Chapter 8: Device Manager

Operation: Applicability of Device Manager

To what devices does Device Manager pertain? The Device Manager software applies to FaxFinders, CallFinders, and to the MA100 Multi-Access Dial-Up Ethernet Link unit. One of Device Manager’s main functions, phonebook synchronization, does not apply fully to the MA100 Multi-Access device because it has no phonebook as such, but rather has a “Users List” instead. For the MA100, the Device Manager’s Synchronize Phonebooks command synchronizes this users list among all MA100 units connected to the system.

Access to Commands

The commands of the Device Manager software are accessible in the program’s pulldown Edit menu, and through a right-click menu that becomes available when a particular device (FaxFinder, CallFinder, or Multi-Access unit) is selected in the program’s main screen.
