SET
The pcXset software can accept calls only when both the client computer
and the pcXset software are running. However, voice mail messages are
received and stored on the NBX system even if the pcXset computer is not
running.
The pcXset Help contains instructions for using the application. For
detailed instructions on using the pcXset software, select
Contents
from
the
Help
menu.
The
NBX Business Telephone Guide
has similar instructions, except for the
obvious differences between using the controls of a physical telephone
and the controls of a software program.
