CHAPTER 1

About MaxAgent

Installation
MaxAgent is a Windows desktop application designed to improve the
performance of workgroup and call center agents in a MAX
Communication Server ACC/ACM (MAXCS) environment.
MaxAgent allows workgroup agents to manage workgroup calls from their
computers. It allows direct access to call handling and other functions,
including the following:
• Viewing caller data (for example, IP address, account number, credit
card number, name, and so on) sent with an incoming call
• Viewing queue data and other workgroup-related statistics, agent’s
performance, and member login/logout
• Exporting and printing workgroup queue and performance data
• Setting up group meetings
In addition, MaxAgent integrates with Microsoft Outlook and Outlook
Express, ACT!, and GoldMine® for caller screen pops and dialing out from
these applications.
Call information can be stored to an internal or external CDR database for
future review and analysis.

New in Release 6.5 Update1
The following features are new in Release 6.5 Update1:
• Dialing Using Smart Tags—Phone numbers that appear in Internet
Explorer and Microsoft Office programs can be dialed through your
active MaxAgent/MaxCommunicator/MaxOutlook by either clicking
an icon (in Internet Explorer) or choosing Dial by MaxClient from a
Smart Tag (in Microsoft Office programs). Requires configuration on
the MaxAgent/MaxCommunicator/MaxOutlook’s Configuration >
General screen and in each Microsoft Office program.

MaxAgent Manual 1

• Dialing Using Shortcut Keys—You can select a phone number from
any window, for example, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word, Excel,
Notepad, and so on, and then dial that phone number by pressing two
or three keys you define for this task. Requires configuration on the
MaxAgent/MaxCommunicator/MaxOutlook’s Configuration >
General screen (Select-n-Dial option).
• Automatic Dialing—Any phone number you dial using a Smart Tag
or the Select-n-Dial method can be dialed automatically, or you can
choose to simply have that phone number put in the dialer box.
Configure this option on the Configuration > General screen.
• MaxCall—Allows you to hand over an outgoing connected call to the
MAXCS system so that it can play a pre-recorded message to the call,
for example a marketing campaign script. This frees your extension to
make the next call. This feature is available on the MaxCall tab. A
MaxCall license must be assigned to your extension before you can see
the MaxCall tab.

Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express Support
MaxAgent 6.5 Update1 supports Microsoft Outlook 2003 and 2007,
allowing you to obtain phone numbers to dial from a Microsoft Outlook
Contact list. MaxAgent also lets you see the incoming calls that have a
matching record in the Contact list.
You must set up the Outlook Contacts list prior to using this feature.

ACT!/GoldMine® Support
MaxAgent 6.5 Update1 supports ACT! 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010 and
GoldMine® 6.5, 6.7, and 7.0 contact management software, allowing you
to obtain phone numbers to dial from the ACT! or GoldMine® contact
database list. MaxAgent also lets you see the matching record from the
contact database list of the incoming calls.
Note: Before ACT! can work with MaxAgent, you MUST install the
ACT! Plugin.
Note: ACT! and Goldmine are not supported in MaxAgent for OCS,
described in “MaxAgent in Microsoft Office Communicator” on
page 85.

Pre-Installation Checklist
Before installing MaxAgent, make sure the following is done:
• MAXCS ACC/ ACM 6.5 Update1 has been installed on the system
server.
• TCP/IP is enabled on both machines.
• The client is able to connect to the server on the network.
• The person installing MaxAgent has local administrator rights on the
client PC.
• The extension affiliated with the client PC has a MaxAgent Seat

installed in the MAXCS system.

MaxAgent Manual 5

Installing MaxAgent on a Client System
When the above items are done, follow these steps on the client machine:
1. Exit all Windows applications.
2. Insert the MAXCS 6.5 Update1 Clients CD into the CD ROM drive.
3. Open the MaxAgent folder, and run the Setup program in that folder,
following the step-by-step installation instructions as they appear on
the screen.
Alternatively, if your system administrator has loaded MaxAgent on a
shared network server, you can copy the files in the MaxAgent folder to
your desktop PC, and run the MaxAgent Setup program.

