Figure 111: Troubleshooting advanced
Line CPC/Disconnect Clear 
If calls are accidentally disconnected in mid conversation, it usually 
indicates a problem with the telephone line. TalkSwitch is always looking 
for a hang-up signal, called a CPC or Disconnect Clear signal, from the phone 
company. If the line has power fluctuations or if the line card at the central 
office is defective, CPC signals in the 250 ms range might come down the 
line and cause TalkSwitch to hang up. Try increasing this value to correct 
the problem.
Ringback Control
If an extension seems to ring back as if a caller was on hold, but when 
answered, no one is there, it could indicate a debounce problem with the 
phone hook switch. When someone at the extension hangs up, the handset 
bounces slightly to cause a flash signal that can be seen by TalkSwitch 
before the hang-up. As a result, TalkSwitch puts the line on hold. To help 
with this problem, increase this value until it stops ringing back. 
Fax Detection
If fax calls are not directed to the fax machine, you may need to set this 
option to Detect 1 tone. If it is set to Detect 1 tone and people complain they 
have accidentally been routed to the fax machine, set this value to 
Detect 2 tones.
