Connecting TalkSwitch to a PC
There are four ways to connect TalkSwitch directly to your PC for configuration -
Serial, USB (Windows XP, 2000 excluded), Ethernet (LAN port), and remotely using
a dial up modem.
Serial:
Use the provided serial cable (RS232) to connect TalkSwitch to an
open COM port on your PC.
USB:
Use a USB cable to connect TalkSwitch to an available USB port on
your PC or USB hub.
Ethernet: With the TalkSwitch 48 models, TalkSwitch can be configured using
a PC connected to the same LAN as your TalkSwitch units. TalkSwitch
cannot be configured from the Internet.
Modem:
Using a PC with a dial up modem and running the TalkSwitch con-
figuration software, you can choose to call TalkSwitch from anywhere
in the world then connect and configure the system.
1.4.4.1 Connecting TalkSwitch to a PC using a Serial cable
If you have an available Serial port, then connect TalkSwitch to your PC using the
Serial cable provided with TalkSwitch. By default, TalkSwitch is shipped with the
Serial port enabled and the USB port disabled so you do not have to do anything to
get it working using the Serial port.
If you were previously using USB and are switching back to Serial connection, then
you will need to switch TalkSwitch back to Serial mode. Pick up a phone connected
to one of TalkSwitch’s local extensions and dial
to enter command mode. If you
have an administrator password enabled, enter the password. Dial 90 then
to
enable the Serial connection. Next, turn TalkSwitch off then back on again to
activate the Serial connection..
