Preliminary
In Personal Assistant modes, Tel-Lynx will ask a person calling in on a common
outside line to select a user from the list of users assigned to that line. Tel-Lynx
will then ring your telephone with a distinctive ring for the user the caller wants to
speak with. If the caller's contact info has the
person only called
attribute set, that
user is automatically selected, and their distinctive ring is used to ring your
telephone. If the call goes to voice mail, it will go to the selected user's mailbox.
 Ring Pattern Detection on your Landline
Tel-Lynx can detect different ring patterns provided by services such as
®
®
RingMaster
, Ident-a-Call, or Smart Ring
. You can set up Tel-Lynx to assign
each ring pattern to a specific Tel-Lynx user or to the anyone user. If a ring
pattern is assigned to anyone, Tel-Lynx will ask callers who they want to speak
with (this is the factory default mode). If a ring pattern is assigned to a specific
user, Tel-Lynx will automatically select that user when a call with that ring pattern
comes in.
Tel-Lynx can also be set up to ignore (not answer) a specific ring pattern.
Inside Lines
Your inside lines are connected to your telephones through a standard telephone
cord, and optionally to your PC through a USB cable.
 Ring Modes
Calls to a given user can be set to ring both inside telephone lines, one particular
inside telephone line, or one particular inside telephone line and then the other if
the first line is busy.
 Distinctive Ringing
Tel-Lynx is set up from the factory to ring your telephones with a distinctive ring
pattern for each user. You can change the ring pattern for each user, choosing
the standard ring or one of eight distinctive ring patterns. When Tel-Lynx is in a
Personal Assistant mode, it always determines who a given call is for before
ringing your telephones with a distinctive ring pattern. When Tel-Lynx is in Ring-
through mode, calls to a
common outside line
will ring with the anyone user's ring
pattern unless the caller's contact information has the "Person normally/only
called" attributes set. Regardless of the answer mode, if a caller calls in on a
personal outside line
(mobile phone), Tel-Lynx will ring your telephones with the
associated user's ring pattern.
 The Tel-Lynx Phone Book
The Tel-Lynx phone book makes it easy to place calls using names so that you
don't have to remember phone numbers (see Dial-By-Name).
There are four ways to populate your Tel-Lynx phone book with contacts:
