PC C ONNECTION AND I NSTALLATION OF THE S OFTWARE
With the PC programmes COMfortel Set and COMfortel Melody included in the extent of sup-
ply the system telephone can be configured according to your special requirements (see also
page 178 ).
The TAPI
41
driver enables TAPI applications via the USB interface of the Auerswald system
telephone (TAPI=Telephony Application Programming Interface). You can control the sys-
tem telephone with different Window applications using the TAPI interface (e.g. a dialler).
Applications for Windows XP and 2000 are supported. The TAPI operation mode will auto-
matically be configured when the corresponding application starts.
With the Auerswald CAPI 2.0 driver you can imitate the functions of an ISDN PC-controller
via the USB interface of the system telephone on the internal S
0
port.
41
During the CAPI driver installation the Auerswald NDIS-WAN driver
41
will additionally be
copied onto your harddisk. You will need these drivers to establish the connection to the
Internet. Your Auerswald system telephone will work like an ISDN network controller in a net-
work of many different computers – the Internet.
Under Windows 98 SE and Me the NDIS-WAN drivers are copied to the harddisk and have
to be installed by you then. Under Windows 2000 and XP this happens automatically.
(NDIS-WAN is a standard for the connection of network controllers to the corresponding pro-
tocols. NDIS = Network-Device-Interface-Specification; WAN = Wide-Area-Networking).
Make a Connection between Telephone/PBX and PC
The connection between telephone/PBX and PC can be realized by four different ways:
1st option
41
: The access to the telephone is done via the USB interface of a system tele-
phone connected to the PBX
42
. The programme is installed on the PC that is connected with
the telephone via USB. (How to connect the COMfortel 2500 to the PC is described on
page 176 .)
2nd option: The access to the telephone is done with an ISDN PC-controller (CAPI 2.0) or
the ISDN PC-controller function of a system telephone via the internal S
0
bus. The pro-
gramme is installed on the PC that is connected to an internal S
0
bus of the PBX via an ISDN
PC-controller/system telephone. (This type of connection of the PC to the PBX is described
in the manual of the PBX.)
3rd option
43
: The programming of the telephone is made via the USB/serial interface of the
PBX. The programme will be installed on the PC that is connected to the USB/serial interface
of the PBX. (This type of connection of the PC to the PBX is described in the manual of the
PBX.)
4th option
44
: The access to the telephone is made via the IP network. The programme is
installed on the PC that is connected to the Ethernet interface of the PBX. (For this option the
connection of the PC to the PBX is described in the manual of the PBX.)