Uninstalling MaxAgent
1. From the Windows Start menu, select Control Panel > Add/Remove
Programs > MaxAgent 6.5 Update1.
2. Click Remove, and respond to any additional prompts.

Automatic Upgrade
Each time you start up MaxAgent, a comparison is made with the version
of MAXCS ACC/ACM that is running on the server. If updates were made
on the server, and your version of MaxAgent is out-of-date, you are
prompted for upgrade permission. If you automatically upgrade, the
MaxAgent startup is terminated and a software upgrade session is started.
Restart MaxAgent to run the newer version.
Note: For remote MaxAgent users outside the firewall, TCP port 10050
is required to be open to allow automatic upgrade. Also, automatic
upgrade over the Internet requires the sending of 15 MB files over
the WAN, so it may take some time to perform the automatic
update.

Downgrade Procedure
1. Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove the
MaxAgent 6.5 Update1 program and ALL OTHER 6.5 Update1 client

check the Enable IPTalk softphone check box. (An AltiGen IPTalk
license must be assigned to your extension.)
(Even if you do not have an IP phone, as long as your extension is set
up as an IP extension by your system administrator, you can check the
Enable IPTalk softphone check box.)
See “Logging In Remotely” on page 11 for more information on using
IP extensions remotely.

the exception of the ability to configure One Number Access. You can pick
up voice mail, forward local business office phone calls to another site such
as a home desktop PC, and even receive phone calls as you would at the
office.

To log in from a remote location
1. If you connect to the Internet through a modem connection, establish
a connection to your internet service provider (ISP).
2. Log in using your Extension and Password as usual.
3. If you will be using a headset plugged into your PC, check the Enable
IPTalk softphone check box. If you will be using MaxCall, check the
Enable MaxCall check box.

MaxAgent Manual 11

IP Extensions Using IP Talk
To use IPTalk, you need an AltiGen-certified USB headset system (your
phone system administrator or AltiGen dealer can recommend headsets).
Important: You can run only one instance of MaxAgent with IPTalk per
system.

To make and receive calls using IPTalk
1. Connect your headset to your PC.
2. Use the MaxAgent dialing and call accepting functions as usual to
make and receive calls.

When Connection Is Broken

asking if you want to connect again. Clicking Yes will restore the
connection without you having to go through the log-in process again.

provides tools to manage and monitor calls, and is your window into your
workgroup environment.
You can customize the MaxAgent display: select the theme; the toolbar
buttons, tabs, and columns you need and their order of appearance; the sort
order; and so on. See “Customizing the Display” on page 22.

Shortcut-key dialing—If you configured your MaxAgent to let you use
shortcut keys to dial a selected phone number in another program, for
example, Excel or Internet Explorer, you can make a call by selecting the
number and using those shortcut keys. To find out more about this option
and how to configure it, see “Select-n-Dial” on page 62.

Transferring Calls
MaxAgent allows for both supervised transfer (in which you confirm the
transfer with the target) and blind transfer. Before transferring, you can
type a note in the User Data field of the call (for the call to carry user data,
it must be a trunk call), and that note will be displayed on the MaxAgent
screen of the person receiving the transfer. The agent receiving the transfer
can add data to this field but cannot delete data.

Clicking in the User Data field opens the User Data
dialog box, where you can type a note. (See page 33.)

(What you type in the User Data field for the call is also displayed on the
History tab in the call’s Note field.)
Note: If user data is written to an internal call, the content is saved as a
call memo but cannot be carried with the call.
You may transfer calls in the following ways:
Dragging—Drag and drop the call (either while it’s ringing or connected)
onto the target number on the Directory, Speed Dial, Contacts, or
Monitor tabbed pages.

can wait for the person to answer and then confirm or cancel the transfer.

Using MaxAgent
At any time before or after the person you’re transferring to answers
the phone, you can cancel the transfer by clicking the No button or by
closing the dialog box.
If the transfer is canceled, MaxAgent reconnects the call to your
extension. The call is also reconnected if the third party doesn’t
answer.

