Introduction

Welcome! This guide will assist you with the administration and configuration of the Activ! Voice Server (also referred to as the Voice Print Server) and the Activ! Voice Client.

Familiarity with using Windows Operating Systems and Windows Networks is a prerequisite for the proper operation and use of the Activ! Voice Server.

Activ! Voice Server Operational Overview

The Voice Print system passively monitors and does not create any type of frequency or tone and is always in a state of recording. For example, any channel activity that has ring voltage or a frequency response between 330 – 3400 Hz (+/ - 3dB), and exceeds a minimum call length threshold, is defined as a “Call”. The SQL Database then assigns a Data

File name with an extension of .TMP and writes it to the Primary Buffer.

   

Note: The Primary Buffer Data Files have an extension of .TMP. It is critical that the Administrator not delete any *.TMP Data Files!

By default, every thirty minutes the system will look to the Primary Buffer for Data Files (Calls) that have been in the Buffer for more than thirty minutes. Any Call that meets this criterion is marked, written to Archive Media, and a copy is sent to Long Term Storage (LTS). The file will remain in the LTS buffer until it meets the system defined long-term storage value. The data file (call) will be deleted from the LTS buffer upon matching a value for storage length.

System and File Layout

It is the responsibility of the Voice Print Administrator to backup Activ! Voice Data Files and Database files. However, there are some important guidelines that must be adhered too prior to performing such functions. The following explains the default system and file layout and the precautions regarding such:

C: Drive Contains the Operating System and Voice Print Operating Files

D: Drive Contains the Voice Print Database (DB\BACKUP\VPDATA.GDB)

CRITICAL! DO NOT BACKUP WITH NETWORK! E: Drive Contains the Primary Storage Buffer

CRITICAL! DO NOT DELETE *. TMP files! F: Drive Contains the Long-Term Storage Buffer

CRITICAL! DO NOT DELETE *. LTS files! G: Drive Removable Drive / Archive Device (i.e., DVD-RAM)

H: Drive Removable Drive / Archive Device if installed (i.e., DVD-RAM) 



Note: A mirrored drive will show LOCKED and full at all times, this is correct.

(5)

5 

 

Important! DO NOT point any network backup device or software at the file VPDATA.GDB; this is an active database file. Instead point the software towards the backup database file VPDATA.GBK. By default, database files are retained on the D: partition (i.e., D:\DB).

Anti Virus and Third Party Software Conflicts

The two drives in the basic configuration are RAID 1 mirrored and are partitioned into C, D, E and F partitioned drives. Voice Print specific files are located on the D, E and F drives to eliminate impact from anti-virus software and conflicts with other third party software.

You can scan all files on the C: drive.

DO NOT scan ANY files on the following drives:

• DO NOT scan ANY files on the D: drive • DO NOT scan ANY files on the E drive • DO NOT scan ANY files on the F drive

• If you have a single DVD drive DO NOT scan ANY files on the G: drive • If you have Dual DVD drives DO NOT scan ANY files on the G: or H: drives

In order to properly scan D, E, F, G and H drives you would have to shutdown the Voice Print server to minimize the impact to recorded files.

Ports Used

Server Side • TCP 3050 (Interbase/Firebird Server) Client Side • TCP 1001 (Status Lights) • TCP 1239 (NMSD) • TCP 1235 (Unassigned)

This can vary on some systems depending on other ports used.

(6)

Starting the Activ! Voice Server Program

By default, the Activ! Voice Server Program should always be running. If for any reason it is not, then the System Administrator should locate the Start Voice Print icon located on the Desktop to start the program. Logging-In to the Voice Print Server Program

1. Left Click on the Login Button.

2. Enter your Agent ID as supplied by your System Administrator in the Agent ID field in the Voice Print Login Dialog box.

If this is your first time logging in, the Agent ID is “1”

3. Enter your password as supplied by your System Administrator in the Password field. If this is your first time logging in, the password is “vpadmin” (passwords are case sensitive). 4. Left Click on the OK box.

5. If you are unable to login to Voice Print properly, please call either your System Administrator or Voice Print Technical Support at 805-389-5201 for assistance.

Enabling Automatic Logon

The Activ! Voice Server allows you to automate the logon process by storing your password and other pertinent information in the Registry database.

 

Important! This procedure contains information about modifying the registry. Before you modify the

registry, make sure to back it up and make sure that you understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For information about how to back up, restore, and edit the registry, visit http://support.microsoft.com/ and search for the appropriate Microsoft Knowledge Base Article for your operating system.

Select Start > Run > and in the Run field type in regedt32.

