VMSC - MAS - Telephony Interface Dialog Box (Analog)

This topic describes how to use the Telephony Interface dialog box to configure ports, if you are using Control LAN (C-LAN), Digital Multiplexed Interface - 4 (DMI-4), Inband, or Serial RS-232 integration.

You can set the playback volume and configure the number of ports that connect the MAS with the Private Branch Exchange (PBX). You can enable ports and configure properties for each of them.