If you want the note you type in the User Data field of the call to be
displayed on the IP phone LCD of the person receiving the call, do the
following:
In the Call Comment field of the User Data dialog box, enter DISP= and

Making Conference Calls
There are two types of conference calls in MaxAgent:
• Station conferencing. In this type of conferencing, when you’re on a
call, you can dial a third party and then conference that party in to the
call. Any internal user is able to add parties to this type of conference
call.
• MeetMe conference. If your company has this feature available, you
can schedule a meeting to take place at a specified time in the future
and invite people to the meeting. Invited people call the MeetMe
conference extension number to join the meeting at the designated
meeting time. (See “MeetMe Conference” on page 37.)

Station Conferencing

Using MaxAgent
Using this method, you may conference up to six calls.
Note: In order to conference incoming calls, Single Call Waiting,
Multiple Call Waiting or Live Call Handling must be checked in
the MaxAgent Configuration window, Extension > Call
Handling screen.
You may conference calls in the following ways:
• Dragging—While connected to one party, drag a Hold call to the
Connected call, or drag a number from the Directory, Speed Dial,
Contacts, or Monitor tabs to the Connected call. Repeat to add more
callers. Each call in the conference displays Conferencing state.

drop a call from the conference.

When Conference Participants Are Reduced to Two
The station conference bridge is released when the number of conference
participants is reduced to two. The displayed state changes from
“Conference” to “Connected” in MaxAgent. The call can then be
transferred, parked, or tagged with an account code, and another party with
privilege can monitor, barge in, listen to, or coach the call.

MeetMe Conference

Using MaxAgent
Conference

Note: Changing the host does not affect the Mute setting for the original
host or the new host. If the new host was muted before the transfer
of hosting duties, that host will have to UnMute himself in order
to be heard. Similarly, the original host will still be unmuted if he
was unmuted before transferring hosting duties.

Continuing a Meeting Beyond Its Duration Time
When the scheduled meeting time is up, the meeting may continue if no
other scheduled meeting needs the resources. If another meeting is
scheduled and the resources are needed for that meeting, the current
meeting is terminated.

Joining a MeetMe Conference
Users calling from an extension can join a meeting by dialing the MeetMe
Conference extension number. Users calling through a trunk must first dial
the company number, then the MeetMe extension number.
Users are prompted to dial the meeting ID number. If the meeting has not
yet been started, the user hears an appropriate message and can try again
later.
If a passcode is required, the user is prompted to enter the passcode.

Recording Calls
The voice recording feature in MaxAgent allows a user to record
conversations. Recorded conversations can then be played back through
voice mail or accessed at a centralized location.
Note: The voice recording feature is only available to Triton Analog
extensions and IP extensions.
WARNING: Listening in to or recording a conversation without the
consent of one or both parties may be a violation of local,
state and federal privacy laws. It is the responsibility of the
users of this feature to assure they are in compliance with all
applicable laws.

Recording on Demand
When the system administrator has set your extension to record on demand
(to a central location or to your voice mail), you can use MaxAgent to
initiate the recording.

To record a call—While connected to a call, click the Record
button, or right-click the call and select Start Recording from the context
menu. While a call is being recorded, a round red icon appears in the call’s

your voice mail, you can hear the recording through the AltiGen Voice
Mail System. If the recording is being saved to a centralized location,
contact the system administrator for the location.
Note: Do not enter an account code while recording, because doing so
will disconnect the call.

Using Account Codes
If your system is set up to use account codes, you can associate calls with
specific codes for billing or tracking purposes.

46 MaxAgent Manual

Required account codes—If your extension has been configured to
require account codes for all outbound calls, the Account Code dialog box
pops up prompting you to enter an account code for each outbound call.
The dialog box may or may not contain a list of account codes, depending
on how the administrator has configured your extension. After entering the
code, click OK.
If your extension configuration allows you to override the account code
requirement, you can either enter an account code in the field at the bottom
of the dialog box or enter # to bypass the account code altogether.
Optional account codes—You may enter an account code without being
prompted.

To associate a call in progress with an account code—Click the
Account button, or right-click the number, and choose Account Code from

Using MaxAgent
the menu. The Account Code dialog box pops up:

Workgroups
If your system administrator has configured your extension for monitoring,
you can monitor the activity on the other extensions in your workgroup,
view call history, view workgroup statistics, and view calls in queue.