(7)

7 Locate the following Registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

1. Search for or create a New STRING and name it AutoAdminLogon. Value Data should be “1”

2. Search for or create a New STRING and name it DefaultUserName.

Value Data will be an Administrator account in User Manager such as “Administrator” or “vpadmin”. 3. Create a New STRING and name it DefaultPassword. The Value Data should be the corresponding

password to the user name specified above such as “12345” or “vpadmin”. 

 

Note: If no DefaultPassword string is specified, Windows automatically changes the value of the

AutoAdminLogon key from 1 (true) to 0 (false), thus disabling the AutoAdminLogon feature.

4. Close the Registry Editor and reboot PC, it should automatically login.

You can bypass the Automatic Logon feature by holding down the SHIFT key as Windows is starting. If you are already logged on, press CTRL+ALT+DEL, choose the Logoff button, choose the OK button, and then immediately hold down the SHIFT key until the Welcome dialog box appears.

The problem of bypassing the automatic logon feature is that the original DefaultUserName is no longer kept for subsequent logons, because the name of the last user to logon is retained in the Username box of the

Welcome dialog box and the Registry. To enable the AutoAdminLogon once again, enter the original DefaultUserName and password in the Welcome dialog box.

It is also important to note that if the DONTDISPLAYLASTUSERNAME value is set to 1, AutoAdminLogon will not function.

Disabling “Shutdown Event Tracking” for Windows 2003 Server Edition

By default, Windows 2003 Server Edition uses “Shutdown Event Tracking” to add more detail to shutdown events. However, this feature will interfere with the AutoAdminLogon feature and needs to be disabled. Reason being is that Shutdown Event Tracking requires user intervention to continue the startup process thereby defeating the purpose of self system startup.

To disable “Shutdown Event Tracking” please reference “Configuring Shutdown Event Tracker for Microsoft

Windows Server 2003” on the Microsoft.com Website http://www.microsoft.com.

Logging-Out of the Activ! Voice Server Program

Because of the potential for unauthorized access to sensitive or confidential recordings, Voice Print

International strongly recommends that you properly logout of the system after each use or when you will be out of sight of the server. If you don’t logout, the system will automatically log you out after so many minutes of inactivity. The default Auto Logout setting is set to 30 minutes.

(8)

8

To logout of the Activ! Voice Server program, press the Logout button.

  

Caution: DO NOT PRESS THE EXIT BUTTON! THIS WILL TERMINATE THE LOGGING FUNCTIONS!

Exiting (Stopping) Activ! Voice

Under normal circumstances, Voice Print should always be running. Upon occasion it may be necessary to stop or start Voice Print manually. Exiting Voice Print causes all logging functions to terminate. Recording WILL NOT resume until Voice Print is re-started. Any communications that are being recorded when you stop Voice Print will be terminated and saved in an orderly fashion before application shutdown completes. Please pay close attention to error messages displayed on any Event Center popup window. For any errors that don’t resolve themselves please contact Voice Print Technical Support at (805) 389-5201.

To exit Activ! Voice and stop recording of all calls: 1. Login to Activ! Voice as an Administrator.

2. Click on the Exit button.

3. Click Yes on the “Are You Sure” message box.

4. Observe as the Voice Print Shutdown status window progresses downward and closes.

To restart Activ! Voice, select the Start Voice Print icon located on the desktop.

(9)

9

Activ! Voice System Status Tab

The System Status Tab will give you a general overview of the major operating functions of the Voice Print System. This tab contains four distinct areas each related to a specific function.

A colored “light” located next to each Sub-System, indicates its status. Except for individual Channel Status, Voice Print uses three main colors to indicate sub-system status:

Green – Working as designed. No Problems.

Yellow – Busy performing critical tasks or may need attention in the near future. Red – Critical Failure! Sub-system needs immediate attention!

(10)

10

System Status Tab - Channels Section

This area of the System Status tab displays the functional status of the Channel Manager and each individual

Channel. The Channel Manager (or recording trigger) differs depending on system type (i.e., VOX or

D-Chan-nel). Unless the Voice Print system has just started, or is in the process of shutting down, then the Channel

Manager status indicator should always be green.

There are 96 blocks each representing a single channel within this area. The first row represents channels 1 through 48. The second row represents channels 49 through 96.

  

Note: The current limit of channels for Voice Print’s largest Server (i.e., MAXI) is currently set

to 96.

By pointing to a channel without clicking, the channel name and status will appear briefly in a pop up display. The blocks change color to indicate the current functional state of its associated channel.

Green – Indicates that recording is in progress. Yellow – Yellow indicates that the channel is idle.

Red – Red indicates that there is an error on the channel.

Light – Light Blue indicates that the channel is in use for playback.

Olive – Olive Drab indicates that the channel has not received audio within the defined time limit for that channel and may or may not indicate an error condition or wiring problem.

Additional channel information for each channel and its status is viewable in a pop-up status window by placing the mouse over each Channel Status Light.

