Changing Channel Parameters

The channel parameters include the interface type and its options, voice and fax settings, and voice
communications for the country and region in which the MultiVOIP is operating. The Channel Setup
dialog box is accessed by clicking Voice Channels on the Setup menu.

Interface

The Interface tab defines the parameters related to the physical interface of the voice/fax channel.
Depending on the interface type selected (FXS, FXO, or E&M), other options on the Interface tab will
turn grey (become inactive) indicating that they do not apply to the selected interface. Max Dial
Digits, Inter Digit Time, and Autocall features apply to all interface types.
If you chose an FXO or FXS dialing interface, the Dialing Options Regeneration group is enabled.
Check with your in-house phone personnel to verify whether your PBX dial signaling is Pulse or
DTMF (tone). Select the Regeneration option accordingly.
The Max Dial Digits indicates the maximum number of digits the MultiVOIP will allow you to enter
when dialing one of the numbers in the Phone Directory Database. As soon as you have entered this
number of digits, the MultiVOIP will immediately attempt to match the digits you have dialed with an
entry in the database. The range for the Max Dial Digits is from zero to 16 digits with a default of five.
The Inter Digit Time (in milliseconds) option in the Dialing Options group defines the amount of
time the MultiVOIP waits between digits as they are entered by the user. If this timer expires, the
MultiVOIP will immediately attempt to match the digits entered to an entry in the Phone Directory
Database. The range for this option is 200 to 10,000 with a default of 2,000.
The Auto Call option allows the local MultiVOIP to call a remote MultiVOIP without the user having to
dial a Phone Directory Database number. As soon as you access the local MultiVOIP voice/fax
channel, the MultiVOIP immediately connects to the remote MultiVOIP that you identified in the
Remote MultiVOIP Phone Number box of this option.
