Support Central Service
Solo does not require a license and is available with the purchase of Digital Acoustics hardware. Solo
includes the ability to run the TalkMaster FOCUS Server software with a single Operator logged in with up
to 250 IP Endpoints. Solo can be upgraded to the Enterprise Edition by purchasing a License Key.
Enterprise requires a License Key that determines the number of IP Endpoints that can connect to the
Server as well as the number of Operators that can be signed on concurrently.
The following integrated services can be purchased and added to the License Key:

VoIP Connect - provides the ability to send live or queued audio messages to groups of IP
Endpoints from SIP based telephone systems

Automation - provides automated audio messages to groups of IP Endpoints based on RSS or
CAP Atom feeds as well as event based messages

Associated Video - Adds the ability to view Axis or RTSP based cameras in the Operator
Console
Fail Forward Overview
Digital Acoustics' IP Endpoints have patented fail forward technology, the ability to connect to an alternate
Server if the Primary Server Fails. All of the associated Consoles and Services also incorporate this
feature. Using Fail Forward improve the availability of critical communications.
In order for Fail Forward to work properly, the Primary Server and Fail Forward Server should have the
same settings (Operators, Paging Groups, Messages, etc). To facilitate this, use the File --> Export
option on the Primary Server, then use the File --> Import Settings on each of the Fail Forward Servers.
When using Fail Forward, the following criteria should be considered to determine how quickly IP
Endpoints will Fail Forward to an alternate Server:


Disconnect Time - The maximum amount of time required for an IP Endpoint or Console to
sense a disconnection with the TalkMaster FOCUS Server.

Primary Server Retry Duration - The amount of time the IP Endpoint or Console will
automatically attempt to reconnect with the Primary Server before attempting to connect to a Fail
Forward server.

Supports Auto Return - Whether the IP Endpoint or Console can automatically return to the
Primary Server when it becomes available. If Auto Return is not used, manual intervention will be
required to have the IP Endpoints and Console return to the Primary Server. For instance, the
