1 Introduction
FRITZ!X USB is a combined ISDN-Controller and PBX (Private
Branch Exchange) in one. This intelligent combination allows
you to connect your computer and four analog devices to
ISDN. This means you can continue using your existing
analog equipment, such as telephones, answering machines
and fax machines, while taking advantage of ISDN features.
You can use both tone-dialing (touch tone) and pulse-dialing
terminal equipment.
Thanks to the built-in ISDN-Controller in FRITZ!X USB and the
FRITZ! communications software connected computers can
use ISDN applications such as file transfer, telefax (Group 3),
answering machine functions, PC telephony, and Internet
services.
FRITZ!X USB works with a USB interface. USB stands for
Universal Serial Bus. The USB is a serial bus which equips
your computer with a new level of convenience and
operating potential. Just plug FRITZ!X USB into the USB port
of your computer and install the software. FRITZ!X USB is
connected to the USB port of your computer with a
standardized plug.
The configuration of the integrated ISDN PBX can be
performed either using the configuration software FRITZ!X, or
from a touch-tone (DTMF: Dual-Tone MultiFrequency dialing)
telephone.
This manual describes the configuration of the PBX using
the FRITZ!X configuration software. For information about
how to configure FRITZ!X USB by telephone, see the PDF file
TELEPHONE.PDF in the SOFTWARE\INFO\<ENG> folder on the
FRITZ!X USB-CD.
In some countries you have to activate certain country-specific
settings. For details, see the PDF file COUNTRY_ SETTINGS.PDF
in the SOFWARE\INFO\<ENG> folder on the FRITZ!X USB CD.
