External audio source
The music jack is designed to support an external audio source like a CD
player, tape player or PC media player.
Advantages: The length of the recording is not limited by the amount of
memory in the TalkSwitch units. All of the TalkSwitch memory is available
for voicemail and auto attendants. Different TalkSwitch units can have
different music on hold.
Disadvantages: Extra dedicated equipment must be connected and running
constantly. A separate sound source is required for each unit.
1. Connect the audio source via its headphone output to the music jack. Use
a cable with a 1/8" (3.5 mm) mono phono connector.
2. If your system has multiple TalkSwitch units, either use a different audio
source for each unit, or use a splitter to connect the one audio source to
each unit.
Internal audio file
You can load an audio .wav file into the TalkSwitch unit. If you have more
than one unit connected by LAN, the .wav file is automatically copied to
each unit.
Advantages: No additional equipment is required. All units use the same file,
which provides seamless music for calls transferred across the system.
Disadvantage: The length of the recording is limited by the amount of
memory in the TalkSwitch units. Less time is available for voicemail and auto
attendants.
The recording time for internal music on hold, voicemail, and the auto
attendants is two hours per TalkSwitch unit. You can expand the built-in
memory using memory cards.
NETWORKING TALKSWITCH UNITS ON A LAN
Up to four units can be networked together over a LAN to increase the
number of telephone lines and extensions in your phone system.
Connecting TalkSwitch units to a LAN
You can plug your unit(s) into your existing LAN or operate it on its own
LAN with an Ethernet switch. Ensure that the firmware on all units is
updated before adding them to the LAN.
