Touch-Tones are used in every aspect of business today!   It's time to have a DTMF Decoder!

If you can't test DTMF to see if it's being sent and received correctly, how can you efficiently troubleshoot your customer's equipment? This is an investment that will pay for itself by saving you just a few hours of chasing your tail!  Now you can "see" Touch Tones!

One great application is getting the Speed Dial #'s out before swapping out equipment. The customer usually doesn't have a list of all those Speed Dial numbers, so they're thrilled when you give it to them!

Don't guess!  Use our Decoders for diagnosing problems with:

• Voice Mail
• ANI
• IVR
• DTMF DID
• Speed Dial
• Checking Dialers
• Decoding ABCD digits (AUTOVON, PBX In-Band Signalling, and Alarm Systems)
• Simple SMDR (on the Tone Master TM16 Plus model with serial port)

You're wasting your time trying to fix this stuff without an inexpensive Digit Decoders...in many cases problems can't be fixed without one!

CALLER ID LINK: Windows TSR Type Program for SCREEN POPS

Plug your Whozz Calling (Full Feature only, but not with Memory/Modem) into a serial port on your PC, and it will record all activity, including outgoing if you have a Full Feature unit, into a flat file on your hard disk. It starts automatically with windows. Everything is time and date stamped. For incoming calls, the program leaves the last Caller ID number received in a separate file for each line (like whooz01.dat, whooz02,dat, etc.).

If you want to bring Caller ID into a custom written program, you simply have the program open the small flat file for the appropriate line number, when you want to do a screen pop for that line.

It's usually easier to read and parse the information from a file, than to read the serial port (which is what Caller ID LINK does for you). You might even be able to read the flat file from a regular database program (like Access).

Since you never know which line you need to answer (Murphy's Law says that more than one line is going to ring at the same time), your program needs a way for you to tell it which line you're going to answer, so it will pop the correct information.

If you have 12 or fewer lines, the F Keys (above the numbers on a keyboard) are the easiest to use (if your program doesn't already use them). You may also be able to use a two key combination, like SHIFT and the F Key.

This works best on a Square Key System (where all of the lines are the same line number on every phone). That way, someone can hit the F Key even before they answer the line, to see who's calling. On a PBX, you could hit the F Key after the line is answered, if the line number is shown on the phone's display.

Requires Windows 95 and up, a PC with a minimum 486-66 with 32 meg of RAM, a serial port, hard drive with 10 meg free, and a Network Interface Card (NIC) so other computers on the network can access the Caller ID data.

This PC becomes the Caller ID Server.

You can turn the speech on or off on any PC, but it even talks on a PC anywhere on the Internet!

Caller ID Watch Plus will make every incoming call easier:

• See who's on each line before you answer it...
                     Your phone will need a button for each line, or a way to select which line you're answering
  
• See who's on other lines, that you're not talking on
  
• See which lines are busy, and which are idle (requires Full Feature Caller ID Box)
                     Know whan all lines are busy, or when you need to add lines
  
• See which lines are busy with incoming calls, and which lines are busy with outgoing calls
                     (requires Full Feature Caller ID Box)
  
• If you have a PBX (not a Key System with a button for each line), it lets you see the status of all of the lines on the system (busy or idle) just like you had a Key System  (requires Full Feature Callr ID Box)
  
• Look at the Call Log to see if you missed calls  (requires Full Feature Caller ID Box)
  
• Look at the Call Log to see how many times the line rang, if it was answered, and the duration of the inbound or outbound call  (requires Full Feature Caller ID Box)

Caller ID Watch PLUS Incoming, Outgoing, and Logging Features:

Caller ID Watch PLUS includes an Inactivity Warning which plays a sound to let you know if no Caller ID has been received in X minutes:

Requires Windows 98 or up, minimum Pentium 100 with 256meg of RAM, a real serial port (not a USB/serial converter), hard drive with 200 meg free, a Super VGA (800x600 minimum) Monitor, and a NIC (Network Interface Card) if you plan to use it over a network or over the Internet.

The voice features (spoken Caller ID) require a sound card and speakers.

Comes with a Dongle that connects to the serial port on the PC that's collecting the data from the Caller ID Box. No limit on the number of client PCs.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. If the information you need from Caller ID Watch Plus is important to you, you should probably run it on a dedicated PC. If other software on the PC crashes Windows, you'll lose the information until the computer is reset. Even old versions of Windows (like 95) do an incredibly good job if there is only one program running on the PC. Be sure to remove everything from the Startup Group, and stop the Virus Scanning software on that cheap dedicated PC.

