Features available with NexDial Dialer Window

Screen pops

Whenever a call is ringing your extension, or you have a waiting call, you can configure NexDial to de-ico-
nify (i.e., screen-pop) and focusto the top of your screen. You canthen view the caller ID of the incoming
call before you answer it, and you do not have to search for the application among the various windows you
are using. You can also configure NexDial to screen-pop when you take your telephone off hook as well.
This is set under the Tools->Optionsmenu.
Note The buttons listed belowwill be grayed out unless they are appropriate for the current state of your line.
For example, Dial will be grayed out until you take your phone off-hook,and Hold will be grayed out
until you’ve established a call. NexDialis designed to make calls with thetelephone in the off- hook
condition. Inthe current software release, NexDialdoes not place on-hook calls (the TAPIapplications
do, however. S ee thechapter Installing the NexPath TAPI 2.1 Service Provider starting on page 129
for details on installing TAPI.). NexDial is nota TAPI application.
Also, buttons will change names as appropriate to a line’s state. For example, the Dial button will
change to Transfer if you are on a call, since dialing would make no sense while in themiddle of a call.
