including special keys (see below).
One or more characters represent each keystroke. To specify a single
keyboard character, use the character itself. For example, to represent
the letter A, use “A” for key text. If you want to represent more than one
character, append each additional character to the one preceding it. To
represent the letters A, B, and C, use “ABC” for key text.

•

Run Program if Not Running – If the target program is NOT found
running, you can have the action attempt to automatically start the
program.

•

Program EXE – Enter the path to the program to be run and a commandline parameter when needed to the target program for startup. Use a
forward slash after the EXE name and before the command line
parameter(s).

Example Action:
The example in the diagram sends keystrokes to the Notepad program to
Popup (restore) the program and to move the cursor to the end of the file.
1. App Title: The App Title must match exactly what appears in the title bar
of Notepad: calls.txt - Notepad
2. Key Strokes: To restore Notepad (Alt Sp R): Key Strokes:= %%{ }R and
to move to the end of the file (Control+End): append to Key Strokes:
^{END}
3. In Program EXE: Enter program name and file name to open
“Notepad.exe /calls.txt”.
Note:

142

The forward slash after “Notepad.exe” is needed to allow the
command-line parameter “/calls.txt” to be used. The result is that the
file “calls.txt” will open, if not open, and popup with the cursor at the
end of the file allowing additional entries to be made.

Exporting
Actions

Once an action has been designed, exporting the action is recommended to
provide a backup copy as well as a file that can be copied to other Call Managers.
To export an action, you will need to be in the Add/Edit Action screen and click the
Show Test button to reveal the testing parameters and the Export Action button.
Pressing Export Action copies the details of the action into a special file named:
xx.ACI where 'xx' is a number assigned by the software corresponding to the
action number (i.e. 2.ACI).
This file is exported into the user’s application data folder (typically,
“C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application
Data\Toshiba\Strata Call Manager”). In order to identify the file more easily you
may want to user Explorer to rename that file to something more appropriate (i.e.
PLAYBELL.ACI). When renaming an action file always limit the file name to 8
characters prior to the .ACI extension. This file can then be copied to another PC
to give a copy of the action to another user of Call Manager. Leaving a copy in this
folder provides a backup copy of the action. That will be then be loaded at startup
if that action were deleted in the Actions List (see Importing Actions below for
more details).
Note: When exporting an action, if a file with that name already exists, an error
message will occur and the action will not be copied – when this occurs you will
need to use Explorer to rename the existing file and then export again.

Importing
Actions

When the Call Manager program starts up, it automatically imports actions from
the compiled NET_PHN.ACS action file plus all action files (*.ACx) it finds in its
startup folder. The last character used in the extension of the file name defines
how the action file is treated on importing:
•

.ACI – These files are individual actions created by Exporting Actions. These
will be imported only when an action using the same action name does not
exist in the compiled file. Thus, when this file exists and the user had made
changes to this action, the user can revert back to the original operation by
deleting the current action in Call Manager then stopping and restarting Call
Manager.

•

.AC1 – Upon startup, Call Manager always imports all “One-Shot” action files
(*.AC1). When an action of the same name exists, the action will be
overwritten. Once imported, the One-Shot export files are deleted. These
one-shot files can thus be used to import an action just one time allowing the
user to change or delete the action as desired.

•

.ACO – Upon startup, Call Manager always imports all “Over-Write” action
files and overwrites any action with the same name. These are useful to
ensure the actions do not get changed or when making corrections on other
Call Managers.

•

.AC0 – This type of file is only imported at initial startup of the Call Manager or
when the compiled actions file “AGT_PHN.ACS” is not found at startup.

These files allow you to design an action, export it, rename it, and then copy the
file to all PCs that need that action. These are also useful to overcome a user
accidentally deleting an action since they can have a copy of that file on their PC,
when they exit and restart Call Manager that action will be restored.

