Setup Tab 

21 

 Click the 

Browse

 button to select a wav file when the Endpoint connects to the TalkMaster FOCUS 

Server. 

Play File at Start of Intercom Session

 - check this box to have an Intercom play a wav file when the 

Intercom's Talk button is pressed. This acknowledgement lets the Intercom User know that their call 
request has been received by the Server. Click the 

Browse

 button to select a wav file. 

Play File when Intercom is Unattended

 - check this box to have an Intercom play a wav file anytime 

then Intercom's Talk button is pressed and no Operator Console is monitoring the Intercom. Click the 

Browse

 button to select a wav file. 

The wav files sent to the Endpoints must be encoded in either 8khz 8-bit PCM or 16-bit uLaw wave 

format. 8khz 16-bit uLaw provides the best quality audio. Commercial or free software is available to 
create these format.  See application note for more information. 

  

Server Storage Path

 - Specifies the file location used by the Server to store the iArchive directory for 

Audit and Archived Audio files. If the 

Archive all

 

audio

 option is checked, the audio clips will be created 

in the iArchive directory. 

Each day, a new sub-directory is created to store the audio archives. The sub-directory name is formatted 
as YYYYMMDD where YYYY is the year, MM is the month and DD is the Day of the month. 

 

  

Each time microphone or speaker output is produced, a separate file is created using the following 
naming convention: 

 

"in-" (for audio coming in from an IP Endpoint) / "out-" (for audio going from an Operator's 
microphone) 

 

Unique ID assigned to an Operator ID 

 

Unique IP Endpoint MAC ID 

 

Time (HH:MM:SS-mmmm) 

 

.wav extension 

Use the 

Audit

 tab or the TalkMaster FOCUS Archive Viewer Console to play back the archived audio. 

To specify a network drive for any of these file locations, use UNC notation (

\\server\sharename

) and add 

the appropriate Account and Password information to the 

Log On

 tab of the 

Windows Service

 for the 

TalkMaster FOCUS Server. 

  

Text to Speech Engine

 - The Text to Speech (TTS) drop down list is used to define the Text-to-Speech 

voice engine that is available to Consoles and third party product that interface with the Server 

Select the Text-To-Speech engine to be used by clicking the Voice drop down arrow  New engines can 
be added through the Windows Control Panel by selecting the Speech option.
