DESCRIPTION

The TELDNTollSaverControl function enables or disables the Call Saver feature for the directory number specified by the hTELDN parameter, according to the value passed in the QuickAnswer parameter. If QuickAnswer is true, a call appearance is answered after the call saver ring count (set by the user in the Auto-answer control panel). If QuickAnswer is false, a call appearance is answered after the auto-answer ring count (the normal number of rings).

IMPORTANT

You must enable a directory number's Auto-answer feature before you can enable its Call Saver feature.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

More than one application can enable or disable the Call Saver feature of a directory number. The Telephone Manager keeps track of which applications have enabled the Call Saver feature; calls are answered after the appropriate number of rings until all applications have disabled the Call Saver feature.
