PBX Improvements
Emergency CID on device level
This new capability allows creating a special emergency caller ID on the device level, thus more accurately supporting reporting of the caller’s location, and allowing the emergency services to call back to that specific device.
How it works:
- Each device has new Emergency CID settings
- When set, the Emergency CID will override the normal CID when dialing one of the emergency phone numbers defined in the PBX->Applications->Emergency module.
- The Emergency CID Name field can be used for a descriptive name, like the location of the extension in the building and the address.
- The Emergency CID number will be the number to call back to reach this specific device, regardless of the extension it is associated with or any other PBX settings.
- Import/Export Extensions now support this functionality
- API updated to support this functionality
Note: extension (rather than device) level CID is insufficient in many cases, as an extension may have devices in different locations or a device’s setting may be changed to support a different extension, while the device remains in its location.
Hospitality – Complete Concierge
- After checkout, the extension language will fall back to the system’s default language, rather than always falling back to English.
StatExplorer
It is now possible to use StatExplorer when running the system’s database on a separate server. This is a useful setup for high-intensity systems, as it allows to split the workload between the PBX server and the database server.
