Using the Windows 95/98 or NT
Driver and SLTALink Manager with
SLTA-10 NSI Mode
This chapter describes the SLTALink Manager software, which
establishes and configures local and remote links from the host PC to
the SLTA-10 Adapter in NSI mode. A local link requires a direct
cable connection from the host PC to the SLTA-10. A remote link
requires a pair of modems: one attached to the SLTA-10 Adapter and
the other attached to the host PC. The SLTALink Manager software
controls a remote SLTA-10 via a pair of modems through Windows’
Telephony Application Programming Interface (TAPI) services under
Windows 95/98 and NT 4.0 or later.
The SLTALink Manager determines when a standard driver open
call in a host application requires dialing and handles these cases.
Thus, the host application does not need to know if the network
services interface is a local SLTA-10 or a remote SLTA-10 Adapter.
NOTE:
Remote SLTA-10 Adapters cannot be used with Windows NT 3.51 because
Windows NT 3.51 does not include the 32-bit TAPI services used by the SLTALink
I
Manager software.
Skip this Chapter if you are using the SLTA-10 MIP mode.