The Channel description, current activity and individual call count is displayed in the Status Bar located at the bottom of the Voice Print application window.

(11)

11

Zones

The Channels Status section contains four Zones of 24 channels each. Zone 1 is the first 24 channels; Zone

2 is the second 24 channels and so on.

The status of each zone is represented by a Status Light (depicting the activity of the Zone in general) and two numbers separated by a slash ‘XX/ZZ’. Where XX is the number of recordings generated by all of the Chan-nels in the particular zone during the current hour and ZZ is the total number of recordings generated by all of the Channels in the zone since midnight of the current day up to the current hour.

At the beginning of every hour the system adds the total calls for the hour (XX) to the current day total (ZZ) for each Zone. The system then resets the current hour total to 0. The process repeats every hour on the hour.

System Status Tab - Archive / Database Manager Section

System Status Tab - Archive Manager

Archive Session

By default, Voice Print performs an Archive Session every 30 minutes. The archive session copies all recordings created during the previous 30 minutes from the Primary Buffer to Archive Media (DVD) and to

Long Term Storage (LTS) and the database is updated to reflect the current location of each call.

LTS is the Secondary Buffer, and by default is the remaining partition of the hard-drive. However, the device

selected for the Secondary Buffer can be a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device residing on the net work.

The Status Indicator shows how much space is presently available for TMP files prior to the next Archive Session. See Section Voice Print Setup Tab > Archive Manager Tab for more detailed configuration informa-tion.

(12)

12

Sweep Session

By default, Voice Print performs a Sweep Session during every fourth archive session. The sweep session reviews the list of archived call records and removes calls from the Secondary Buffer that are older than the

LTS hour setting. The default setting for LTS Buffer Hours is 1440 hours or approximately 60 days worth of

calls (i.e., 1440 hrs.÷ 24hrs = 60 days).

ARCH01

ARCH01 stands for Archive Device number 1. The indicator gives status of the first archive device. The

blue sliding indicator gives a graphical representation of how full the archive media is. Status indicates the current state of the drive and loaded media. Archive ID displays the currently loaded media ID number. Free indicates how much free space is available on the currently loaded media. The ARCH01 indicator block has three states:

Green – Indicates that media is loaded and has space available to archive recordings. Yellow – Indicates that media is loaded but is close to running out of space to archive

recordings.

Red – Indicates that either media is not loaded or that the loaded media is full and cannot store any more data.

ARCH02

ARCH02 indicates the status of the second archive device if it is present. Each of the indicators works

exactly as described in ARCH01. Systems configured with “Mirrored” archive devices will show the drive as LOCKED and FULL at all times

Changing DVD-RAM Media from the System Status Tab

All Users will have the ability to change out Archive Media from the Server. 1. Login to Activ! Voice.

2. On the System Status screen, right click on the ARCH01 or ARCH02 status indicator. The Eject

Media and Properties Pop-up will appear.

3. Left Click on the Eject Media selection to eject the DVD cartridge.

(13)

13 

  

Important! Only use this method for ejecting the media. DO NOT eject the media manually.

4. Either turn the DVD-RAM cartridge over to utilize side two or use formatted or recycled DVD-RAM media.

   

Note: Use double-sided 9.4 GB DVD-RAM (4.7GB/side) media in Type 1 (disc non-removable)

cartridges.

5. Close the DVD-RAM tray by pressing the drive button.

System Status Tab - Database Manager Section

The Database Manager controls the SQL (Structured Query Language) functions between the Voice Print application and the SQL Database engine. Unless the Voice Print system has just started, or is in the pro-cess of shutting down, then the Database Manager Status indicator should always be green.

Status Messages

Status Messages differ depending on the current process. Some of the different status messages are as

follows:

Idle Messages

Process Not Started... No media installed.

Process Idle... Archive Manager is between processes.

Paused by Media Player! The Voice Print Playback Mixer has paused the Archive Manager in order to retrieve a call.

Next Archive Session @ Time Archival of recordings will begin at the time specified.

Sweep Session @ Time Removal of recordings from the LTS Buffer will begin at the time specified.

(14)

14

Archive Messages

Last # Attempts Failed! If Voice Print is unable to archive the calls as scheduled, for

Check Log! whatever reason, you will receive this error message. You should check the Event Center for more information about the reason for the failure.

Possible reasons for this condition:

• No archive media in the archive device(s). • Archive media is full.

• Archive device(s) failure. • Archive media failure.

System Status Tab - Buffer Manager Section

The Buffer Manager manages the Short-Term (Primary) and Long-Term (Secondary) storage buffers.

BUFF 01 is the Short-Term (Primary) storage area where recorded but un-archived calls reside.

