“Now that I’ve got this new V!CAS—what can I do with it?”
Your V!CAS can serve a number of different purposes—most of them at
the same time. These include (but are not limited to) the following:
• Small PBX—connect up to two analog devices, such as telephones,
fax machines, or modems, to your V!CAS. This setup is especially
useful in small office environments.
You can make internal calls between the two connected telephones
free of charge, make two independent ISDN calls at the same time,
use one ISDN B channel for a phone call while transferring data on
the other, or even use both B channels for data transfer and still be
able to accept incoming calls via the Priority Voice Technology.
• Keypad Facilities—when you dial additional digits during an estab-
lished connection (Suffix Dialling / Nachwahl) from an analog tel-
ephone connected to a POTS port, these digits are not only sent as
DTMF tones, but also as keypad data packets.
You can access special functions on some external PBXs by using
Suffix Dialling (Nachwahl). Please refer to the manual of your PBX
for a description of its special functions.
• Remote TAPI server—you can use computer telephony applications
on your Windows 95 or Windows NT PC to dial for you, to open
up database entries of customers depending on their telephone
number, or as an intelligent answering machine.
For instructions on installing the Remote TAPI please refer to the
BRICKware for Windows online documentation.
Please note that the Remote TAPI is available for both Windows 95
and Windows NT, but not for Windows 3.x.
• Remote CAPI server—many PC communication applications use the
standardized CAPI interface to establish data connections—such
as terminal sessions, T-Online, Eufofiletransfer, or fax—over the
ISDN.
