Telephone Lines

This section tells TalkSwitch about the telephone lines plugged into its back
panel. Select a line and fill in the information. For each line there is a status
message ("Line detected at initialization") indicating if TalkSwitch detected
a line plugged into the associated line port. If a line is plugged into a line
port and is not detected, check your telephone line and choose
File -> Retrieve Settings to update the screen.
Note: If the units are networked, you need to configure the options for
all the units. At the top of the window, select the tab for each TalkSwitch
unit (labeled 'TalkSwitch 1', 'TalkSwitch 2', etc....) and follow the
instructions below.
In the "Phone numbers" section
Enter the 'main' telephone number for the appropriate line connected to
TalkSwitch. Enable the Distinctive Ring Numbers 1 and/or 2 if you have this
service on the current line and wish to have incoming calls handled
'differently' on the basis of the distinctive ring. If you want Distinctive Ring
numbers handled the same way as your 'Main' number, do not place a check
mark in the box.
If you checked the box, enter the 'Distinctive Ring' telephone number for
each of the Distinctive Ring numbers associated with this line.
Distinctive Ring 1 corresponds to any double ring pattern.
Distinctive Ring 2 corresponds to any triple ring pattern.
