Setting up trueCall Secure
Now that you have installed trueCall, recorded a screening
announcement, and put some numbers on the Trusted Callers
list you are ready to carry out three simple tests to check that
everything is working correctly. You will need a mobile phone
whose number is on trueCall’s Trusted Callers list.
Test 1 - Dialling in as a trusted caller
Call in to the landline from your mobile phone - it will ring as
normal. Pick up the landline phone and check that you are
connected. If you hear an announcement then either the
phone line is not supplying the Caller-ID, or your mobile
phone’s number is not on the Trusted Callers list.
Test 2 - Dialling in as an untrusted caller (1)
Call in to the landline from your mobile phone and prefix the
number you dial with ’141’. This will withhold your Caller-ID
making you an unrecognised and untrusted caller. trueCall
will answer the phone and play you the appropriate
announcement. Don’t press any key - your call will be
terminated and the landline phone will not ring.
Test 3 - Dialling in as an untrusted caller (2)
Call in to the landline from your mobile phone and prefix the
number you dial with ’141’. This will withhold your Caller-ID
making you an unrecognised and untrusted caller. trueCall
will answer the phone and play you the appropriate
announcement. Enter the requested key or the Callers Code -
the phone will ring. Pickup and check that you are connected.
Congratulations - trueCall Secure is now set up!
Don’t forget to set up your personal Internet Control Panel so
you can monitor all the calls that are being received (page 19).