Testing Actions

While in the Add/Edit Action screen, a Show Test/Hide Test button is offered.
Pressing this button when it is titled Show Test, will expand the window to a
set of “Test Values” that can be set representing the variables used within the
action. This sets the values of any real time variables for testing your action.
For example, if your action will be using the “Phone Number” variable (%P,
%H, or %J) you will want to set the test value of %P to the phone number you
want to simulate (i.e. 7145551234). Then press the Perform Test button to
test your action. The “Test Results” screen will show the results of the test and
if the action fails, you can change the parameters of the action and test again.
When another application is involved in the action, that application, in general,
will need to be installed and running to perform the test. Pressing the button
titled Done Testing will close the “Test Window”.
Note:

152

If the action seems to work fine when you test it from this screen, but
doesn't seem to work properly when the action is used by the Call
Handler you may want to open the Main Menu Icon > Setup >
Advanced > Show Events screen (see your System Administrator if
you do not have the Advance menu item) to see what is actually
occurring when that action is being used.

Personal Call Handler

Personal Call
Handler

This powerful feature of Call Manager allows you to create Call Handling Rules to
automatically take actions when certain events occur and specific conditions are
true. That is, you create a rule so that (1) when an Event occurs, and (2) if certain
conditions are true, and then (3) perform specific Actions. Following are a few
examples of what you can accomplish with these Rules:
•

When an Outside call with CallerID rings and I'm not on another call, popup
Microsoft Outlook and lookup the caller info in the database.

•

Whenever I answer a call without CallerID, automatically present a screen so
I can type in the caller info for that call.

•

Whenever I dial a call, automatically present a screen so I can type in the
name for that call.

•

When that nagging broker calls, immediately transfer him to my voice
mailbox.

•

I’m working on an important project, so whenever anyone other than my boss
calls, immediately transfer them to V-mail.

•

When my spouse calls, if I haven't answered the call within 5 seconds, play a
special tone on my PC to alert me.

Note:

Depending on your configuration you may not be able to change the Call
Handler Rules, in which case you should check with your System
Administrator.

The basic process for creating Personal Call Handling rules is to first define the
actions you would like to accomplish and test them. Then you can create a
Personal Call Handling Rule and choose which event will trigger the action(s) and
then refine this by setting the conditions for when the trigger will occur.

Creating Personal
Call Handling Rules

The following items will define how to edit, delete or add new rules. Many
rules can be created and exist simultaneously. To allow rules to be defined
and not applied, an enable/disable check box appears before each rule to
make it easy to disable or enable different rules are different times.
The order of the listing of the rules determines the sequence the rules will be
used. Thus, some rules may prevent following rules to be used. For example,
if the first rule in the list causes the call to divert to another station followed by
a rule to Screen Pop Outlook, then the Screen Pop will never take place. If the
rules were reversed, then the Screen Pop will take place prior to the call being
diverted. In either case, the user may not see the Screen Pop since the call
will leave this station, thus the Screen Pop will likely disappear as well. For
the user to see who is calling and provide an ability to answer the call or “do
nothing”, then creating the Screen Pop to occur immediately and the Call
Divert action to occur using a time delay, then the two rules would result in
displaying the Screen Pop and then pausing before diverting the call.
Note:

This example was for illustration purposes. These two actions can
actually be done within a single rule to make the creating of rules
simpler.

Like Matches

When you design a Rule to trigger using a Specific Number (for the CallerID
number or Account number) or on a Specific Name (for the CallerID name) you
can design the rule to either search for an exact match or a “LIKE” match. A
“LIKE” match simply uses wildcard characters in the string that you specify to
accept a range of values. The following wildcards are available:
?Any single character
*Zero or more characters
#Any single digit (0-9)
Example 1: To trigger on any caller from your area code 602: Set the Specific
Number on Caller ID Number to: 602*
Example 2: To trigger on any caller from your local office code 496: Set the
Specific Number on Caller ID Number to: 602496?
Example 3: To trigger on any caller with a caller ID name starting with C: Set the
Specific Name on Caller ID name to: C*.

Unlike Matches

In addition, you can precede any of the search strings with the characters <> to
request all matches that “aren't equal” or “aren't Like”.
Example: To trigger on any caller from NOT from your area code 602: Set the
Specific Number on Caller ID Number to: <>602*.
3. Apply User-Defined Actions – This section will define how to apply the UserDefined Actions to a Personal Call Handling Rule.