MaxAgent Manual 51

If you’re a manager, for example, you might monitor to determine whether
you need more resources in a busy environment. Or you might use
monitoring capability to cover calls for a co-worker, since you can click the
ringing phone icon in the monitor list and take the co-worker’s call.

Choosing Workgroups to Monitor
To choose workgroups to monitor:
1. Click the Monitor tab, and click the Monitor button at the
bottom of the Monitor page.
The Change Monitor dialog box opens. Extensions/workgroups to
which your system administrator has given you monitoring rights are
listed here.

2. Select the check boxes next to the extensions/workgroups you want to
monitor, and click OK. If the list is long and you want to search, type
a number or name in the appropriate search box.
The extensions you select will be listed in the Monitor window.

52 MaxAgent Manual

Reading the Monitor List
The monitor window includes these fields: State, Extension, Name,
Activity, DND/FWD, Caller Name, Number, Department, Location,
DNIS, and Duration.
The state can be one of the following:
• Idle—the extension is not in use
• Connected—the extension is in use
• Ringing—the phone on the extension is ringing; you can click the
State field to pick up the call at your own extension
• Conferencing—the extension is on a conference call
• Voicemail—the extension is in voice mail

Using MaxAgent
• Auto Attendant—the extension is connected to an auto attendant
• Holding—the extension is on hold
• Hold Pending—the extension is on hold, and an action is pending
• Virtual Extension

Calling or Picking Up Calls
If a monitored extension is Idle (green dot) you can click its Extension field
to ring the extension.
If a monitored extension is Ringing (red dot), you can click its State field
to pick up the call.

Viewing the Call History
Click the History tab to view data about handled calls.

MaxAgent Manual 53

Note: Click on the column headings to sort the data.
The History tab displays the following fields:
• Direction—indicates if the call is incoming or outgoing, or was a
missed call. Left-pointing green arrow indicates outgoing call; right-
pointing red arrow indicates incoming call. Right-pointing arrow with
exclamation point indicates a missed call.
• Number—the extension or phone number on the other end of the call.
Click a number in the Number column to dial that number.
• Name—Caller ID information, if available.
• Date/Time—the date and time of the call.
When you sort on Date/Time, the calls are sorted by last disconnected
and not in the order the call was received. It is therefore possible to
have a record with an earlier timestamp followed by a record with a
later timestamp.
Also, the timestamp for call data is based on the client system, while
the timestamp for voice mail messages is from MAX Communication
Server. Thus, the times displayed here may not match those in the
voice mail view in the main window.
• Duration—the duration of the call.
• DNIS—DNIS digits collected, if available
• Group—Group number or name
• Note—a note attached to the call. If you entered a note in the User
Data field of the active call, that note appears here. You can also enter
a note on the History tab by double-clicking the Note field and typing
your note.

54 MaxAgent Manual

Using ActiveX Control with Third Party
Applications
The MaxAgent ActiveX Control Object is an ActiveX Object. It works
with MaxAgent by getting call-related information from MaxAgent, which
acts as a server. Based on the call information, MaxAgent will implement
corresponding actions, such as popping up corresponding customer
information and logging Caller ID into a database. For more information on
using ActiveX with MaxAgent, refer to the “MaxAgent ActiveX
Programmer’s Guide” available from AltiGen’s web site
(www.altigen.com, under Customers > Product Manuals > 6.0

62 MaxAgent Manual

• Release Link Tie (IP Trunk)—When checked, clicking the Transfer
button will automatically send “FLASH *” to release a tie trunk if the
incoming call is through an IP trunk. (Option is disabled by default.)
IMPORTANT! Before checking this check box, see your phone
system administrator. If your company is using multiple systems and
the tie trunk feature, the administrator needs to have used Enterprise
Manager to synchronize the systems. Otherwise this feature will not
work.
Note: The call being transferred must originate from an AltiGen PBX
system running AltiWare ACC/ACM 5.0 or later, or MAXCS
ACC/ACM 6.0 or later.
• Disable Auto Format—If the MAX Communication Server’s country
code is US/Canada, MaxAgent automatically adds the long distance/
international dialing prefix (corresponding to the server’s country
code) when returning a call from voice mail or when making a call
from the History tab. If this is not right for your situation, check
Disable Auto Format.
If the MAXCS server’s country code is not USA/Canada, MaxAgent
displays the check box Insert long distance/international dialing
prefix. When checked, MaxAgent will add the long distance/
international dialing prefix (corresponding to the server’s country
code) when returning a call from voice mail, or when making a call
from call history. If the MAXCS server’s country code is USA/
Canada, this check box is not displayed.

according to your Enable Busy Call Handling settings, described below.
Checking Enable Do Not Disturb here has the same effect as clicking the
DND button in the MaxAgent main window.