As the buffer fills, the color status indicator will change from green to yellow and then eventually red. The next archive session (default every 30 minutes) will archive calls from the Primary Buffer to DVD Media and copy calls to the Secondary Buffer (LTS). As the Primary Buffer empties, the indicator will revert back to yellow and then eventually to a green status. If the indicator stays in the red then this indicates an overflow condition (i.e., Archive Media is full and needs to be changed).

BUFF 02 is the Long Term Storage (LTS) area that contains archived recordings for on-line instant retrieval and

playback. This is typically the remaining 90% of fixed disk space remaining on the hard drive (partition F). If space requirements are not enough for your environment, then map BUFF 02 to a NAS unit or a Network

Drive.

BUFF 02 will also progress from green to yellow and then eventually red as the buffer fills. When the color

indicator stays in the red this indicates that disk space is limited.

The Status Indicator shows how much space is presently available for TMP files prior to the next Archive Session. See Section Voice Print Setup Tab > Buffer Manager Tab for more detailed configuration information.

Client Activity Section

This area of the Status screen will list available and current Client connections. Connected Clients will show a green status light along with their Agent ID listed in the box. Yellow indicates no active connection. Only the first six Client connections are viewable at one time.

  

Note: The operating system is the basis for the quantity of concurrent license connections. For example;

WINNT and WIN2K Pro are limited to a maximum of 10 incoming concurrent licenses whereas WIN2K and WINNT Server are unlimited based on CAL’s (Client Access Licenses) purchased.

In the very bottom right hand corner you will see the total number of calls processed since the last Startup of Voice Print and the currently logged in Agent.

In the very bottom left hand corner you will notice various real-time messages and device path locations based on the placement of the mouse cursor on the Status Screen. The center section show the total calls for the day and the far right hand corner shows the Agent ID of the current user logged into the Server.

(18)

Activ! Voice Database Disconnect Feature

Version 2.8 allows for a database disconnect for a complete backup and restore procedure.

To do this, select the Disconnect Database selection from the Tools drop down menu on the Voice Print

Digital Call Logger Client. You will receive the following dialog window:

The dialog window allows you to select a default message to the attached Clients or add additional comments to warn them that the Database will be unavailable:

Choose the amount of time you anticipate the database to be offline for and then select the Disconnect button. All attached Clients will receive the warning message that the Voice Print Server will be discon-nected for X amount of time (i.e., minutes, hours, days). During this time the logger will still be record-ing/logging calls but Clients will not be able to connect to the Voice Print Server until the database is reconnected.

(19)

19 To reconnect the database, login as an Administrator and you it will automatically prompt you if you want to reconnect the database.

While the database is disconnected all call records “Transactions” are buffered locally. When the Database is reconnected, it will import 50 records per 5 minute database commitment intervals. 

  

Important! Be certain that ALL database maintenance is complete before reconnecting to the database.

The Tools drop down menu also has selections for Voice Print Tools and VRA (Variable Retention Archiving). These features are available in separate documentation. For more information on these features, please contact a Voice Print Technical Support Representative.

(20)

20

VPConfig Login Screen

To configure the Voice Print Server, left click the VPConfig icon shortcut located on the desktop. Select the

Login button and enter your Agent ID and Password. After login, the General Tab will display detailed information

regarding your system setup (i.e., Serial Number, Features included, etc.).

If you add features in the future, Voice Print will supply you with a new License Key. Select the Edit Key and enter the information accordingly:

VPConfig is comprised of 7 configuration tabs accessible from the Servers pane:

(21)

21 Located on the lower left portion of the interface are Apply and Cancel buttons. Any time you make changes to a Configuration Tab these buttons will become active. If you don’t use the buttons you will still be prompted to Apply Changes. Either way, you can’t continue to another tab until you Apply or Cancel any changes.

(22)

22

Channel Manager Tab

This tab is for configuring the various Channel Managers (recording triggers) supported by Voice Print and, based on your recording environment, specifies if Voice Print is recording on the trunk side or the station side. There are various Channel Managers available (i.e., VOX Extension Side Recording shown below). Each type of license will have its own respective screen layout under the Channel Manager tab. Separate documentation is available for each Channel Manager. Please request documentation for the specific Channel Manager licensed for your system.

Common to all Channel Managers are 7 general settings (as shown above).

Call Playback Phone Number/Extension

Used for single Call Playback when the phone icon is selected as the playback device from the Client Play-back Screen. This number can also be an extension.

(23)

23

Live Monitoring

This pull down menu lets the Administrator define the channel that’s used for the Live Monitoring function: • 0, Use “Call Playback” Phone Number

1, Use First Channel (Speakers) Default Setting • 2, Use DSP Speaker Jack

Perishable Pin Prompt

The Perishable Pin prompt allows a remote recipient to listen to a call or calls by dialing a designated phone number and punching in an assigned PIN number on the phone keypad. The default audio file used for the prompt is called ENTRPIN.PMT and is located in the C:\Clogger directory. The File Format only pertains to the compression used for the recorded PMT file.

