1.  Will innkeeper PBX work with my ___ PBX phone system?

Probably yes. We have to say probably because the handset interface is 
proprietary and therefore can change from model to model. We have no 
way of predicting how a phone manufacturer will use the handset wires in 
the future. The three handset microphone types that we support, electret, 
dynamic and carbon, cover every handset microphone type that we have 
seen in use, but the wire diagrams can change without notice. 

2.  Will your digital hybrid provide phantom power for a  

condenser mic?

No, this device will not provide phantom power. If you are connecting your 
microphone directly to the innkeeper PBX, use a dynamic mic. 

3.  I can not dial out on my phone and I hear a lot of noise on  

the call.

The innkeeper PBX will not work with any telephone that has a keypad in 
the handset. You need to use a telephone with a standard handset.

4.  Can innkeeper PBX auto-answer or auto-disconnect?

No, the handset cord on your phone is only active if the handset is off-hook. 

This must be done manually. So there is no way to auto-disconnect. You 
must return the handset to the cradle.

5.  I have everything connected correctly. Why does the caller  

not hear me?

 

Check the position of the 

<A-B-C>

 switch (which will probably be set to 

A

 or 

C

). Also, you cannot use the speakerphone function on your telephone 

during your recording. Innkeeper PBX accesses audio through the handset 
cord. With the speakerphone turned on, there is no audio going through the 
handset. You must use a microphone.

6.  Why is there a loud hum on the output of my innkeeper PBX, 

even when nothing else is connected?

 

Make certain you are using the regulated power supply that was shipped 
with this unit. Power supplies are not all the same. 

7.  Why does my laptop only record half of the conversation? I 

am using the Stereo output on the innkeeper PBX and I have 
a stereo cable.

 

Many laptop computers only have a mic input, which is mono. If you want 
to record 2 track stereo audio, you will need to either get a sound card 
with a stereo line level input for your laptop or use a USB or FireWire 
interface product.