Busy Call Handling and No Answer Handling
You can use these options to specify how you want to handle incoming
calls when you’re already on the phone or when you can’t answer the
phone, for example, when you’ve checked Enable Do Not Disturb.
If you want to use the auto attendant and you don’t know the number of the
phrase or menu you want to use, check with your system administrator.
Place call in queue is available only if your system administrator has
enabled queuing for you.

64 MaxAgent Manual

Number of Rings Before Forwarding
The Number of Rings Before Forwarding setting pertains to almost all
the options on this screen. It is the number of times the phone rings before
the system forwards the call to an extension, voice mail, or the auto
attendant.
To have MaxAgent automatically pick up the call, check the Enable
Automatic Answering after x Seconds check box and use the arrow keys
to choose the number of seconds.
Note: The default setting is 0 seconds. If the duration is set to 0, all
incoming calls will go to connect state right away. Neither caller
nor callee will hear a ring tone.

Call Waiting Options
Call waiting options are available only if the Enable Busy Call Handling
check box has been checked, but this option is available only for non-
workgroup calls.
• Single Call Waiting—sets up single call waiting. This feature gives an
alert tone (audio beep) to indicate that a call is waiting. Single Call
Waiting must be selected in order to conference incoming calls.
• Multiple Call Waiting—enables a “non-workgroup queue” of
multiple calls waiting. You must also select the Place Call In Queue
option under Enable Busy Call Handling to enable this option. This
allows you to transfer or park the current call before picking up the
next call in queue. Configuration
• Live Call Handling—when enabled, allows a caller to hear a ringback
tone when the called party is in voice mail, paging, transfer, or
conference state.

One Number Access (ONA)
If you are expecting calls that you want to receive regardless of where you
are, you can have the system forward those calls to you. You must specify
the Caller IDs for the calls you want forwarded, and the numbers where you
can be reached.
If the system is unable to connect the call (can’t identify a Caller ID or can’t
reach you at any of the numbers you specify), the call is sent to your voice
mail.

MaxAgent Manual 65

When you answer an ONA call, you may be required to enter your
extension password, depending on the configuration for your extension set
by your system administrator

Before You Set Up ONA
• ONA must be enabled for your extension by your system
administrator.
• The settings on your MaxAgent Call Handling tab must not conflict
with ONA. Specifically:
— Enable Do Not Disturb must not be checked. If it is, when your
line is busy, all calls will go into voice mail and not to the ONA
forwarding numbers you specify.
— Enable Forward to must not be checked. If it is, all calls will be
forwarded according to this setting.
See “Call Handling” on page 63 for details on these settings.

Setting Up One Number Access
To set up one number access,
1. Click Extension > One Number Access in the Configuration window.

2. Select the times you want to be available to ONA callers.

66 MaxAgent Manual

If you choose Enable schedule based access, you can set up to four
different schedules in the dialog box that pops up:

Check a Schedule
box and choose the
times you want to be
available for ONA
from the drop-down
lists.

3. Check the Enable Call Screening check box if you want the system
to prompt the ONA caller to record a caller name to continue ONA.
4. If you want, check the Verify Caller ID based on the following check
box and then specify the incoming phone numbers for ONA. If ONA
finds one of these numbers on an incoming call, it will forward the call
to you.
You can enter up to 10 phone numbers in the Caller ID Verification
fields. For local numbers, use 7 digits (5555555). For long distance
numbers, use 10 digits—area code + local number.
Note: If you enter no numbers in the Caller ID Verification fields and Configuration
ONA is enabled, ONA is made available to every caller.

