CHAPTER 5. PC-CONTROLLED FUNCTIONS
1. THE ROLES OF PC INTERFACE SOFTWARE
Conversation and broadcasting functions described in Chapters 1 through 4 can only be used by
programming individual line assignments for each facility, station numbering schedules, function details and
other data into the exchange before the system is actually used. (Setting items necessary to enable each
function are shown in the "System pre-programming" in each chapter.) To perform such settings, a personal
computer loaded with dedicated software needs to be connected to the exchange. This dedicated software
enables general control and maintenance settings as well as system programming functions.
Notes
• Some functions to be registered at master stations cannot be enabled without prior system programming.
• This chapter covers only the functions that require system programming.
For their settings, refer to the "AI-900 SETUP SOFTWARE MANUAL."
