2. PbX PANEL for Windows Description

PbX PANEL for Windows is a PC software product compatible with the Windows environment (98,XP,..). The software displays complete information on the 2N® - OMEGA Lite PBX operation on a PC screen using a network (Ethernet, e.g.) or serial link. The program is intended for all 2N ® - OMEGA Lite models.

PbX PANEL displays:

-the status of each subscriber line;

-the status of each CO line;

-the DAY/NIGHT status for each group;

-the status of switches;

-the occupation status of parking places;

-on which bus a call is made;

-current calls;

-incoming ringing of CO lines;

-records on made calls (accounting lines);

-information on the PBX;

-etc.

The desktop of windows in the Panel can be saved into a file. Since more desktops can be saved, each user can use a desktop of windows and icons that he or she wishes.

PbX PANEL can be recommended to telephone operators, managers and workplaces with high telephone communication loads. Since the program is developed for Windows, the operator can work on the PC background under the Windows OS (letter writing, e.g.) while the program is communicating with the PBX. The software also helps upload the PBX accounting data into a selected file continuously.

3. PbX PANEL Menus
