tions” (CSTA, phase 3 based on ECMA-269 and ECMA-285 (BER) /ECMA-
323 (XML), phase 2 based on ECMA-217 and ECMA-218) external programs
and applications can access services of the Forum 523/524 communications
system via network connection. The CSTA interface provides an effective and
universal connection option for Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) applica-
tions, for example:
●
CTI functions for corded and cordless system terminals as well as SIP
terminals
●
Display paging and alarm messages on terminals
●
Remote activation using terminals, e. g. function and status keys for device
or building control.
