<h2>Options</h2>
<img class="screenshot border" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_plus/sites_8.png" alt="Sites properties" />
<p>The site options allows you to keep a local backup of data received,
timestamp incoming call records and delay processing of call records.
These options are explained in more detail below.</p>
<h4>Save a backup of any data recieved from this PBX</h4>
<p>By default we save a backup of data received from the PBX. This will
allow the data to be quickly reprocessed in the event of a fault. e.g.
if your database became corrupt and we had to restore the data, these
files would be used.</p>
<p>To save a backup of data, simply type the name of the file where you would like the backup stored.</p>
<p>By default the following is provided <span class="keyword">{app}\backup\backup-{year}-{month}-{day}.{uiv}</span></p>
<p>The '{..}' represent the system variables which are explained in more detail in the table below:</p>
<table class="confluenceTable">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th class="confluenceTh" width=128>Item</th>
<th class="confluenceTh">Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><span class="keyword">app</span></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">This variable is the installation path for where TIM Plus is installed.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><span class="keyword">year</span></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">This will enter the year the data was captured so that it is easily recognisable later. It can be used to create sub-folders which contain this information or filenames.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><span class="keyword">month</span></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">This will enter the month the data was captured so that it is easily recognisable later. It can be used to create sub-folders which contain this information or filenames.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><span class="keyword">day</span></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">This will enter the day the data was captured so that it is easily recognisable later. It can be used to create sub-folders which contain this information or filenames.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><span class="keyword">uiv</span></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">The UIV represents the unique ID associated to each site.</td>
</tr>

<h4>Timestamp received data</h4>
<p>Some PBX'sPBXs do not give out the date and time with each call records.
Although this is quite rare, this option allows you to timestamp all
data received.</p>
<h4>Binary data</h4>
<p>This is only ever used for PBX's/switches that send the data as
binary. e.g. ISDX. When th ebinary data option is ticked, we don't add
a newline after each data batch we receive. This prevents data
corruption.</p>
<h4>Delay processing of received data by { }ms</h4>
<p>This is used when the switch/network/PC has a really low connection
and TIM Plus needs to wait 'X' milliseconds before it attempts to
process the data. This is to ensure that all data is received before
processing.</p> |