2. Caller ID Watch Plus Network uses UDP Packets which are not absolutely guaranteed to get to the client PC. In reality, we haven't seen dropped packets on the network, but you shouldn't use the network for life safety applications. Even if a packet gets dropped over the network, the main PC collecting the Caller ID information will have all of the information in its log. To get the UDP packets outside of your network, you'll need to choose a port for them to be sent on, and that port will have to be opened in the firewalls.

3. If you plan to view Caller ID information over the Internet from a PC that has a dynamic IP address (that changes often like residential cable, DSL or a cellular phone data connection), you'll have to click on the Network Setup Wizard each time the IP address changes to send the new IP address to the main PC running Caller ID Watch Plus Network. That takes about 10 seconds.

DTMF FLASH GENERATOR

  DTMF Flash Generator

This amazing line powered device will flash (or hang-up) the line for up to a second in response to a pre-programmed code. It's always listening on the line.

Using the DTMF Flash Generator to provide a CPC:

Many phone systems allow in-band signalling to indicate to the device connected to an analog station port that the trunk has received a CPC signal from the phone company, and the outside party has hung-up. In-band signalling can be a DTMF digit (including A, B, C and D fourth column tones), dial tone, busy signal or reorder tone. These tones are usually used to signal a voice mail system that the outside party has hung-up.

It's usually necessary to program the phone system's analog station port as a voice mail port in order to use in-band signalling (this is how integration was done in the past). If the system supports sending a DTMF digit when it receives a CPC signal on a trunk, this is the most dependable way of proving an open-loop disconnect to the device on the analog station port. Any other methods have to recognize a tone or silence, which can lead to cut-offs when you don't want them.

Keep in mind that even if the phone system does support in-band signalling when it receives a CPC on a trunk, it may not send the DTMF digit when on a station to station call. That means that a voicemail will hang-up on trunk calls, but not on messages left from a station

SUPER TINY DIALER™

The World's Best Autodialer / Hotdialer!

Small enough to fit INSIDE many phones!

The Super Tiny Dialer™ is a single line, line powered dialer (no external power or batteries required). Simply connect it in-series with one or many phones (or a phone system), dial a code you program (like ##), and it dials the pre-programmed phone number.

WARNING:

If used in a Life Safety application like a 911 phone, Elevator Phone or Pool Phone, be sure the customer agrees in writing to check the operation on a regular basis (or don't sell it to them). Something may go wrong with the line, the pair, the Priority Line Grabber™, the Super Tiny Dialer™, or the phone. An emergency isn't the time to find out there's a problem! Be sure to call the Police or Fire non-emergency number to let them know you're going to be testing, before the test.

Use our PC Grabber Deluxe Model 3 for programming multiple dialers with the same or similar numbers, automatically. Just write a simple script, then play it into the dialer (on-site or remotely).

SUPER TINY DIA

Mini HotDialer™

The Mini HotDialer™... for Phones that Only Make OUTGOING Calls
 

This is a great  HotDialer for No-Dial, Guest Phones, Taxi Phones, Money Transfer Phones and any phone that doesn't receive incoming calls.

Fit in almost any phone, OR  plug it into the wall jack and plug the phone into it, OR  put it in the phone room (it doesn't have to be inside the phone):

The Mini HotDialer™ is small enough that we can fit it inside any of our phones, including our No-Dial Trimline phone (except the Compact No-Dial).

It's only made for phones that make outgoing calls.

You can use it on any phone and answer an incoming call, but it might dial the pre-programmed number in your ear when you answer. Not terrible, but annoying.
 

The Mini HotDialer™ is less expensive than our Super Tiny Dialer™ (above) because we didn't include the circuitry to prevent it from dialing the programmed HotDial number when the phone is answered. If you aren't going to receive incoming calls on the phone with the HotDialer, this is an economical Dialer that works great!  If you are going to receive calls, use our slightly more expensive Super Tiny Dialer™.

The MiniHot Dialer™ is a single line, line powered dialer (no external power or batteries required). Simply connect it in-series with one or many phones (or a phone system), program the number you want it to dial automatically when a handset is lifted, and it will HotDial that number automatically as soon as the handset is lifted. Besides the phone number to dial you can program in a delay or a trunk access code like a "9 pause" before the number is dialed.

Works great with our No-Dial phones for calling taxis, 911, customer service etc. It's small enough that we can fit it inside any of our phones, including our No-Dial Trimline phone.
