Automatic mode switching using the time scheduler
Use the configuration software to activate the TalkSwitch time scheduler
feature. You can configure TalkSwitch to switch between modes
automatically (see 2.4.1 Modes on page 81).
If you switch modes manually, TalkSwitch switches to the proper mode
during the next scheduled mode change.
3.11 OUT OF THE OFFICE — MAKING CALLS WITH
CALL BACK AND CALL BRIDGE
Working together, call back and call bridge act as your personal
long-distance operator. Whether you are across town or around the world,
these two features allow you to place calls from your office incoming
telephone line(s).
You can make a call to TalkSwitch, access an incoming telephone line
connected to TalkSwitch and enter the number you want to dial. This is
especially useful when you are out of the office with your cell phone and
need to make a long-distance call. You can avoid the long-distance cell rates
by making a local call to TalkSwitch and access your office savings plan
through call bridge.
Ensure that the TalkSwitch configuration software tool is closed at the
time of the scheduled mode switch. The mode cannot change if the
configuration software is open.