Export Rules

Once a rule has been designed, exporting the rule is recommended to provide a
backup copy and that file can be copied to other Call Managers. To export a rule,
you will need to be in the Add/Edit Rule screen and click the Export Rule button.
Pressing Export Rule copies the details of the rule into a special file named:
xx.RUI where 'xx' is a number assigned by the system corresponding to the rule
number (i.e. 2.ACI).
The file is exported into the user’s application data folder (typically,
“C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Toshiba\Strata Call
Manager”). In order to identify the file more easily you may then want to user
Explorer to rename that file to something more appropriate (i.e. PLAYBELL.RUI).
When renaming a rule file always limit the file name to 8 characters prior to the
.RUI extension. This file can then be copied to another PC to give a copy of the
rule to another user of the Call Manager. Leaving a copy in this folder will provide
a backup copy of the rule that will be loaded at startup of Call Manager if that rule
had been somehow deleted in the Personal Call Handler Rules List (see
Importing Rules below for more details).
Note:

Importing Rules

When exporting a rule, if a file with that name already exists, an error
message will occur and the rule will not be copied – when this occurs you
will need to use Explorer to rename the existing file and then export
again.

When the Call Manager program starts up, it automatically imports rules from the
compiled NET_PHN.RUL rules file plus all rule files (*.RUx) it finds in its startup
folder. The last character used in the file name extension defines how the rule file
is treated when
importing:

•

.RUI – These files are individual rules created by exporting. These will be
imported only when a rule using the same name does not exist in the
compiled file. Thus, when this file exists and the user made changes to this
rule, the user can revert back to the original operation by deleting the current
rule in Call Manager then stopping and restarting Call Manager.

•

.RU1 – Upon startup, Call Manager always imports rules from all “One-Shot”
rule files (*.RU1). When a rule with the same name exists, the rule will be
overwritten. Once imported, the One-Shot export file is deleted. These oneshot files can thus be used to import a rule just one time allowing the user to
change or delete the rule as desired.

•

.RUO – Upon startup, Call Manager always imports all “Over-Write” rule
files, which overwrites any rule of the same name. These files can be useful
to ensure the rules do not get changed or when wanting to make the same
update on other Call Managers.

•

.RU0 – These are another type of rule file that is imported only at initial startup
of the program or when the compiled rules file “AGT_PHN.RUL” is not found
at startup.

These types of files allow you to design a rule, export it, rename as needed and
then copy the exported file to all PCs that need that rule. These are also useful to
overcome a user accidentally deleting a rule, since exiting and restarting Call
Manager will restore that rule.

Using Microsoft Outlook

Dialing from within
Outlook

When Outlook Phone Link has been installed, a "Phone Icon" will appear on your
Outlook main Tool bar. Then when you are in any Outlook Contacts folder and
you have a contact highlighted, you can press this button to dial. A dialing screen
will pop up showing each of the phone numbers available for that contact. Simply
select the appropriate phone number and press the Call button to place the call.
Note: Please refer to the on-line help file in Outlook Phone Link for available
dialing options.
When the call is being dialed in Call Manager, the name from the Contact will be
automatically attached to the phone call (for display on the LCD, the Call Key,
SMDR, etc).

Incoming Calls

Using the Personal Call Handler you can set up a rule(s) to automatically run the
"Lookup In Outlook" action. This action will then lookup the phone number in
Outlook and, depending on how your action is configured, will pop open a Contact
and/or a Journal.

Note:

IPedge UG

06/11

If you setup a rule to trigger on "When Ringing", you may NOT want to
have the action automatically open a Contact or Journal because it will do
this for every matching call whether you are present or not. So, if while
you're away from your desk, you have missed 20 outside calls that rang
on your phone, you could have 20 different Contact screens and 20
Journal screens popped up on your PC screen. A better alternative is to
have your "When Ringing..." trigger use Pop User Options instead of the
Open Contact or Add Contact or Add Journal options. Now, when a call is
ringing on your phone, a small "User Options" window will pop up showing
the Contacts that match the phone number (if any) as well as buttons that
let you manually "Open/Add Contact" or "Add Journal".

