Troubleshooting

The default installation folder is "appdata"

Ensure that the folder containing the FIVE CRM Agent has the permissions set to Everyone / Full control

Alternatively follow these steps to change the work file folder (this might have to be done with Run as Administrator):

o

In the FIVE CRM Agent click the button Log /test

o

Select a new folder by clicking the button

button_folder

Check that the FIVE CRM Agent can dial directly

Open the Agent (you may have to click on it in the Windows System Tray)

Click on the button Log / test

Enter a phone number at the top right

Click the button Dial

If it does not dial then check the TAPI driver is installed an configured (some TAPI drivers need to be configured in the Windows Control Panel, Phone & Modem options)

Check if Windows Phone Dialer can dial using the TAPI device (go to Windows Start/Run, type Dialer)

If Windows Phone Dialer does not dial then there is definitely a problem with the TAPI driver or phone

If Windows Phone Dialer does dial then try changing the setting TAPI Mediamode. This can be blank, Datamodem or Interactive Voice. It's just trial and error to find out which one will work.

Only do the next steps after the FIVE CRM Agent can dial directly

Double check the User Dialing method in the system is IP Command and the dial command is:

Turn off all firewalls and anti-virus.

Try the test again.

If that does not work change the User Dialing method in the system to URL Scheme

Enter the dial command: callprodial:dial?telephone=*telephone&rec=*ref

Enter the hangup command: callprodial:hangup

In the FIVE CRM Agent set the Connection method to URL Scheme

Try the test again.

If that does not work try the command directly in a browser (either Firefox or Internet Explorer, NOT Chrome):

Type exactly this, replacing *telephone with your own phone number: callprodial:dial?telephone=*telephone

If that does not work you need to check the setup in the Registry.

DO NOT DO THE NEXT STEP UNLESS YOU ARE AN EXPERIENCED IT PROFESSIONAL

Open the Registry and look for the key:

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\callprodial\shell\open\command

The default value should be:

C:\Users\Username\Documents\fivecrm\callpro_dial.exe "%1"

If you have moved the FIVE CRM Agent to a different folder then this value also needs to be updated.
