1.
How
many VN100 can be installed on one phone number line?
For optimum
performance
12.
2.
What
is the maximum distance for the VN100 network for optimum efficiency?
About
1000 ft. (measured by phone wiring length) which is more than enough for an
average home or small business
3.
When
dialing #99 for Ring-All function, why is there only one ring on
the extensions.
This
is to prevent triggering an answering machine when someone is not at their
extension. The
blinking red LED on the VN100 lets you know someone is dialing Ring-All. If you
wish to
have the continuous ringing, you can set the VN100 P/S switch to P position.
4.
I
have the TriVOX in my home and I want to conference a person at another
extension in my home after making a call out. What should I dial?
Dial ( # )
( * ) and the 2 - digit extension Number ( NN ).
5.
Can
I get to another extension when one does not answer?
Yes, you can
dial ( # NN) to get to another extension.
6.
I
have a fax machine. How can I network it?
If
it is a fax and answering machine combination, it can be plugged into the
same line as the voice network, without a VN100. Then it can be used as an
auto-attendant and fax machine. If it is a regular fax machine, a VN100
is needed just like another phone. Whoever wants to fax to you can dial
your number first and wait for the greeting. Then dial the extension number
for the fax machine to respond and receive the fax.
7.
I
am on an intercom or conference call with others in my home and someone
calls in from outside. What should I do?
You will hear
the beep and you need to hang up in order to receive the incoming call
or the incoming call will leave the voice message in your auto-attendant
answering machine.
8.
I
dialed a call on intercom to another extension in my home. I changed my
mind and redialed an alternate extension. What happens to the initial extension's
ringing cycle now?
The ringing
station will stop ringing in several ways:
A. After one ringing cycle, TriVOX's built-in Caller Abandon detector
will stop the ringing, if such an event is detected. Due to varying telephone
line conditions, this may not work in some cases.
B. The ring cycle can also be stopped by dialing a ( # ) from any
phone that is on the same telephone line. Note that this signal is automatically
generated as part of dialing another station's number.
C. The TriVOX VN100 module has a build-in timer that rings 30 seconds then
stops, if no one
answers.
9.
My two phone numbers are in separate phone jacks. How can I connect it with the
TriVOX VN100?
You can purchase
a 2-line splitter or a 2 outlet modular adapter from a telephone accessory
retailer.
10.
My
wall jack is behind the closet and hard to get to, how can I connect my TriVOX
VN100 to the wall jack?
You can purchase
the In-Line coupler from any local phone accessory store.
11. I would
like to connect my computer modem and phone with my one line number. How
can I do it?
Plug the Avinta
TriNET HN100, USB100 or any other Home Network device's LINE cord to the
wall outlet. Then plug the TriVOX VN100’s LINE cord to the PHONE jack on
the HN100 device. Plug a telephone into the PHONE+DATA jack on the VN100.
Leave the VN100’s DATA jack unused. (See user’s manual for diagram)
12.
Can TriNET HN100 and TriVOX VN100 use one phone number line?
Yes. Multiple
phone and computers can communicate with each other on one phone number
within the premise simultaneously.
However, an outgoing or incoming call still has a limit due to only one phone number
line. You can either be on phone talking to the outside caller, or connected to
the Internet with a dial-up connection, but not simultaneously. If you are
using DSL for your Internet connection, then you can have incoming and outgoing
voice calls simultaneously. With DSL the TriVOX VN100 network functions can be
used with outside voice calls while computers are using the Internet.
