| + | Visible fields are used for typing necessary data for connecting application with PBX. First field should contain PBX internal number of '''''PhoneCTI.voip''''' user. Next field is a password set by system administrator. After first connection with PBX, user will be asked for changing the password for only user-known one. Password should contain 4-16 characters, excluding ; and ~. Tha password can be also changed manually, by selecting the '''Change password''' link. | ||
| + | Server address field is used for typing PBX address. Proper filling all above fields will result in connecting to PBX, and start of data synchronization. After succesfull operation user will be promped with '''Connection succesfull''' text. If any data will be filled not properly, user will see text '''Login failed'''. | ||

| − | + | Call generating via PhoneCTI.voip application depends on PC and app configuration and used devices. When VoIP feature is turned on (Settings/Connection/VoIP settings/Use application in the VoIP mode) function buttons (answer, disconnect, hold, dial number) refers to built-in VoIP client. Call are carried out by PC's microphone and speaker or (as recommended) by wired or wireless headset (etc Bluetooth). | |
| − | + | When VoIP feature is turned off, it behaves as a normal PhoneCTI application, which is controlling phone paired with PhoneCTI. | |
| + | It is up to user to choose the best way for him, to use the application (with icons, shortcuts or context menu). | ||
| + | Remember, that using the application with various types of phone is different. CTS system phones will be controlled by PhoneCTI (answering calls, disconnecting them, etc.), while analog or VoIP phones will only dial selected numbers, but handset needs to be picked up manually. | ||

Introduction
Slican's PhoneCTI.voip application contains all features off standard app version and allows for integartion phone with PC used by PBX subscriber. It is a PC application, designed for Windows operating system, which combines the ability to control the phone, access to PBX phonebook, subscribers call history, recorded calls, chat, SMS messages and other subscribers statuses, and addiditionally conversations with in-built SIP client. Application is not standard SIP softphone, and cannot be logged to ohter PBXes. To log the app and make calls with it, access to PC and PBX in the same network is required.
Application can be paired with all kind of phones connected to PBX: CTS system phones, analog, and VoIP phones. In the newest version, PhoneCTI can work as standalone voice communicator, installed on PC. Additional features relate mainly to analog phones users, becuse it grants them priviledges not accessible via desk phone.
PhoneCTI.voip allows user to access phonebooks stored in PBX memmory. They can be viewed and edited via system phone and PhoneCTI users. Applied changes in phonebook will be visible instantly on other users applications/phones. PhoneCTI.voip gives the possibility to use internal chat. All CTI users connnected to the same or linked PBX, can communicate with each other with chat feature.
Another big feature is integration of the PBX phonebook with users PC and PhoneCTI application. PhoneCTI.voip application uses phonebooks stored in PBX memmory, wich can edit it both from application and CTS system phone. Entered change is instantly visible. Chat feature can be attractive for companies that do not allow, due to security measures, to use third-party communicator applications.