To customize this message for your location, record a message in WAV file format (any compression level is acceptable) copy it to the C:\Clogger directory, and then type the full path to the file and the file name in the File window.

Auto Logout

Automatically logs off the current user if there is inactivity after the specified time (the default is 30 minutes) freeing up a license for someone else to use. This feature can be turned on or off by the Administrator.

Idle Alarm Rep

The Idle Alarm Rep checks every X amount of hours (from 0-96 hours) to see which channels are in the idle state and sends a message using any of the Event Center notification options.

(24)

24

VOX and VOX Emulation

For all channels recording in VOX mode, choose the minimum call length to determine when to start recording the channel. The default is 2 seconds. Setting this value can prevent small busts of “line noise” from becoming calls to Voice Print.

T1 Hardware

Select this checkbox for Trunk side recording environments. For station-side recording just leave unchecked.

(25)

25

Channel Manager > Channels Tab

This sub-tab is for configuring all the channels physically connected to the logger. Each Channel can be fine tuned to determine how it will be used (i.e., record or playback only) and advanced features can adjust the compression level and audio sensitivity on a per channel basis.

Modifying Channels

Select the desired channel to edit, and then select the Modify Channel Name button, highlight the existing name, and type the new label over it. In a fixed seating environment you should associate an Agents Logon ID with their Channel Number.

(26)

26

Channel Setup Options

After you have assigned a label (Channel Name) to all of your Channels, use the check boxes to select Channel Setup options.

; Use Channel

Select this to enable recording of the channel. For example, if you are using an 8-channel Voice Print system to record 6 Agents, you may disable channels 7 and 8 by un-checking the boxes. ; Disable Live Monitoring

Select this to restrict users the ability to Live Monitor this channel (flagged with a Yellow Warning icon on the Live Monitoring Tab). This setting overrides a Live Monitor setting in the Agents Tab.

; Use Alert Tone when Recording

Select this if you desire an alert tone when recording begins. This feature only works with Voice Cards that are able to provide “Beep Tone”.

; Always Record (VOX Emulation)

This option is available on a per channel basis for systems other than VOX that need to record or playback certain channels in VOX mode (i.e., Live Monitoring, Remote Playback).

Details

(27)

27 ƒ Extension (Fixed Seating environment only)

Enter the Agent’s Extension Number (5 digit numeric length). The Modify Channel Name button has the same functionality as this entry box so the entry may already be populated. ƒ Department ID

As desired, enter a department number (9 character alphanumeric limit). ƒ Desk Location (Fixed Seating environment only)

As desired, enter an alphanumeric description (20 character alphanumeric limit). 

  

Note: If the entry is an exact match from the Desk Location entry in the Details Section from the

Agents Tab, then Voice Print will append the Agents Agent ID to the call. This is only

relevant in a Fixed Seating Environment. ƒ Group ID

Assign a Group ID to correlate to a single Channel or to several channels. From the

Agents Tab, Group Access lets you select which Group ID’s an Agent will have access to,

or you can enter a single Group ID number in the Group ID entry box.

(28)

28

ƒ Class of Service (COS)

Allows you to tag and retain calls from 5 to 365 days in LTS for the selected Channel (the default equals 0 or none). A COS tagged Call is not written to archive media. When the retention level of a COS tagged Call is met it is deleted from LTS. When the LTS setting is less than the COS retention level setting, then the LTS setting will take precedence and delete the call from LTS first.

Advance Channel Configuration

Advanced Channel Configuration allows for further channel configuration from recording compression formats down to minute audio adjustments on a per channel basis.

Select the Advanced button to open the Advanced Channel Configuration Menu.

(29)

Channel Type

ƒ Record Only

This is Voice Print’s factory default setting for all channels. ƒ Playback Only

If your Voice Print Server includes this option, select this check box to use this channel for call playback over an analog phone line or analog PBX extension. VPI recommends using Channels 3 or 4 for this feature.











Note: Never wire an incoming extension to a Playback Only phone line. A channel selected for

Playback Only will not record calls.

ƒ Playback and Notify

Obsolete—This feature is now controlled by Event Center Alarm Notifications. ƒ Live Monitoring (LM)

If your Voice Print Server includes this option, select this check box to use the channel for Live Monitoring. This option will also allow LAN Clients to Live Monitor calls. VPI recommends using Channel 1 for Local Live Monitoring and Channel 2 for Remote Live Monitoring.

   

 Local LM: Channel 1 should not have any wiring connected and a Live Monitoring adapter

is required to Live Monitor through the Voice Print Server Sound Card. A Live Monitoring Channel will not record calls.

