Setting Dialback
The Dialback feature is designed to have the majority of the ISDN usage charges billed to the central site.
When the user connects from the Go Online prompt or they place an outgoing call while in COD, the
Remote Module connects to the Office Module, which will then disconnect and re-establish the connection
from the central site. The user is then free to use their phone.
When this feature is enabled, there will be a delay in the set up of the connection while the Office Module
disconnects the Remote Module and reconnects from the central site. If you are using COD, the delay
between pressing a key for dial tone and receiving dial tone will be longer than when Dialback is not
enabled. If you are using COD and only making short calls with long gaps between each call, Dialback may
not be practical. All COD operations from the Office Module to the Remote Module are not affected by
Dialback.
Dialback should only be enabled when there is a lower cost for local and/or long distance ISDN calls placed
from the Office Module location than calls made from the Remote Module location. If there are ISDN usage
charges for connections made from the remote location, there will be a charge whenever the Remote Module
