Operation

The 44-Series EM/24 operates the same as previous models.

TAPI Support

CPC-AII/B offers full support for the Panasonic Telephony Applications Processing Interface (TAPI). TAPI is a Windows™ application which allows a PC to be connected to a telephone extension and used to control incoming and outgoing calls through that extension. Typical PC applications that might be used with TAPI include Contact Managers and Personal Organizers.

The Panasonic TAPI product (VB-43720) provides the necessary interface between a DBS and a PC-based TAPI application. This product consists of a TAPI Adapter and the Panasonic TAPI Service Provider (SP) software which resides on the PC. The TAPI Adapter provides the physical connection between a PC, a DBS extension, and the DBS itself. Its purpose is to intercept telephone and call control signaling messages from the DBS and telephone extension and then forward a copy of those messages to the Service Provider software on the PC. After interpreting the messages, the Service Provider software passes them on to the TAPI application.

No special programming of the DBS is required for TAPI. For detailed information, see the TAPI Installation Guide, Part Number 575X00201, Section 570.