   

 Remote LM: Never wire an incoming extension to a Remote Live Monitoring channel. An

outgoing analog phone line or analog PBX extension is required for this feature. A Live

Monitoring Channel will not record calls. VPI recommends using Channel 2 for this feature. ƒ PIN Playback

If your Voice Print Server includes this option, select this check box to use the channel for Perish able PIN playback. VPI recommends using Channels 3 or 4 for this feature. Never wire an incoming extension to a PIN Playback channel. An outgoing analog phone line or analog PBX extension is required for this feature. A PIN Playback Channel will not record calls.

Recording Format

ƒ Microsoft 13.3 KHz GSM

This selection records calls in Microsoft Native 13.3 KHz GSM format. Recording at 13.3 KHz offers approximately 160 hours of recording storage per 1 GB of device storage. This is the default setting. ƒ Lucent 24 Kbps ADPCM

This selection records calls in Lucent 24 Kbps ADPCM format. Recording at 24 Kbps offers approxi mately 88 hours of recording storage per 1 GB of device storage.

ƒ Lucent 32 Kbps ADPCM

This selection records calls in Lucent 32 Kbps ADPCM format. Recording at 32 Kbps offers approxi mately 66 hours of recording storage per 1 GB of device storage.

Thresholds

ƒ Silence

The Silence Threshold setting is only for channels recording in VOX mode and it controls when to end a recording based on the length (in seconds) entered.

ƒ Inactivity

The inactivity setting is a timer that controls how long is permissible before a channel goes into an inactive state. When the channel reaches the inactivity limit then an error event is sent to the Event

Center and the Channel Activity tab will change the color status of the channel to a light brown color

indicating an “Idle/Alarm” state.

Audio Adjustments

ƒ Adjust Gain

Used to increase or decrease the Audio Volume. The setting range is from -6db to +6db. The default setting is 0 db.

ƒ Special 1

Do not change this setting unless instructed to do so by a VPI Support Technician! Used to

preclude “runaway calls” when recording in VOX mode for Legacy Cards. The setting range is 1 for Legacy Cards and 0 for all others.

ƒ Eng Lo

This setting is for the energy threshold that determines the minimum level in which to maintain the call recording. The range is from 0 to -51. The default setting is 0.

ƒ Eng Hi

This setting is for the sound threshold that determines the maximum level in which to trigger the recording. The range is from 0 to -60. The default setting is 0.

   

Note: If you enter a value outside the allowable range for Eng settings you will receive an error for the

null value. The error will state “Invalid variant type conversion”.

Integrated DAC Encoding

Mu-law algorithm (ì-law) is a standard analog signal compression algorithm, used in digital communica-tion systems of the North American digital hierarchy, to optimize, i.e., modify the dynamic range of an analog signal prior to digitizing. It is similar to the A- law algorithm used in Europe. Choose the appropri-ate algorithm for your country. The Not Present selection will use standard linear encoding for the channel.

   

Note: Smartworks Voice Cards require the Mu-law checked for D-Channel configured systems.

Agents Tab

This tab is for creating new Agents or for modifying Agents. The example below shows the Agent Tab in a

Fixed Seating environment which shows an additional section called “Details” (shown below).

Adding or Modifying Agents

Select the New or Modify buttons.

Assign a unique Agent ID and Password for each individual Voice Print user. Passwords are case sensitive and spaces are valid characters. Enter a unique numeric Agent ID (up to 5 digits) and an alphanumeric password (up to 15 characters). Fill in the Agent information including the First and Last Name, then click

Modify or Add. When adding new agents to the system, Voice Print will keep the Add New Agents window

open until you are finished.

(32)

32

Deleting Agents

To delete an Agent from the system, highlight the Agent and then select the delete button. You will receive the following warning:

Select Yes to permanently delete the Agent from the system.

Adding and Defining Rights

Use the User Type/Rights check boxes to select and allow Administrator, Search/Playback, and Live Monitor-ing rights, as necessary.

; Administrator (Solid Check Mark)

A solid check mark allows access to all sub-tabs of the Voice Print Setup tab. First Level Administrators have the ability to see current system status, search and playback all calls, live monitor all calls, maintain archive media, setup system parameters, add and delete users, disable channels, add/edit channel names, change user’s rights, and shutdown the Voice Print Server. If you have Administrator Rights there is no need to check the other User Type/Rights check boxes or to define Group Access. First Level Administrators have Full authority to Voice Print so be careful how you assign this User Right!

