Setup screen - overview

To access the Setup screen, click on the Tools button from the top-left menu bar, as shown below:

A new window will open, displaying the following configuration options:

Tab	Description
PBX	Contains all of the parameters necessary for the running of the system with your PBX.
LCR	Setup your least-cost routing digits here, and point them to specific tariffs.
Network	Setup the IP addresses of remote data clients and choose the unique ways these are handled.
Tariffs	Allows you to localise the tariffs in order to ensure they cost correctly.
Sites	We'd normally recommend upgrading to TIM Plus if logging multiple sites as it will be more cost effective and provide a lot more features.
Locations	Assign custom names to specific or ranges of dialled numbers.
Account codes	Add or remove account codes and their associated names.
System	Set general system parameters here, e.g. VAT, currency, Live stats etc.
Routing	Assign multiple tariffs to different extension and trunk numbers.
Database	This is purely for diagnostics and rarely used.

The main configuration file

TIM Professional stores all its configuration settings into a file, main.cfg, found within the main installation folder ( \tim\config\main.cfg ). It consists, as with the other configuration files, of a line-by-line list of settings. Changing some of these settings only takes effect after the system is restarted.

For a full list of configuration file options, please visit the Configuration File Options section.
