Defining the TeleVantage SoftPhone as your external station ____
The TeleVantage SoftPhone is included with TeleVantage ViewPoint and you can use it as your
TeleVantage phone at any time. However, if you will primarily be using SoftPhone as your
TeleVantage phone, it is more convenient to have it defined as your external station (see “Using
an external station” on page 6-10). Talk to your system administrator about assigning SoftPhone
as your external station.
If you already have an external station, you can configure the SoftPhone as your external station
destination at any time. To do so:
1. Choose Tools > Options. The Options dialog box opens.
2. Click the Phone \ Station Features tab.
3. From the Destination dropdown list, choose “TeleVantage SoftPhone.”
4. Choose an H.323 Internet dialing service under Call Using.
5. Enter your PC’s IP address under Address.
6. Click OK.
