• Call Pickup Code – Code used for direct call pickup in a PABX.
• Reconnect Code – Digits to reconnecting a failed transfer with CyDesk Mobile.

• Set All Passwords to extension number – Sets all passwords to the extension numbernumbers.

In-Band

Image RemovedImage Added

In-Band Signaling

CyCC may receive digits from certain PABX systems to identify where the call is forwarded from. The digits are then used to identify which queue the call is for, by matching them against the Queue In-Band Identifier value.

• First Digit Wait Time – Time  a time before the first digit.
• Inter-Digit Wait Time – Time –  time between digits.
• Total DTMF Wait Time – Total time for the number dialed.
• DTMF Disconnect Code - If CyAnnounce receives the code entered here during the sequence of the call, it will take that to mean that the PABX has disconnected the call.

Identifiers

Identifier – Defines how the digits from the PABX specify which queue the call is for. In the above example, any 3 digit number starting with a 7 can be used as an identifier.

Announcement Ports

Image RemovedImage Added

This lists the Dialogic ports assignments.

A new announcement port can be added by clicking on the ‘Add’ button in this list, and an existing one can be deleted by clicking on the ‘red bin’ icon.

Image RemovedImage Added

• Dialogic Port – The port number on the Dialogic board / HMP.
• PABX – The PABX integration profile of the device connected to the Dialogic port.
• Device – Thedevice  The device number connected to the Dialogic port.
• Direction – Specifies whether this port is for incoming calls, outgoing calls, or either.
• Number of sequential ports to add – When creating a new port, this feature helps to create additional x ports assuming the device connected to the subsequent ports is sequential. In this above example, it will assume that port 4 is connected to 332; port 5 is connected to 333, etc.

  Note that this setting is very critical and must be configured correctly.

Announcement Files

The announcement files need to be stored on the server where the Dialogic board / HMP and CyAnnounce service is are installed. In some circumstances, this is not necessarily the same server as where the rest of the CyTrack software is installed.

The structure inside this folder must follow the following rules:

Image RemovedImage Added

The Queue sub-folder must be named Qxxxx where xxxx XXXX is the ID of the queue, as shown in CyDesk Manager – Queues list.

...

If ‘Queue Position’ is required, you can have custom greetings for each queue position up to 6. They will need to be called POS0.WAV, POS1.WAV up to POS6.WAV. If there are more than 6 calls holding in front of the current call, POS6 will be used. It is recommended that POS6, therefore, does not specifically say ‘There are 6 calls ahead of you’. Without these, the default position announcements will be used.

It is very important to record the Announcement files with the correct audio format. The audio files must have the following format to be compatible with telephony devices. Any other format will be played by the system; however, no audio will be heard at the telephony end i.e. by the caller.

PCM WAV, 11 KHz, 8 bit, Mono

CyDesk Manager Queue Announcement tab can be used to manage the process of copying various audio files into respective queues. Before copying the new file, this ensures the audio format is correct and creates a backup of any previous greeting files.