; Administrator (Light Gray Check Mark)

There are two levels of Administrator. A light gray check mark is for second level administration and allows access to All Tabs with the exception being the Voice Print Setup Tab. The Voice Print

Setup Tab is limited to the Channels and Agents Tab only. Under the Agents Tab, you only have

rights to modify Agent Names (can’t see password or change Agent ID) and cannot grant Adminis trator rights (all other rights are applicable). Under the Channels Tab, you cannot configure the

Advanced Channel Feature. Second level administrators cannot Exit (shutdown) Voice Print.

(33)

33 ; Search/Playback

This checkbox allows access to the Search/Playback tab. Additionally, Agents will have the ability to view System Status, Channel Activity, and maintain Archive Media on the Voice Print Server. ; Self Playback Only

This checkbox allows Agents to playback export and save calls tagged only with their own Agent

ID. This feature only works in conjunction with the Search/Playback tab. Additionally, Agents will

have the ability to view System Status, Channel Activity, and maintain Archive Media on the Voice

Print Server.

   

Note: Self Playback Only overrides any settings in Group Access in a fixed seating

environment. Self Playback Only is not applicable in a free seating environment so you will need to assign the Agent to a Channel Group(s) using Group ID or Group

Access for playback capability.

; Export Calls

This checkbox allows the user to export a call to email or to a file if the Search/Playback box is also checked. Additionally, Agents will have the ability to view System Status, Channel Activity, and maintain Archive Media on the Voice Print Server. For the export to email feature to work, a MAPI

profile must be setup on the Voice Print Server.

; Live Monitor

This checkbox allows access to the Live Monitor Tab where you can monitor a call in real-time. Additionally, Agents will have the ability to view System Status, Channel Activity, and maintain

Archive Media on the Voice Print Server. You can restrict which channels can be Live Monitored by

checking the Disable Live Monitoring checkbox on a per channel basis (see the Channels Tab for instructions).

Privacy Locks (CTI Environment)

Privacy Locks provide the Agent protection against any users who do not have administrator rights.

; Record Agent

In a CTI environment, Voice Print checks to see if we should be recording the Agent based on this checkbox.

; No Call Playback

Disables second level Administrators to playback calls for this Agent. ; No Live Monitoring

Disables second level Administrators to Live Monitor calls for this Agent.

(34)

34

Details (Only viewable in Fixed Seating Environments)

The Details Section for the Agents Tab is only viewable in a Fixed Seating environment. Fixed Seating corre-lates Agent ID’s to Channel Numbers if the Agents Extension Number matches a Channel Extension Number. This will allow Agents to search and playback calls by their Agent ID.

ƒ Extension

Enter the Agent’s Extension Number (5 digit numeric length). This correlates Agent ID’s to Channel

Numbers if the Agents extension number matches a Channel extension number. This will allow Agents to search and playback calls by their Agent ID.

ƒ Department ID

As desired, enter an alphanumeric description (9 character limit). ƒ Desk Location

As desired, enter an alphanumeric description (20 character limit). 

 

Note: If the entry is an exact match from the Desk Location entry in the Details Section from the

Channels Tab, then Voice Print will append the Agents Agent ID to the call. This will allow Agents to search and playback calls by their Agent ID.

ƒ Class of Service (COS)

Allows you to tag and retain calls from 5 to 365 days in LTS for the selected Agent (the default equals 0 or none). A COS tagged Call is not written to archive media. When the retention level of a

COS tagged Call is met it is deleted from LTS. When the LTS setting is less than the COS

retention level setting, then the LTS setting will take precedence and delete the call from LTS first. If the Channels Tab > Details section already contains an entry for COS then it will override this entry.

Group ID and Group Access

At least one Group ID or Group Access is required for an Agent to playback calls in a Free Seating

Environ-ment and it’s an option in a Fixed Seating EnvironEnviron-ment. The Self Playback selection overrides any setting in

Group ID or Group Access and is only applicable in a Fixed Seating Environment.

(35)

35 ƒ Group ID

Assign a single Group ID (from the Group ID Number assigned in the Channels Tab) for the Agent to access calls.

ƒ Group Access

Group Access allows you to select more than one Group ID for the Agent to access calls. You can

select up to as many as 95 Groups.

This example shows access to all Groups.

(36)

36

Buffer Manager Tab

The Buffer Manager Manages the Short-Term (Primary) and Long-Term (Secondary) storage buffers. 



Note: Do not change the device drives for Storage Buffers unless instructed to do so by Voice Print

Technical Support.

BUFF 01-Primary Buffer Device (Short Term Storage)

BUFF 01 is the Short-Term (Primary) Storage area where recorded but un-archived calls reside.

(37)

37 As the buffer fills, the color status indicator will change from green to yellow and then eventually red. The next archive session (default every 30 minutes) will archive calls from the Primary Buffer to DVD Media and copy calls to the Secondary Buffer (LTS). As the Primary Buffer empties, the indicator will revert back to yellow and then eventually to a green status. If the indicator stays in the red then this indicates an overflow condition (i.e., Archive Media is full and needs to be changed).

