Setting up TAPI, With a TAPI

Page 165 highlights

Configuring the PC Software Setting up TAPI ■ If there is an existing web-server service installed on the workstation computer, then you must enter a new port number in the Setup dialogue of the program StartCenter, for example 8080. In the Web browser, the address line input is then: "http://localhost:8080/". When using different port numbers you can also start multiple offline configurators simultaneously on one workstation computer. ■ If for the Web browser there is a proxy activated, then you might have to enter the computer name "localhost" into the exceptions list (No proxy for ...). ■ During deinstallation of the program StartCenter, the entire installation directory with all its sub-directories is deleted. Backup the necessary offline configurators before uninstalling. 14.2 Setting up TAPI With a TAPI (Telephony Application Programming Interface) you can operate a CTI application (computer telephony integration). Here, the CTI application uses the services of the OpenCom X320 with the help of the TAPI driver installed on a Windows PC. Many telephony functions, such as enquiry, toggling, three-party conference, pickup, call protection and call forwarding can be controlled using appropriate TAPIcompatible software. Requirements You require an active IP network connection between the PC and the communication system. CTI functions can be used only in conjunction with system telephones. You must therefore have configured at least one user for a system telephone. In addition, you require a TAPI 2.1-compatible CTI application, for example the Phone Dialer included in the Windows operating system. Installing the TAPI Driver 1. Call up the start mask from the product CD (see Configuring the PC Software on page 161). 2. Select Software: TAPI Service Provider from the start mask and follow the program instructions. 163

Setting up TAPI
With a TAPI (

nterface) you can operate a CTI
application (

ntegration). Here, the CTI application uses the
services of the OpenCom X320 with the help of the TAPI driver installed on a
Windows PC.
Many telephony functions, such as enquiry, toggling, three-party conference, pick-
up, call protection and call forwarding can be controlled using appropriate TAPI-
compatible software.
Requirements
You require an active IP network connection between the PC and the communi-
cation system. CTI functions can be used only in conjunction with system tele-
phones.
You must therefore have configured at least one user for a system telephone. In
addition, you require a TAPI 2.1-compatible CTI application, for example the
Phone Dialer
included in the Windows operating system.
Installing the TAPI Driver
1.
Call up the start mask from the product CD (see
Configuring the PC Software
on
page 161).
2.
