Sometimes it is good to know who is just on the phone within a group and who is free. This function is provided by CTI Client via a monitor bar which can be faded in on a screen edge. See: [Menu > View > Show Monitor Bar] The monitor bar behaves identically to the embedded speed dial buttons. By drag-and-drop the speed dial buttons can be arranged anew and be shifted between monitor bar and embedded short keys. By the the context menu of the speed dial buttons a TAPI device can be assigned to every key whose connecting state is signalled then by LED. So you see immediately whether the other one is free or just calls up. To signalise the state of other phones, you need a central Telephony Server which is connected to the PBX. However, in combination with the xtelsio CTI Server you can also build up a decentralised network.
Decentralised network for call state announcement of other phones
To realise such a decentralised network, a xtelsio CTI Server is be installed on every PC, to enable monitoring of the own TAPI device to the other PCs. Hint: For two clients per PC you can use the Server for free. (Then from view of the PCs on which a xtelsio CTI Server is installed the other PCs are clients.)
Add blocks of speed dial buttons
By default the monitor bar has 12 speed dial buttons. If you need additional speed dial buttons, you can add 4-button-blocks by context menu.
Hints
With the option "View bar always" you can switch between the modes permanently visible and fade in/out. If the Monitor Bar is not opened, the hotkeys for the speed dial buttons are inactive.