With this, you can see the information about who is calling and then can
manually open a Contact or Journal. If opening a contact/journal manually is
not desirable, you could also have a 2nd 'trigger/action' so that when you
"Answered" a call it would automatically open a Contact and/or Journal as
desired.

While on a Call

Whenever you are on a telephone call (incoming or outgoing) you can rightclick on the call (Call Information or LCD Display window) and select “View
Info” to pop up the Standard Call Info screens shown below. Within these
screens, buttons are offered to Open Contact, create a New Contact, Lookup
the person in Outlook, or open a Journal (Add Journal) entry in Outlook.
These screens can also automatically pop up by setting up a Personal Call
Handler rule using a trigger to run the "Popup Call Info Screen" action (i.e.
whenever you answer a call). A feature may also be available to you,
depending upon support for your system, to divert the call (Divert Call) to
another destination.

Appointment as part of the message. On the DSS key, the first line and second
line are appended to each other, thus the preset Status Message can be modified
to become something very simple to allow for the Subject to become the
predominant part of the message.

The second Action will clear the message when the appoinment ending time is
reached.

Create Personal Call
Handler Rules

Two Personal Call Handler Rules will be needed, both using the Outlook
Calendar Appointment event which sends a message when an appointment
starts and a second when it ends. In this example, I want to trigger the setting
of the DSS message for any Calendar Status to ensure all appointments are
reflected and also for any Event Importance and any Subject. These items
are part of the appointment created in Outlook Calendar. When this event
triggers, I want to use the first Action that I created which sets a message “In
Meeting” and appends the Subject line to the message to be displayed.

The second rule will trigger only when the Appointment sends an indication of
the Appointment be set to a “Free” status. The action is to turn off the DSS
message.

The Final PCH Rules

166

The main thing is to ensure that the PCH rule to “Clear DSS Message” must
follow “Set DSS Message”. If not, the “Set DSS Message” triggers on ‘any’
Calendar Status including ‘Free’ and the clear command would be followed by
a command to set the message, thus the message would never clear. The
final set of PCH rules should be in the order of items 3 and 4 in the PCH
Rules screen.

ACD Viewer

The Call Manager ACD Viewer program allows Call Manager users
connected to Strata ACD to view the status of all ACD groups in which they
are members. It shows the operating status of each group and as the group
becomes busier it changes colors and can provide warning sounds to alert
you of status changes. You can expand each group view to see the number
of calls and the status of each of the agents and supervisors in the group.
Each group contains a “My Status” icon showing your own status in the group
(logged in, logged out, busy, in wrap-up, etc.), and when you right-click on
your icon you can change your status.
The ACD Viewer is fully integrated with the Call Manager Chat so you can
easily place a chat call to a supervisor or another agent by simply rightclicking on that person’s icon. Plus you can broadcast a chat notification to all
agents and supervisors in the group.
ACD Viewer appears by default as a companion application tab.

ACD Group
Status

This section allows you to setup how ACD viewer changes ACD group status
based on activity conditions. Different colors represent the different status
conditions of (how busy is) each ACD group. Yellow and Red represent warning
and urgent status levels respectively and can be specifically configured to decide
when those levels should be reached.

Urgent Status (Red)

This is the highest level status of a queue and should typically be reached when
the load or conditions in the ACD queue indicates a problem that needs attention.
You can select up to two conditions so that whenever either of these conditions
are met the ACD Group Status button will turn Red. In addition to these two
conditions, this status will automatically be reached whenever the queue is
enabled but there are NO agents available. Available conditions are:
Calls Waiting > ’x’ calls
Longest Waiting Call > ’x’ Secs
Waiting Calls / Agent > ’x’ %

Warning Status

This is the 2nd highest level status of a queue and should typically be reached
when the load in the ACD queue is approaching a problem level. You can select
up to two conditions so that whenever either of these conditions are met the ACD
Group Status button will turn Yellow. The available conditions are:

Collapsed View

If on your system each Agent ID is the same as his/her PBX extension you
should enable the “PBX extensions correspond to Agent IDs” option. That is
agent ID “100” uses PBX extension “100”, agent ID “105” uses PBX extension
“105, etc. With this type of installation, you will be able to place a chat call
(or chat broadcast message) to an agent even when he/she is not Logged In
to an ACD group.

