Verify Registration with the Proxy Server/Registrar:
If you are testing a Registering Trunk and configured VoIP, Proxy settings on
page 3, the T-BERD/MTS automatically sends a REGISTER message to the Proxy
Server/Registrar. A Green phone labeled “Registered” in the LED panel
indicates successful registration.
Inbound Call Testing:
1. Using your cell phone, dial the billing
telephone number (BTN) for the T-
BERD/MTS or PBX.
2. Allow the call to ring at least 2 times.
Confirm the ringback tone is heard on your
cell phone and tap .
3. Put on the headset. If the headset includes
an on/off switch and volume control, turn
it on and adjust volume to desired level.

4. Confirm that voice is heard, and voice quality is acceptable on the T-BERD/MTS’s headset and on
the Cell Phone. If static is heard on your cell phone, move the headset’s microphone boom
farther away from your mouth to avoid overdriving the microphone.
5. Hang up the call from your cell phone. Verify that the call status on the T-BERD/MTS changes to
IDLE.

Troubleshooting Tips:
•The VoIP test will be greyed out in the Select Test menu if tests have been launched on both Port
1 and Port 2. You must remove one test before launching VoIP. Tap the icon next to the Port
1 tab in the Select Test bar or tap in the Select Test menu to remove the test.
•If you are testing a Registering Trunk and the T-BERD fails to automatically register, tap the
Register button in the Main Action Panel at the bottom of the screen.
•A wide variety of call statistics can be viewed in the results screen, by changing the Results
category and group from Summary/Status to other selections including Content/Current Call
Scores, Content/Historical Call Stats, Transport/QOS, Transaction Log/Signaling, Ethernet/Stats,
and more.
•If your T-BERD is optioned with packet capture options (C5LSCAPTURE or C510GCAPTURE), SIP
Signaling messages can be captured and analyzed with WireShark. Tap Start Capture in the
capture tab at the bottom of the screen to initiate packet capture.
•Voice quality can vary greatly on different model headsets. If voice quality is poor but MOS
Scores are acceptable, try a different headset.