Using a Password
You can use a Caller ID Verification field to enter a password number
such as “5555” so that a caller who knows this password can use
ONA to find you, regardless of where they are calling from. Tell the
caller to dial 1 during your personal greeting and then enter the pass-
word.
5. Enter the Forwarding Numbers to be used by the system to find you
when ONA is active. You can set up to four different numbers—
extensions or outside numbers. For outside numbers, use the
drop-down list to select the trunk access code you want to use. Specify
whether the number is an extension or outside number and if a
password is required.

MaxAgent Manual 67

When ONA is active, the system dials the forwarding number(s) in
the order from Forwarding Number 1 through Forwarding Number 4.
Note that this number order does not correspond to the Schedule
order—for example, Forwarding Number 2 is not used first during
Schedule Number 2.
Note: If your system administrator has not configured your extension to
require you to enter your extension password when answering an
ONA call, then a call forwarded via ONA that is picked up by a
voice mail box, fax machine, or answering machine will connect,
and will not try any subsequent Forwarding Numbers. Therefore,
if you want ONA to use such an option as a last resort, it should be
Forwarding Number 4.
You can set the ONA ring duration from 5 to 45 seconds using the Ring
drop-down lists. Default value is 20 seconds. The system will ring the ONA
target during the specified time limit. If the ring time exceeds 30 seconds,
the system will play a phrase every 15 seconds (playing time is included in
ring time).

Message Notification
You can specify how and when you’d like to be alerted to new messages
when you’re away from your desk. Click Extension > Message
Notification in the Configuration window to display the Message
Notification configuration screen.

68 MaxAgent Manual

You can set these notification options:
• The types of messages about which you want to be alerted: none,
urgent voice messages only, or all voice messages.
• Schedule—Select during what hours you want to be alerted.
• How and where to notify you—Select an option in the Notification
or Reminder Message by calling section. If you want to use an
outside number, use the drop-down list to select the trunk access code,
and then type in the number. Configuration
• Voice Mail Groups—You can set up and edit voice mail groups.
Note: You can also configure Message Notification through the AltiGen
Voice Mail System.

Working with Voice Mail Groups (Distribution Lists)
You can set up voice mail groups (distribution lists) to forward messages
to multiple recipients at the same time. You can set up to 100 personal voice
mail (VM) groups, each with 64 members. Group members can be any
extension or another voice mail group.
There are two types of voice mail groups you can use:

MaxAgent Manual 69

• System-based groups are set up by the system administrator. You can
use but not edit these lists in MaxAgent. You can, however, add a
comment that is displayed in your MaxAgent.
• Personal groups can be set up and modified in MaxAgent or in your
AltiGen Voice Mail System.

Working on Voice Mail Group Lists

Call Alert Options
If you want MaxAgent to inform you when you have a call, specify your
desired method(s) in the Configuration window’s Options > Alert screen.

You can set these alert options:
• Disable—Disable screen pop.
• Screen Pop—When a new call comes in while MaxAgent is
minimized on the taskbar, the MaxAgent main window pops up. You
can then answer the call or perform other MaxAgent actions. For
MaxAgent to pop up, you cannot have closed the application entirely.
• Inbound call alert—When a new call comes in, a window pops up
and gives you the option to answer the call or send it to voice mail:

Answer
Send to VM

• Audio Beep—Your PC beeps you when you have a call.
• Auto Close—The pop up window closes once you have finished with
the call.

72 MaxAgent Manual

• Waiting time longer than—A message window pops up when a call
has been waiting in queue longer than the time you specify here. You
must close the window manually.
• Calls in queue exceed—A message window pops up when the
number of calls in queue exceeds the number you specify here. You
must close the window manually. The window shows the “exceeds”
alert only when the threshold is first crossed. For example, if you have
configured your MaxAgent to show the alert when calls in queue
(CIQ) exceeds 3, the window will pop up only when CIQ changes from
3 to 4; it will not pop up again when CIQ changes from 4 to 5 or more.

Voice Mail Play Options
Choose Options > Play Voicemail in the Configuration screen to set voice
mail play options.

Configuration

You can choose to play your messages on your phone set, or play them on
your sound card and speakers. If you choose to play them on your sound
card, you can have the message play as it downloads, or you can download
it completely and play it on an external media player.

