Since then a lot of bugfixes and improvements have found their way into the new release, Version 1.10. Thanks to all the users who sent us their bug reports and feature ideas, do not stop with your feedback! A special thanks goes to the following people: - Kerstin Glodzinski - Norbert Schulze - Kolja Nowak - Peter Franken - Dirk Schreiber Installation: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The installation is easy. Just unzip the complete distribution archive into the desired destination directory and run INSTALL.CMD. This REXX script will create a CapiTel object on your Desktop. If you are going to create CapiTel objects on your own, do not forget to set the "Working Directory" ! The OS/2 Multimedia Package MMPM/2 is _required_ now, please install it if you want to use CapiTel. CAPI 1.1 is unable to handle more than one applications that listen on the same EAZ. Therefore: If you use CapiTel, make sure it listens to the configured EAZ alone. Configuration: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Go to the Properties-Notebook, which can be found in the General menu. There you will find the following tabs: Defaults: - Generate 16-Bit .WAV Files Mark the checkbox if your soundcard supports this. - Flashing-Window on new Calls If a new incoming call is detected, CapiTel beeps and the frame of its window begins to flash. Click anywhere in the window to turn off the flashing. You can disable this behaviour completely with this checkbox. - Confirm on Call-Deletion Mark the checkbox if you want to be asked before CapiTel deletes a call. - Ignore empty Calls If you mark this checkbox, all calls with a recording time of 0 seconds won't be recognized by CapiTel - Answer Delay Specify the default delay (in seconds) before CapiTel answers a call. - Max. Recording Time Specify the default maximum recording time (in seconds). CapiTel automatically hangs up if a caller speaks and exceeds this limit! - Incoming EAZ Mask Mark the checkboxes of the EAZ's you want to be serviced. If you are using EuroISDN (DSS1), do not forget to map your MSN's to EAZ's. See the manual of your ISDN card for further information. - ISDN Controller ID If you have installed more than one ISDN cards, specify the controller's ID. Usually you just use 0 as ID. - Filename or Pipename for Logging CapiTel can log all calls in a log-file. Specify a filename or a pipename (ie. \PIPE\ZOC), or nothing if you don't want this feature. Ports: - Here you can configure the ports. Double-click on an entry or access the context-menu with your right mouse button. The names of the ports (EAZ0 to EAZ9) can't be edited. Here is info about the other fields: Description: A short description for the port WAV/ALW File: A .WAV or .ALW file which is played whenever a call is detected on the port. You may use * as filename if the default file WELCOME.WAV should be used. Reaction: CapiTel is able to reject a call. Here you define how it should behave: 'Normal' for normal behaviour, 'Busy' to simulate a busy line, 'Refuse' to refuse the call, and 'Unavailable' to simulate an unavailable service. Important: The reaction you define here is only valid for the ISDN card. If another device (ie. an ISDN telephone) is also listening on the EAZ, the caller won't get CapiTel's reaction! There is nothing we can do about this. That's the way ISDN works. Answer Delay: The answer delay (in seconds) for the port. You may use * if the default delay, which can be configured on the General-tab, should be used. Max. Recording Time: The maximum recording time (in seconds) for the port. You may use * here, too. Callers: - Here you can add, edit and delete persons. If someone calls you and the incoming number matches one in this container, the caller specific settings are used. Use the right mouse button to access the context-menu. Here the info about the fields: Name: The callers' names Number: The callers' numbers which are used when identifying incoming calls. You may use the * wildcard at the end of a number (and only there).. ie. 024192090* matches ALL numbers that start with 024192090. WAV/ALW File: A .WAV or .ALW file which is played whenever a call is detected for the caller. You may use * as filename if the default file (Port-specific, otherwise WELCOME.WAV) should be used. Reaction: CapiTel is able to reject a call. Here you define how it should behave: 'Port-Default' for the reaction you have defined for the port (where the incoming call is detected), 'Normal' for normal behaviour, 'Busy' to simulate a busy line, 'Refuse' to refuse the call, and 'Unavailable' to simulate an unavailable service. Important: The reaction you define here is only valid for the ISDN card. If another device (ie. an ISDN telephone) is also listening on the EAZ, the caller won't get CapiTel's reaction! There is nothing we can do about this. That's the way ISDN works. Answer Delay: The answer delay (in seconds) for the caller. You may use * if the default delay (Port-specific, otherwise the delay from the General-tab) should be used. Max. Recording Time: The maximum recording time (in seconds) for the caller. You may use * here, too. Use "Save" to save the new settings, or "Cancel" to discard them. A note about the Port/Caller specific settings: If you specify something for a caller, it takes precedence over the settings you might have defined for a Port. Usage: ~~~~~ The most important part of the CapiTel main window is the container. There you will see all incoming calls. The fields are self explanatory. You may throw colours and fonts into the main window, they will be remembered. If you are using CapiTel with hidden controls, you can access the various menu functions with the popup menu you get when you click with your right mouse button on the container. The window can be moved by dragging the sizing border with the right mouse button pressed. Use the "Record" option to record a new welcome message by calling yourself. A dialog will pop up asking you for a filename. WELCOME.ALW is the default. You can use the created ALW files in the Port and Callers tabs of the Properties-Notebook. Of course you can create a .WAV file yourself (using MMPM's Audio Recorder) and use it directly! If you have any questions, contact us!
