Why Make POTS Voice Calls?
There are several reasons for using a POTS plug-in module in voice mode and
they include:
To make a standard voice call from a
T
ieline
codec;
To integrate a voice call into program content; or
To dial into a hybrid telephone from a
T
ieline
codec.
Sometimes it may be necessary to make a voice call because there is no
T
ieline
codec at one end of a connection. At other times it may be necessary to integrate
a voice call into a broadcast, or you may simply want to make a voice phone call
for communications. Remember, voice calls are only 3 kHz in bandwidth.

Selecting POTS Voice Mode
Programming POTS voice mode can be done in one of two ways – either using
the codec menus or using
Tool
Box
software.
To program via the codec menus there are two alternatives. The easiest way is to
use the POTS wizard. Select the POTS connection that you wish to connect with
using the
MENU SELECTOR
. Next, select
SOFTKEY 3 Wiz
then press
OK
and
scroll to and select
Setup Voice Analog
. Press
OK
to complete the configuration.
Please note:
The other way to configure a plug-in module for voice mode is to
select [Menu] > [Configuration] > [POTS Left/Right Setup] > [Operating Mode] >
[Voice Analog].
The connection should display on the screen as shown in the following image.
Note that the connection is called
POTSV
and in this example we are looking at
the
LCD
menu screen of a
COMMANDER
G
3
rack unit codec.
It is also possible to program GSM voice
mode using the
POTS
tab in
Tool
Box
software. To do this use the
Operating Mode
drop-down menu and select
Voice Analog
.