MaxAgent Manual 73

CRM Integration
MaxAgent can access phone numbers from your Microsoft Outlook,
Outlook Express, ACT!, or GoldMine® database. During installation, the
install program reads which applications you have installed on your PC.
You can also integrate MaxAgent with your Microsoft Office
Communications Server (OCS) account for instant messages. The OCS
contacts can be imported from Microsoft Outlook client.
Configure CRM integration in the Configuration window’s Integration
screen:

Use Database Selector—Check this check box to allow integration of your
company’s CRM database with your MaxAgent, then select your CRM
program from the Select current database drop-down list.
Update database when click “OK” button—When you check this check
box, MAX Communication Server refreshes the data MaxAgent accesses
from the database.
Note: If you select Outlook, MAX Communication Server will load all
the subfolders and data in your main Contacts folder, which will
take a few moments. Once the data is loaded, you can close the
Configuration window, reopen it, and click the Select Folder
button that now appears to choose which Contacts subfolders you
want to use.

74 MaxAgent Manual

For Screen Pop—Check this box if you want a contact’s contact page to
pop up when you get a call from that contact.
Match Digits—Select the number of digits to match for caller ID.
Matching starts from right and moves left. This option is for calls that go
through IP and for international calls that have a digit prepended, like 0. For
example, if you choose 7 (the default) in the Match Digits field, and the
number is 10.10.10.6- 915102529712, MaxAgent would match the last 7
digits, or 2529712, to identify the caller for you.
Enable OCS Client—Check this box to enable the Microsoft OCS client,
which allows you to initiate instant messaging from MaxAgent.
• Sign in URL—The URL of the Microsoft OCS client
• Server—The IP address of the Microsoft OCS client
Use Windows default credentials—Either check this check box to use
Windows default credentials, or enter the OCS domain, account name, and
account password in the appropriate fields.
Note: The OCS needs to be in the same domain as MAXCS.

clicking in the space to the right of the tabs in the main window and
selecting the tabs you want to show. When no tabs are displayed in the main
window, you can click Voicemail (which displays the Voicemail tab). Or
you can configure the tabs in the Configuration window’s Customization
> Tab Layout screen.

high priority service. However, if your company router supports DSCP
EF, then set this field to “A0”. The ToS value is gateway-based. For
guidance, see your system administrator.
• 802.1—This setting is related to the priority given to voice packets
traversing your network. For guidance on setting this value, see your
system administrator.
• From the Voice Through drop-down list, choose the sound card that
will carry the incoming and outgoing voice. It could be a sound card in
your PC, or it could be a USB-based sound card in your headset
system.

CHAPTER 6

Using MaxCall

Installation
MaxCall is intended for agents involved in marketing campaigns and other
campaigns where the same message must be delivered over and over. Using
MaxCall, you can record scripts, called phrases. Then, when you dial a call
and the other party answers, by clicking a button you can hand the call over
to the MAXCS system, which then plays the phrase you selected. This frees
your extension to make the next call. The feature is available on the
MaxCall tab.
A MaxCall license must be assigned to your extension before you can see
the MaxCall tab.

Logging in to MaxCall
When you log in to MaxAgent, check the Enable MaxCall check box.

When you are logged in, the MaxCall tab is available to you.

The MaxCall Tab
The MaxCall tab looks like the following figure.

MaxAgent Manual 81

The MaxCall tab has the following columns:
• Phrase—List of phrases, or scripts, that you have recorded. These are
stored on the MAXCS server.
• Date—The date the phrase was recorded or last modified.
• Duration—The duration of the phrase in hh:mm:ss format.
• Notes—Notes you enter about the phrase. Double-click the Notes cell
to enter notes.
The drop-down list at the bottom displays campaign names and the transmit
caller ID for each campaign.

Using a Phrase
1. From the Campaign Transmit CID drop-down list, select the
campaign applicable to your call. If the callee’s phone displays caller
ID, his display will show the caller ID configured for this campaign
instead of the actual caller ID.
2. Make a call.
3. If you get the other party’s voice mail, click the Transfer to Phrase
button. MAXCS takes control of the call and plays the selected phrase.
Your phone is released so you can make another call.
Note: Instead of selecting the phrase before making a call and then
clicking the Transfer to Phrase button, you can double-click on a
phrase after the call is connected.

