Response Point Assistant
The Microsoft Response Point Assistant software is installed on both the system administrator’s computer and each phone user’s computer. When you check the boxes to install Administrator and all other Response Point components on page 14, Assistant is also installed on your computer. This allows you to access your own personal phone account as a phone user.
You, as system administrator, must add phones to the system and assign extension numbers before anyone can log on to the Assistant software. For more information see System Installation on page 11 and Adding Users on page 19.
Note: If you do not have the Assistant software installed on your computer, see the
AastraLink IP Phone Users Guide for installation instructions.

To start the Assistant software and set your phone preferences, do the following.
