Deutsche Telekom 704PC manual PC Software, General

The PC Software

General

The communications software supplied enables you to use the ISDN data transfer serv- ice, class 3 and 4 fax and e-mail transmission and reception, a mailbox, an answer- phone function and Internet applications on up to four PCs via the USB or one of the Ethernet 10BaseT ports.

You can use network functions on the PCs as soon as the connections are established. You can thus transfer data between the PCs or play games on the various PCs in the network, for instance.

Note

In order to use the network function, the Eumex 704PC LAN software must be installed on every PC in the network. The software is easiest to install before the PC is connected to the Eumex 704PC LAN.*

You can configure the Eumex 704PC LAN, changing the preset values to meet your own requirements. You can do this in three ways: menu-driven configuration via a PC, configuration via a telephone connected to your communications system (see the chapter entitled "Configuration via Telephone" on p. 33), or you can have your Eumex 704PC LAN remotely configured by TeleService for a fee (call 0180 2 55 66 55).

If you attempt to configure the system from a PC while configuration from a con- nected telephone is taking place, a warning will appear on your screen. Similarly, if there is an attempt to configure the system from a connected telephone while config- uration from a PC is taking place, a busy tone will be signalled.

Configuration does not impair operation of the communications system or interrupt calls. The new settings are only active after you have exported the configuration file to the Eumex 704PC LAN .

You can only configure the Eumex 704PC LAN after entering a valid PIN. The default setting on delivery is 0000 (i.e. the digit "zero" four times).

Using the command "Save file as …," you can save a number of different configuration files. You can then export them to the Eumex 704PC LAN as required, thus reconfig- uring the system with a mouse-click.

*Of course you can also install the software when the PC has already been con- nected. If the connection is via USB, the Windows hardware wizard will report finding a new device and prompt you for the driver. Insert the Eumex 704PC LAN CD-ROM in the drive and enter the correct path if necessary.
