The MiVoice Office Call Recorder Client tracks windows applications and matches window names to server configured rules to check whether any calls recordings in progress need to be paused or not.
The application is an optional part of the Phone Manager installation. Once installed, the application automatically runs each time the user logs into their computer.
The application has two components:
The Call Recorder Client monitors an associated extension and will pause any recordings on the extension when required. By default the client will monitor the user's primary extension unless there is a Phone Manager Desktop Client running on the same desktop. If there is, the Call Recorder Client will monitor the extension that Phone Manager is currently associated to. If the Phone Manager client is closed, the Call Recorder Client will revert back to monitoring the user's primary extension again.
If user's don't have a primary extension and are moving around then they will need to have Phone Manager Desktop client running for the Call Recorder Client to operate correctly.
The system tray icon show the status of the application and provides access to the Settings of the application and the Toolbar. It can be hidden if required using server side configuration. Right-clicking the system tray icon displays the menu that gives access to:
The table below shows all possible states:
Loading, this icon shows when the application first loads | |
Connection Error, the application is not connecting to the MCS server correctly * | |
Idle, this icon will display when the associated extension has no calls | |
On a call, this icon will display when the associated extension has a call that is not being recorded. This occurs when the call is not on a recorded device (could be an internal call or on a trunk that isn't recorded) | |
Recording, this icon displays when there is a call at the associated extension that is being recorded | |
Paused, this icon displays when there is a call at the associated extension that is being recorded but is currently paused. |
The toolbar provides the user with access to manually pause any recording that is in progress and to tag call record with customer specific information such as order numbers or ticket numbers.