This section describes how to use the ACD Viewer for both agents and
supervisors.
The ACD Viewer starts out with a ‘collapsed’ view of each ACD queue. This
takes up very little screen space but still provides a high-level status of each
of your ACD groups. That is, the ACD Status View window displays one line
for each of the ACD Groups of which you are a member. The ACD Group
Name, Queue Number, and Status (Enabled or Disabled) are displayed. If the
queue is on a schedule, the time the queue will be enabled/disabled by the
schedule is displayed.
Each ACD queue has an activity LED that changes colors based on the status
of the queue:
Gray (Idle) = no calls active (or waiting) and at least 1 agent logged-in and
available.
Green (Active) = at least one call active but no calls waiting and at least one
agent logged-in and available.
Yellow (Warning) = Default: one call waiting and at least one agent logged in.
But this threshold is configurable.

Call Manager Chat is designed to operate with other Windows applications.
For example, a user of a phone program, such as Call Manager, may want to
press a button to immediately open a chat window with your ACD supervisor
when you're on an Urgent Call. Or you may want to coordinate the DND
settings of your phone with the DND of Chat. Or you may need to periodically
send a broadcast message to a group of people based upon a trigger such as
a meeting reminder. These types of operations are supported by a DDE
Command interface. This section defines the format for the DDE Command
Interface, its supported commands with examples with how they can be used.

Other programs can be setup to send DDE commands to trigger actions in Chat to
perform a set of functions. The basic format for this DDE command is as follows:
•

Application Name: MSGPOP

•

Topic: SYSTEM

•

DDE Execute String:

Format: CALLEXT, Ext #, Msg_Type, "Message", Send_Option where:
•

CALLEXT = The command name.

•

Ext # = the extension number of the person to chat with. If you leave
this blank, the main Chat window will pop up and allow you to
manually select the person.

•

Msg_Type = leave blank, future feature.

•

“Message” = Message to be sent. When using Call Manager, call and
system variables can be used in the message.

•

Send_Option = I or C
•I – send message immediately
•C (or blank) – type message into user buffer but wait for user to
press SEND

Example: The user sits at the front door and acts as the receptionist and needs to
inform people when someone is waiting in the lobby.
1. In Call Manager create a User Defined Action using the type Send
DDE Msg and name it appropriately.
In App Name|Topic enter: MSGPOP|SYSTEM
In DDE Message enter: CALLEXT,,,"Your visitor is waiting in the
Lobby",I
NoteNo extension was specified to allow the person to choose whom the
message is to be sent.

2. Choose a key on Call Manager, right-click and select Change Key.

press SEND

Example: Agents in a Call Center want to quickly notify the supervisor that an
abusive caller is on the phone. The supervisor’s name is Jan and the persons
phone number (formatted for easier reading) and name should be included

DND_State = Enter “ON” for turning on DND or “OFF” when turning
off DND.

•

“Message” = Enter the text message to be sent to callers reaching

only), then the message previously used will be displayed without
change.

Example: The Call Manager user would like to have Chat DND follow the status
of Call Manager’s DND status automatically when Call Manager is changed. In
this case, Chat should be in DND when the user is in a meeting. Chat should
reflect the same message that is seen on Call Manager DSS keys.
1. In Call Manager create a User Defined Action using the type Send
DDE Msg and name it appropriately.
In App Name|Topic enter: MSGPOP|SYSTEM
In DDE Message enter: DND,OFF,

2. In Call Manager create another User Defined Action using the type
Send DDE Msg and name it appropriately.
In App Name|Topic enter: MSGPOP|SYSTEM
In DDE Message enter: DND,ON,”In Meeting Until &U+’60””
Note:

3. In Call Manager create two Personal Call Handler Rules to trigger
when the DND status changes causing Chat DND to follow Call
Manager’s DND status. The two rules are shown below.

Command 4 – Sending a
Chat/Broadcast Message

Format: ONESHOT, Ext #/“Name”, Urgency, “Message”, Timeout where:
•

ONESHOT = The command name.

•

Ext #/”Name” = The extension number or name of the individual
or group to receive the message. Examples:

>> characters as part of the name.
•

Urgency = enter H if urgent message and leave blank if normal
message.

