3.2 Setting TELES.iPBX 8TR Box
The TELES.iPBX 8TR Box is set via a DTMF/“touch tone”- telephone (DTMF
= Dual Tone Multi Frequency) attached to any port of the box. Refer to user’s
manual of your telephone how to change the dialing method if necessary. As an
alternative, you can also use the device to query the answering machine re-
motely.
The
∗
and
#
-keys
:
Both keys have to exist on the telephone. All commands start
with
∗
and end with
#
.
Confirmation tone
: As soon as you’ve entered a command and the function
was activated, you hear two short consecutive tones (see manual cover).
Error tone
: If the function could not be activated or you’ve pressed the wrong
key, you will hear the busy signal – the error tone (see manual cover).
Remote administration
: Remote administration is not possible until the dial-in
call number for remote access has been set (section 6, page 51).
PC-integrated control
: Besides using a telephone for configuration, you can
also make settings using a user-friendly Windows software. All you need is an
ISDN board for your PC – e.g. a TELES.BRI board with the
TELES.OnlinePowerPack application suite. This board should be attached to the
same ISDN line as the TELES.iPBX 8TR Box (see section 8, page 58). This is
only possible on point-to-multipoint lines.
3.2.1 Hookflash Time of the R key
As in any PBX, the hold, the transfer as well as the hold and alternate functions
are also initiated in the TELES.iPBX 8TR Box by a signal that is sent to the box
when you press the R key on the telephone.
Attached analog telephones must feature such a key. The key is also known as
signal or hookflash key.
Ρ
The hookflash time of the TELES.iPBX 8TR Box is
90 - 300 ms
.
Please adjust the key to hookflash for the specified time according to
the telephone’s manual. The usual “ground” setting on older tele-
phones is not supported. The functions mentioned above will not work
if there is a deviation.
