Are those cards new or old? I can't find a reference to them in the manual.

There is also an LSLU for the CIX 200 only.

Just a few more posts and we will be over 100.

Earlier I asked about a dialing delay when I make calls from a phone on my CTX100 system. Someone rightly told me that if I eliminated the delay, I would lose the redial button. I know someone with a DK16 system. This system has a redial button and no delay. Anyone know why?

Why would anyone want to create confusion with a dynamic ip address and while I am not knowledgeable about that, I can't concieve that Toshiba would create a program that depends on outside services to keep track of an address, it is not how they do business.

Are you using a Release 3 or Release 4?

I know the delay you are talking about. I am pretty sure it is buffering the first couple digits so that the telco be ready to recieve the DTMF tones. I'm guessing this is the primary reason for the delay. Plus the CTX is always proccess the dialed digits to make sure you are making a valid call.

I worked on a DK system where the guy was dialing too fast and telco was missing the first digit, and he made a lot of wrong number calls.

If you set the trunks to "Immediate Cut Through" then there should not be a delay, but redial will not work.

Maybe I didn't dial fast enough on the DK16 to have a problem. I will just have to live with the delay on my CTX100 to keep my redial button.

Here is another question about a difference I have found with the two systems. On my CTX100, I can make a flexible button pick up a specific line and start dialing a phone number with one press. On the DK16, I have to press the intercom button before pressing the flexible button. That flexible button on the DK16 needs to be assigned a speed dial number. On the CTX100 I can assign a whole string of characters directly. Is there any way of doing this as easily on the DK16?

Yes, press your PDN button first and then enter the line access code and phone number.

If you want to leave the Toshiba, you could look for Asterick (spelling?) software on eBay, it is 99 cents but can't be found at the 99 cent store.

You install that in a computer, add a cheap voice card and have a VOIP phone system for two lines.

You could take your phone from bedroom to bathroom to kitchen and still have the same intercom number.

Sounds like a fun way to set up a phone system.

You could always add a Wi-Fi set up and use a USB headset on a computer to make and receive calls, carry the computer around instead of the phone.
