Synapse User’s Guide C HAPTER 12 DESKSET-HANDSET INTERACTION Deskset-Handset Interaction This section identifies similarities and operating interactions between the SB67030 Deskset and the optional SB67040 Cordless Handset. “[Handset] Answering a Call While Another Device is on a Call” on page 238 “[Handset] Incoming Calls” on page 238 “[Handset] Held Calls” on page 238 “[Handset] Clocks” on page 239 “[Handset] Status” on page 239.
Synapse User’s Guide [Handset] Answering a Call While Another Device is on a Call The Deskset, Cordless Handset, and Cordless Headset all share the same extension number. If there is an active call, it must be placed on hold before other calls can be placed or answered by one of the other extension devices. You must also switch control to the device you want to use. [Handset] Incoming Calls An Incoming Call appears on the Deskset and Cordless Handset, and both devices emit ringtones.
Synapse User’s Guide [Handset] Clocks The Handset and the Deskset show the current date and time. The clocks on each of the devices run independently, and the system updates the real time frequently. Because the clocks are independent, there may be occasions when the time shown on each is slightly different. [Handset] Status The Handset and the Deskset show the current DND and Call Forward All status. They also show the same notifications for new calls and new messages.
Synapse User’s Guide C HAPTER 13 TROUBLESHOOTING If you have difficulty operating your system, try the following suggestions in this section: “Common Troubleshooting Procedures” on page 241 “General Troubleshooting” on page 249 “Gateway Troubleshooting” on page 259 “Deskset Troubleshooting” on page 262 “Cordless Handset Troubleshooting” on page 273 “Cordless Headset Troubleshooting” on page 281 “ATA Troubleshooting” on page 286.
Synapse User’s Guide Common Troubleshooting Procedures Follow these procedures to resolve common issues. Resolving Audio Echoes The SB67010 PSTN Gateway uses automatic telephone line calibration to ensure optimal audio performance on outside calls. If excessive echo occurs on outside calls consistently, observe the Gateway line calibration data to understand any telephone line issues. Occasional echoes may be caused by the other person’s phone. To resolve audio echo issues: 1. Log in as administrator.
Synapse User’s Guide To resolve audio echo issues: (Continued) 4. 5. If the loss number is below 10, the system will most often function normally, but there is an increased likelihood of audio performance issues like echo. If the loss number is below 10 the following procedures can be used to increase the loss value: a. Unplug that telephone line at the Gateway. b. After the line LED turns red, plug the line back in to recalibrate.
Synapse User’s Guide Resolving General Audio Issues Check the following if you hear static, sudden silences, gaps in speech, echoes, distorted speech, or garbled speech. To resolve general audio issues: You may be experiencing network problems. Your LAN administrator should ensure the following minimum guidelines are met: z A switched network topology, which requires attaching network components to switches rather than hubs, is recommended.
Synapse User’s Guide Reintroducing a Deskset Into the System If there are fewer than 51 Desksets in the system and a Deskset screen displays Synch Failed or Synchronizing... for a long time, you may need to remove the Deskset from the system and reintroduce it. This problem may have been caused by a network disruption, the Deskset having been part of a different network, or by an AC power failure. To reintroduce a Deskset into the system: 1.
Synapse User’s Guide To reintroduce a Deskset into the system: (Continued) 3. Perform a complete factory reset to return to the values set at the factory. Insert a pen or the end of a paper clip into the reset switch, located on the underside of the Deskset, as shown in Figure 329. Hold until Restoring to Factory Defaults appears on the screen (approximately 5 seconds). After the Deskset restarts, it will rejoin the system.
Synapse User’s Guide Reintroducing a Gateway or ATA Into the System If there are fewer than five Gateways in the system, and a Gateway or ATA screen displays Synch Failed or Synchronizing... for more than a few minutes, you may need to remove the Gateway or ATA from the system and reintroduce it. This problem may have been caused by the Gateway or ATA having been part of a different network or by a network disruption, which may have been caused by an AC power failure.
Synapse User’s Guide To reintroduce a Gateway or ATA into the system: (Continued) 4. Complete a factory reset to restore factory values. Insert a pen or the end of a paper clip into the reset switch (located on the front of the Gateway and ATA) and hold it for more than five seconds until the LCD displays Restoring to factory defaults. 5. Reconnect the Gateway or ATA to the network and ensure that it synchronizes with the other devices. 6.
Synapse User’s Guide Power Failure Recovery Procedure To recover after a power failure: When AC power returns after a power failure, the system self–assigns a link–local address to the Deskset beginning with number 169.254. If the Deskset is set for automatic IP address configuration, it searches for the DHCP server. If the DHCP server is found, it assigns an IP address. If the Deskset is set with static IP addresses, the address does not change.

Synapse User’s Guide Symptom Probable Cause Corrective Action You hear static, sudden silences, gaps in speech, or garbled speech. You may be experiencing network problems. General Troubleshooting Your LAN administrator should ensure the following minimum guidelines are met: z A switched network topology is recommended (using standard 10/100 Ethernet switches that carry traffic at a nominal rate of 100 Mbit/s). z The office network infrastructure should use Cat5 wiring.
Synapse User’s Guide Symptom Probable Cause Corrective Action You hear echoes, distorted speech, or static. At least one of the PSTN lines has DSL, which is not properly filtered. Make sure you have a DSL filter plugged in between each DSL line and the telephone wall jack. You may need a higher quality DSL filter than you are using. You can also try plugging in multiple DSL filters in sequence to decrease DSL interference.

This is normal and does not indicate a problem. If this Deskset is the first device on the network, Synchronizing...
Synapse User’s Guide Symptom Probable Cause Corrective Action Unable to make outside calls. An outside phone number cannot be accessed through the Gateway. Ensure that you enter a 9 before the telephone number to indicate this is an outside call. For example, 9-1-555-0123. If you see All Phone Lines Busy on the Deskset screen, try again later because all outside lines may be in use. Ensure that a Gateway is connected to the network and that it resides on the same subnet as the Deskset.
Synapse User’s Guide Symptom Probable Cause Corrective Action Deskset is not active immediately after a power interruption. The system needs time to restore service. Allow at least one minute for the system to boot up again after a power failure. My PC, which is connected to the LAN through the Deskset, briefly loses its network connection. For PCs connected to the LAN through Desksets, disruption to the Deskset operation affects the PC.
Synapse User’s Guide Symptom Probable Cause Corrective Action Deskset does not automatically forward a call to another extension. The Call Forward All settings are incorrect. Check that Call Forward All is on ( should appear in the top right corner of the screen while in Idle mode). Ensure that a valid extension number has been entered as a destination extension.
