Options

Use of options

Options determine the behaviour of the CTI interface. Options are activated before initialising the interface with NStartClient.

Program options are stored internally by the interface, there is no need for you to save these values yourself. Upon installation, the interface retrieves the initial values from the file FCTIINST.INI. If this file is not present, default settings are used. You do not normally require the options unless your program allows them to be changed. If several CTI programs use the interface on the same computer, each program should make its standard settings explicitly. Most options, with the exception of the internal extension, can also be set using the Setup Configurator, which writes the FCTIINST.INI file.

Prefix

The options functions start with the prefix “O”.