•

“Message” = The text message to be sent.

•

Timeout = The number of seconds for popup to expire. If left
blank it will be set to the default of 60 seconds.

Example: The Tech Support Manager schedules Group Meetings with his
staff. He wants to use Outlook to schedule the meeting and use the Outlook
Reminder to send a Chat Broadcast to his group a few minutes before the

The Dialer allows Call Manager users to easily schedule phone calls to be
placed later. For example, when a sales representative arrives in the morning
he may know he needs to make calls to 15 of his customers, so from MS
Outlook he can drag/drop the contact information of all 15 of the customers
into his Dialer. When the designated time arrives for each call to be placed the
user will be presented with a pop-up screen alerting him it’s time to place the
call. Once the call is finished, the user will be presented with another pop-up
screen requesting information about whether the call was successful and if
not whether it should called again later (for example if the party was busy).

Methods for Adding Calls

Often times you may want to add multiple calls from contact or call
information that might be contained in other applications. The Dialer provides
a couple of ways to accomplish this.
Drag-and-Drop from MS Outlook
If you are using Microsoft Outlook, you can simply select one or more of your
contacts in your Outlook Contacts database and simple use the mouse to
drag them over and drop them on the power dials “Calls Window”. Each
contact will then be individually added to the power dialer allowing you to
specify the date/time of each call to be placed.
Drag-and-Drop from Call Manager Call History
Often times you may want to place a call to someone you’ve called (or who
called you) in the past. Since the Call Manager call history provides a
complete list of all calls placed and received, you can simply find the desired
call in the call history and use the mouse to drag-and-drop a copy over to the
power dialer window.
Drag-and-Drop MS Excel file
In Microsoft Excel it is quite easy to create and keep a list of desired contacts
and add them into the power dialer. In MS Excel simple create a spreadsheet

Drag-and-Drop Other files
Any program that can export contacts into a “tab-delimited” or “commadelimited” text file format can operate with the Dialer. Similar to the MS Excel
file, those files can then be dragged/dropped or automatically imported into
the power dialer.
Goldmine Export
The Goldmine contact management software provides a way to setup reusable filters and export formats as well as a way to add a “Dialer (export)”
button on the Goldmine screen. Using these features and the automatic
import feature of power dialer described above it is very easy to send a list of
Goldmine contacts directly to the power dialer to be dialed.

Configuration
Settings

The Dialer provides some configuration options for the user. To view or

Place Calls While in Do-Not-Disturb – This setting controls whether the
power dialer should attempt to place calls if the user’s phone is in Do-NotDisturb. For example the user may want to set his phone into “Do-NotDisturb” mode to stop all incoming calls but still continue using the power
dialer to place outgoing calls. Note: On some phone systems the Call

Manager cannot detect and display the Do-Not-Disturb setting of the phone,
in which case this setting has no effect.
•

Delay Between Calls – it’s often desirable to provide some “wrap-up” time
after the last call before dialing the next call. This value is used to provide this
time delay between calls placed by the power dialer.

•

Play Sound – on a sound-equipped PC, the user may want to play a selected
WAV file to alert him/her whenever a call is ready to be placed. This feature
and the desired WAV file can be set up here.

•

Delay Before Requesting Call Result – it’s sometimes useful to give the
user some “wrap-up” to finish up some activity in another application before
requesting the result of the call. This value is used to provide this time delay
after the call ended before requesting the user to enter the result.

•

Clear Out Completed Calls – When calls have been completed, they will still
appear in the calls window, but they will be automatically cleaned-out based
on this setting.

The Call Manager provides a “Call History” feature for more permanent
storage of calls placed and received. The settings options are as follows:
•

Hourly

•

Daily

•

Weekly

•

Monthly

Overdue calls – when a call is due to be placed, it will only be placed if the
power dialer is enabled and the phone status is idle (and possibly not in DoNot-Disturb). Thus, since the power dialer will wait until dialing conditions are
true, the date/time selected for a call to be placed may pass by, and the
settings in this area pertain to those calls:
•

Calls are Overdue if more than ‘x’ minutes past due – This setting is
used to designate how long “Due Now” calls should wait before they
are considered to be “Overdue”.

