  • Page 4: Mycalls Call Recorder

    MyCalls Call Recorder MyCalls Call Recorder gives you the ability to record and playback trunk calls made on an SV9100 / SV8100 / SL Series PBX. The call recording software can record ISDN, SIP and analogue trunk calls. For ISDN calls, a recording unit is placed between the Network Termination Equipment (NTE) and the physical trunk card in the PBX.
  • Page 5: Mycalls Licensing

    MyCalls Licensing MyCalls Call Recorder requires a MyCalls Call Manager or MyCalls Call Centre license to be installed on the PBX. When you buy a call recording package, you will also receive a MyCalls Call Recording license based on the number of call recording channels you have. This license will need to be installed on the SV9100 / SV8100 / SL and read from the PBX using the MyCalls license manager.
  • Page 6: Call Recording Software Licensing

    Call Recording Software Licensing The call recording software requires a license before you can record any calls or open the calls application. An ‘Activation Code’ is supplied when a call recording package is purchased, during the licensing process this license becomes tied to the ‘Machine ID’ of the call recording server. In instances where many different call recorder packages are used, it’s possible to enter multiple activation codes.

    Exact Channel Mapping MyCalls uses a best effort matching system to tag calls in the recorded calls database with calls in the MyCalls database. In some circumstances MyCalls cannot guarantee to correctly match the correct call in the two databases. In order to get around this problem Exact Channel Mapping can be used. Exact Channel Mapping is recommended for sites that take a large number of calls on one particular DDI or where multiple Call Recording units are used.

  • Page 66: Single Bri Unit

    Single BRI Unit The same concept applies to Basic rate, with a single BRI unit to assign a Unit ID, Port number and Channel Number to a Trunk Number in MyCalls. Unless multiple units are being used, the unit ID will always be 0.
  • Page 67: Multiple Units

    Multiple Units When using multiple units, the same concept applies to the Channel Mapping for each trunk on the PBX. The only difference is each Call Recording unit must be given a unique ID, this would usually be 0, 1, 2, or 3 as applicable. By default each unit comes with unit ID 0. To check or change the CSID of a unit, open the Calls application and from the Box Menu, select Device Options.

    Stop / Start Call Recording Stop / Start Recording is a licensed feature in MyCalls and allows part of a call recording to be silenced for a period of time. This is usually required when a user is taking sensitive information such as credit card details from a caller.
  • Page 72 Once a user has been enabled for Stop / Start Recording and they login to one of the MyCalls Application, they will see the Stop / Start Recording Button. The button will change colour based on the status of the extension. When the button is greyed out the extension that the MyCalls user is logged onto is not on a call.
  • Page 73: Stop / Start Recording Client

    Stop / Start Recording Client The Stop / Start Recording Client is a separate application that runs in the system tray independently from the other MyCalls applications. The client can be installed as part of the MyCalls Client installation and can be added to the Client Installer, further information on how to install the client is available in the MyCalls Installation manual.
  • Page 74: Assigning Windows User To Mycalls Users

    Assigning Windows User to MyCalls users When the Stop / Start Recording client starts, it looks at the user that is logged on to the PC and then looks to see if the user is assigned to any MyCalls users. If this is the case and MyCalls can match the two together then it will logon to the Stop / Start Recording application with the assigned MyCalls user.
  • Page 75: Automatic Stop Start Recording

    Automatic Stop Start Recording Call Recording can also be stopped and started automatically based on a user having a certain application in view or by being in a particular field being selected in an application. There are many different applications that a user may want to integrate with, for this reason there is a test application available.
