Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 Dialing formats Numbers must be in the canonical dialing format in order for your PDA to use them for dialing. The canonical address format is a universal telephone number format recognized by the WIndows Telephony Application Interface (TAPI). The canonical format identifies the components of a telephone number, which TAPI translates according to a country’s or region’s dialing rules.
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 Figure 19: Phone details dialog box 553-AAA1529 The following are the components for creating and using canonical dialing numbers: • area code, in the Contacts application • dialing properties, called Dialing Locations (see Figure 20 on page 45) Note: Information in the Dialing Locations tab indicates the origin of the call.
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 Figure 20: Dialing locations 45
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 Set the patterns for local, long-distance, and international dialing using Dialing Patterns. See Figure 21. Figure 21: Dialing patterns 553-AAA1534 Area code Set the Area code to provide the default area code for dialed numbers. To establish the default Area code: 1. Select the PDA Contacts > Tools > Options. 2. Assign the correct value to the Country/Region and Area code. See Figure 20 on page 45.
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 The Contacts application prefixes the default area code to numbers you enter in your Contacts application. The PDA attempts to interpret the numbers as canonical. For example: enter a seven-digit number. Contacts assumes that the number is in your area code, and the software adds the area code as a prefix to the seven-digit number to create a canonical number.
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 Example An end user has a DN on a server located in Atlanta and another DN on a server located in New York. The end user has set up two dialing locations: one named “Atlanta”’, with an area code of 404, and another named “New York”, with an area code of 646. The end user also has entered ‘646’ as the default area code in the Contacts application.
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 See your PDA Help system for a description of the values used in dialing patterns. ESN numbers To enter ESN numbers in Contacts, enter the ESN prefix followed by the number. Note: PDA Contacts does not accept the ‘~’ character used in the IP Softphone 2050 to express ESN numbers. You can provide a ‘~’ character to your PDA Contacts application by storing a ‘~’ character prefix digit in your PC Outlook Contacts.
Managing Contacts with Mobile Voice Client 2050 Figure 22: ESN dialing 553-AAA1532 Extension numbers The PDA Contacts application dials extension numbers only if they do not satisfy Microsoft criteria for numbers that require an area code. The following three methods can be used to manage dialing extension numbers: 1. Select Extension in the Phone details dialog box. See Figure 23 on page 51. 2.

Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users This section discusses the selections used to diagnose or correct error conditions, and are not used during normal operation of Mobile Voice Client 2050. Client diagnostics Client diagnostics are used to determine the connection status of the MVC 2050. Access client diagnostics from the Help > Diagnostics screen. See Figure 14 on page 30.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Audio quality Audio quality of voice transmission depends on many factors, such as codec characteristics, echo canceller, jitter buffer size, and listener perception. Audio quality is controlled from two screens: • Audio, the quality slider tab • Advanced Audio (for expert users) Audio quality slider You can control audio quality by using the slider tab to reduce audio delay and increase audio clarity. See Figure 32.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Audio delay If you experience audio delay, you can decrease the number of buffers, and reduce the delay, by adjusting the slider on the Audio screen. Audio clarity If you experience breakups in the receive audio stream, adjust the setting towards Higher Quality. This increases the number of audio buffers used to process incoming audio. If the delay is too large, you can decrease this setting.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Advanced Audio Advanced audio settings are recommended for use only by advanced users. See Figure 33 on page 79. NetEQ software, included with the MVC 2050 software, provides loss concealment and compensation; NetEQ is the default setting. You cannot adjust the MVC 2050 Advanced Audio settings.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Items on the Advanced Audio screen Table 7 describes the selections available on the Advanced Audio screen. Table 7: Advanced Audio screen Selection Description NetEQ (Global IP Sound) NetEQ packet loss concealment software is the default mode of operation. Jitter Buffer The rate of arrival of voice frames is variable. A jitter buffer is used to minimize this variability by sending voice frames to your PDA sound system at a fixed rate.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Listener IP See Figure 34. This screen is for expert users only. It can be used to override the port assignments when a conflicting application is on the PDA. Figure 34: Listener IP screen AAA1209a.bmp AAA1209b.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Items on the Listener IP screen Table 8 describes selections available on the Listener IP screen. Table 8: Listener IP screen Selection Description Use a specific address The MVC 2050 normally listens to all IP addresses on the device for communication server-to-terminal (UNIStim) messaging on all the Network Interface Cards (NIC) on the device. This is the default mode of operation.
Mobile Voice Client 2050 for expert users Figure 35: Hardware ID screen AAA1207.bmp The Hardware ID is generated by reading MAC addresses from the PDA NIC. When the MVC 2050 is used with most server types, the Hardware ID it uses must be unique. Some software, such as VPN client software, creates artificial network interfaces with MAC addresses that are common to all installations of the software.