•

Place Overdue calls before “Due Now” calls – this option, when
enabled, allows the “Over Due” calls to be placed first before the “Due
Now” calls.

•

Remove Overdue calls more than ‘x’ days past due – If the dialer is
disabled for an excessive amount of time, the power dialer will
automatically clean out overdue calls that are way past due as
defined by this setting.

An optional user-defined button can appear on both the “Ready to Dial” and the
“Results” screens in Dialer. To setup these buttons, go to the Call Manager main
menu select Setup then Preferences, go into the Dialing Tab. Under the Dialer,
enable either or both of the “Action” buttons and select the Action to be performed

Advanced Topics
Import File format

ASCII text files can be easily imported by the power dialer as long as the file
format is as follows:
•

•

One record per line with the following fields:
•

Name – Required – must be non-blank

•

Phone – Required – must have a minimum of 4 digits – can have
punctuation {i.e. (480)496-9040}

•

Account code – Optional

•

Subject – Optional

•

Date – Optional – if not provided "Today" is assumed

•

Time – Optional – if not provided "Now plus 5 minutes" is
assumed

The fields within each record can be either Tab-delimited or commadelimited, however the entire file must be one format or the other (cannot
mix formats within a file). Comma-delimited fields can/should use
quotation marks around any field containing a comma. For example:
"Jones, Skip", 480-496-9040, 1111, "Sample 1,2,3"
•

Automatic Imports

214

A maximum of 1000 records can be imported.

The Dialer will automatically import any file in the above-described format if
the file is
(1) named with ".TXT" suffix and (2) saved into the “\PDimport” sub-folder in
the Call Manager folder. Once the file is imported, it will immediately be
deleted.

Web Browser

Call Manager provides an integrated web browser window for access to
Internet or Intranet locations, or direct access to local HTML files. In addition
to basic browsing, you can create custom web applications to extend the
functionality of Call Manager for your business.
For example, your call center could have incoming calls automatically open
the Call Manager browser window to a “Caller Survey” page. The Call Survey
page could display information about the caller and display an answering
script the agent could use to guide the conversation. The web page might
also allow the agent to enter answers from the caller into HTML forms and
submit the results to a company web server.
The Call Manager Web Window is based on Microsoft Internet Explorer. You
must have Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher installed on the PC.

CF Internal and
Line Calls

This Call Forward option allows you to forward internal calls and outside line calls
that come to your extension to another destination. The destination can be voice
mail, another telephone extension connected to your telephone system or private
network; or, an external telephone number connected through the public
telephone network.

1. Line calls are calls that come to your extension through the public telephone
network lines. If your telephone has a direct line and the “CF Direct Line Calls”
option is activated, direct line calls to your extension will forward to the “CF
Direct Line Calls” destination – not to the destination set in this option.
2. Internal calls are calls that come to your telephone from the Attendant
Console, other telephones and voice mail devices connected to your
telephone system or telephone system private network.
3. Your telephone may call forward even if you do not activate it; this is because
your system administrator has activated System Call Forward on your
telephone.

This Call Forward option allows you to forward direct line calls to another
destination. When you activate this CF option, only line calls to your direct line
telephone number will forward calls to the destination set in this option. Internal
calls will not forward to the destination set in this option. The destination can be
voice mail, another telephone extension connected to your telephone system or
private network; or, an external telephone number connected through the public
telephone network.
1. Direct Line calls are calls that ring your extension when outside callers dial
your direct line telephone number. They do not include internal calls from
telephones that dial your extension number or outside line calls that ring
multiple telephones on your telephone system.
2. When this option is activated, direct line calls forward to this destination and
ignore the destination set in the “CF Internal and Line Calls” option.
3. Internal calls are calls that come to your telephone from the Attendant
Console, other telephones and voice mail devices connected to your
telephone system or telephone system Private Network.
4. Your telephone may call forward even if you do not activate it; this is because
your system administrator has activated System Call Forward on your
telephone.
This feature enables you to assign Call Forward (CF) destinations for each
extension on your telephone that will override the telephone’s System CF settings.
