Binary data | Select this option if your telephone system sends call records in a non-textual format. |
Timestamp data | TIM Enterprise can timestamp call records from your telephone system as they are received, if they do not already include dates and times. |
Delay processing by | Enable this option and enter a time delay, in milliseconds, if call records are sent from your telephone system over a slow connection. This helps to prevent data loss when call records are processed before they are fully received. |

Inactivity

Enable inactivity timer
Select this option to enable inactivity monitoring for the site you are configuring. Enter the amount of time, in minutes, that must pass with no call activity, before an e-mail is sent. Next, enter the e-mail address that will receive inactivity alerts for this site.
Reset connection on inactivity
TIM Enterprise can reset the network connection to your telephone system when an inactivity alert is sent, in order to cause the telephone system to restart its connection.
Exclude days and hours from inactivity monitoring
Tick the box alongside the days and hours when it is legitimate that no call activity takes place, such as at night or at weekends, so as not to receive unnecessary e-mail notifications for those periods.

In some cases, resetting the connection can force the phone system to reconnect. If you want TIM Enterprise to reset the connection when inactivity is detected, tick the box alongside that option.</p> <img class="screenshot border" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_enterprise/avaya_ip_office_inactivity.png" alt="PBX Inactivity" /> <h4>Exclusions</h4> <p>Inactivity might not always be as a result of a fault. Your organisation's normal work patterns might mean that the phone system is naturally inactive between certain hours or on certain days (e.g. at weekends). In this case, it is prudent to exclude those periods when inactivity may naturally occur, so that an alarm isn't sent unnecessarily during those times. Tick the boxes alongside the days and hours that you expect your phone system to naturally be inactive.</p> <h2>Options</h2> <p>This option when enabled restricts users/groups within the site so if anyone takes out a user from the PBX level and places it outside in a group (which they shouldn't), it will create the extension again and place it back into the "Discovered Users" folder. This option by default will be off and will only be used by us if we think it's necessary for the client in question.</p> <p>The example below shows the options for an Avaya IP Office.</p> <img class="screenshot border" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_enterprise/avaya_ip_office_options.png" alt="PBX properties" /> |
