MacroPhone Description
|
MacroPhone is a network based application which lets you centralize
ISDN based tasks like caller id display, telephone answering machine,
fax (sending and receiving), call redirection or call notification
(via email or SMS).
All ISDN processing happens on your server's ISDN hardware (CAPI
based ISDN board or TA). The client computers (user workstations)
do not require ISDN hardware, but redirect their requests to the
server instead. Thus MacroPhone allows your users to perform ISDN
task (fax sending, checking their voice mail, etc.) even if their
computers are not connected to the ISDN system.
For interaction with other applications, the client computers (user
workstations) have a fax printer driver which will perform fax sending
through the server on everything that is printed there from other
applications.
MacroPhone is available in German and English and automatically
switches to the corresponding language, depending on the location
settings in the Windows Control Panel.
Requirements: TCP/IP networking between client and server. CAPI
based ISDN hardware (ISDN board or terminal adapter with CAPI2032.DLL)
for the computer where the MacroPhone server service is running.
