ESTOS CallControlGateway 4.0.0.21648
36
set up here. Either the line is unavailable until the next reset, or ESTOS
CallControlGateway will try to access the line periodically. The interval
between attempts to access the line should not be too short, because this can
cause performance loss.
Delay after lineOpen
A time span may be entered here so that the ESTOS CallControlGateway waits
after each lineOpen. This is a special setting for the DeTeWe OpenCom 1000.
With this PBX it is possible that lines cannot be opened. If lineOpen is used too
quickly for a large number of extensions. Recommended setting for this PBX:
500 milliseconds.

6.8 Lines
A line usually corresponds to a phone. All lines are displayed in the list which
are available on the computer. The lines are available through TAPI driver
which should be already installed on the system. If you add a new driver under
the System Control panel - add phone and modem to options, the lines are
accordingly added here. With some TAPI drivers a restart of the ESTOS
CallControlGateway is necessary.
Line properties
You can change some line properties directly in the list; otherwise there is a
dialog which can be opened via properties after selecting and marking a line. A
line has the following properties:
 Use line
Line is opened by CallControlGateway. The line can then be used and be added to users.
 Outside line
This line is treated during certain processes in the CallControlGateway especially if it
concerns an outside line.
 Line addresses
If the TAPI line has several addresses, you can define whether incoming calls are reported
to all addresses or only to one special address here.
 Internal phone number
This is the phone number with which the phone can be contacted internally. The number is
normally determined automatically (either from the address or from the line name). A
phone number may only occur once. This phone number is the unique key with which the
phones are assigned to users and computers. If you have dual phone numbers such as, for
example, with parallel connection of terminal devices, you should use small letters to
differentiate the phone numbers. If you have two lines with the phone number 111, you
should give one line the number 111 and the other the number 111b.
 Location
Defines the Location of the line, if the location wasn't configured via the line group. The
location defines, for example, the number formats and the dialing rules.
Line group properties
The lines are gathered in groups. The group properties apply for all the group's
lines. In order to display the group's properties, mark the group and click
properties. A group has the following properties:
 Use all the group's lines
If this option is active all the group's lines are switched on.
 Automatically use line
If this option is activated, the lines are automatically opened as soon as they are required.