The Free Space Alarm will send an event to the Event Center to notify you that disk space is limited. To adjust the range; slide the scroll bar from the left at 3% (97% free space remaining) or to the right at 50% of free disk space remaining. 3% is the recommended setting because the higher the alarm is set the more alarm notifica-tions you will receive, and some may be unnecessary.

BUFF 02-Secondary Buffer Device (Long Term Storage)

BUFF 02 is the Long Term Storage (LTS) area that contains archived recordings for on-line instant retrieval and

playback. This is typically the remaining 90% of fixed disk space remaining on the hard drive (partition F). If space requirements are not enough for your environment, then map BUFF 02 to a NAS unit or a Network

Drive.

BUFF 02 will also progress from green to yellow and then eventually red as the buffer fills. When the color

indicator stays in the red this indicates that disk space is limited. As stated in BUFF 01, use the Free Space

Alarm to send an event to the Event Center to notify you that disk space is getting limited. To adjust the Free Space Alarm use the method as described in BUFF 01.

  

Note: Buffer overflow does not apply to LTS.

The Voice Print server has backup buffers configured to ensure normal system operation (explained next).

On Alarm (Overflow Backup Buffers for Primary Buffer)

When an overflow condition exits, one of the following rules can be selected: • Stop Logging

This will disable the system from recording any further calls. Not recommended!Scan and Overflow to Any Local Fixed Disk Devices

This will look for any other space on any local fixed drive contained within the server and write to that location. The sequence goes from F (LTS) to E to D to C. When the Primary Buffer local drive (E) can accept more data, then the system will retrieve the files written to the remote drive(s) and archive them accordingly. This is the recommended method!

Scan All Drives and Overflow to Any Available Device

This will look for any other space on any mapped network drive and write to that location. The sequence goes from last network mapped drive (i.e. Z) and works its way up to the next mapped network drive and so forth. When the Primary Buffer local drive (E) can accept more data, then the system will retrieve the files written to the remote drive(s) and archive them accordingly.

Long Term Storage (LTS) Overview

The setting used to control the size of the Secondary Buffer is the Long Term Storage Manager. Based on this setting (in hours) determines the space requirement for the buffer. If set to high you will receive an overflow condition. If set to low (and there is still plenty of space) then you will be loosing the ability to retain as many calls on-line as possible therefore causing archive media to be inserted for call playback. The default setting is 1440 hours (or 60 days). It’s best to review this setting and adjust it incrementally based on your call volume.

(38)

38

Archive Manager Tab

Archive Sessions

By default, Voice Print performs an Archive Session every 30 minutes. The archive session copies all record-ings created during the previous 30 minutes from the Primary Buffer to Archive Media (DVD) and to the Long

Term Storage (LTS) Secondary Buffer and the database is updated to reflect the current location of each call.

LTS is the Secondary Buffer, and by default is the remaining partition of the hard-drive. However, the device

selected for the Secondary Buffer can be a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device residing on the network.

Sweep Sessions

By default, Voice Print performs a Sweep Session during every fourth archive session. The sweep session reviews the list of archived call records and removes calls that are older than the LTS hour setting (refer to the Buffer Manager section). The default setting for LTS Buffer Hours is 1440 hours or approximately 60 days worth of calls (i.e., 1440 hrs.÷ 24hrs = 60 days).

ARCH01-Primary Archive Device

ARCH01 stands for Archive Device number 1. The indicator gives status of the first archive device. The blue

sliding indicator gives a graphical representation of how full the archive media is. Status indicates the current state of the drive and loaded media. Archive ID displays the currently loaded media ID number. Free indicates how much free space is available on the currently loaded media.

(39)

39 As the media fills, the color status indicator will change from green to yellow and then eventually red. If the indicator stays in the red then this indicates the media is full and needs to be changed.

The Change Media Alarm will send an event to the Event Center to notify you that archive is full. To adjust the range; slide the scroll bar from the left at 1% (99% free space remaining) or to the right at 20% of free space remaining. 1% to 5% is the recommended setting because the higher the alarm is set the more alarm notifica-tions you will receive, and some may be unnecessary.

ARCH02-Secondary Archive or Playback Device

ARCH02 indicates the status of the second archive device if it is present. Each of the indicators works exactly

as described in ARCH01. Systems configured with “Mirrored” archive devices will show the drive as LOCKED and FULL at all times. ARCH02 can also be setup to store data sequentially. Therefore when ARCH01 is full, data will begin to archive to ARCH02.

  

Note: Media is Type 1 double-sided 9.4GB (4.7GB per side) in non removable disk cartridges. Media Recycle Options