82 MaxAgent Manual

Recording a Phrase
To record a message to add to the phrase list,

To review a phrase,
1. Click the Add/Review Phrase button. The Add/Review Phrase dialog
box opens.
2. Select the Review/Delete button.
3. Select a phrase to review from the drop-down list.

MaxAgent in Microsoft Office

Installation
Communicator
You can install MaxAgent for OCS and use it as an embedded application
in Microsoft Office Communicator.
Note: MaxAgent for OCS requires a MaxAgent license.
How to use MaxAgent is described earlier in this manual. It works the same
in Office Communicator, with a few differences, which are described in
this chapter.
This chapter assumes you know how to use Office Communicator.

Installing MaxAgent for OCS
Requirements and preparation are the same as for the stand-alone version
of MaxAgent. (See “Installation” on page 5.) In addition,
• Your system must be able to run Microsoft Internet Explorer.
• You must have Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 or higher
installed
Follow these steps on the client machine:
1. Exit all Windows applications.
2. Insert the MAXCS 6.5 Update1 Clients CD into the CD ROM drive.
3. Open the "MaxAgent for OCS" folder, and run the Setup program in
that folder, following the step-by-step installation instructions as they
appear on the screen.
Note: Do not install MaxCommunicator for OCS on the same machine as
MaxAgent for OCS. You will not be able to choose which one to
use in Office Communicator.

MaxAgent Manual 85

Using MaxAgent in Office Communicator
To use MaxAgent within Office Communicator, launch Office
Communicator. It detects that you have MaxAgent for OCS installed, and
the following panel appears at the bottom of Office Communicator:

1. Enter your MAXCS server’s IP address, your extension, and your
password.
2. Check any check boxes you want to, and click Sign In.

• Only the Record, State, Name and Number columns are visible by
default. You can make other columns visible by right-clicking a
column heading and selecting the columns you want to see.

Installation
The tabs area is different in the following way:
• MaxAgent has only a tabs bar, and the tabbed pages don’t show in
Office Communicator. To display the tabbed pages, click any tab and
all the tabbed pages appear in full in a separate window that you can
resize, minimize, and dismiss. The Windows taskbar shows a button
for this separate window: MaxAgent for OCS. When you close Office
Communicator, the MaxAgent tabbed pages window closes too.

Figure 3. All MaxAgent tabbed pages open in one separate window
• Tabs have a fixed order. You cannot reorder them.
• To select the tabs you want available to you, in Office Communicator
right-click anywhere on the tab bar, and a list of tabs to select from
appears, as it does in free-standing MaxAgent.
Each tab is displayed in full. If there is not enough room in Office
Communicator to display all the tabs you selected, you can click the
drop-down arrow to the right of the tabs to see the rest of the tabs you
selected:

MaxAgent Manual 89

Figure 4. The drop-down list shows the rest of the tabs you selected
If you select tabs while the MaxAgent tabbed pages window is open,
the window changes to reflect your selections.
To select tabs in the tabbed pages window, itself, you have to have the
window extended horizontally so that you can right-click in the space
at the right of the tabs to open the list of tabs. Clicking anywhere else
does not open the list.

The configuration screens are different in the following ways:
• Integration with ACT! and Goldmine CRM software programs is not
supported in MaxAgent for OCS, as it is in stand-alone MaxAgent.
• No different theme selection is available.

Calling an Extension from Office Communicator
You can call an extension from Office Communicator. To do so, right-click
an extension in Office Communicator and choose Call Extension from the
menu.

Troubleshooting IP Connectivity from a Remote
Location
If problems occur connecting to your company’s MAX Communication
Server from a remote location, they may be due to a failure to connect to
your ISP or due to firewalls at your office preventing direct access to the
MAX Communication Server.
As a test, you can choose Run from the Windows Start menu, then enter
Ping <IP address> [ENTER]
where <IP address> is the MAX Communication Server system you
want to connect to. An example of the IP address format is

If you do not get a response, contact your LAN administrator for support.
Also, check to verify that the necessary ports are open.
