The PB-100 hardware and software provides inexpensive PC to Telephony applications on an open source
basis and makes it easy to create your own application
solutions using standard programming languages such
as Microsoft’s Visual Basic®. Applications such as mes-
sage announcement centers, voice dialers and
auto attendants may easily be created to your
custom specifications.
The PB-100 accepts simple ASCII serial commands to seize the phone line, dial or decode
DTMF Touch Tones, watch for busy signal,
detect loop status, perform timed hook-switch flashes or hang-up the line. If your PC is equipped
with a sound card, the audio ports can also be coupled to the phone line through the PB-100 for
voice recording or playing announcements using standard file formats such as .wav files.
The PB-100 hardware features a serial port interface, an “AUDIO IN” and “AUDIO OUT” port, an
analog C.O. line interface and an analog phone port. Several pre-written applications are included and can be installed for use. In
addition, all available source code is
provided to allow changes or
improvements to existing programs.
