Capi Support In Voiceguide

[ktruk]

I understand that VG supports the CAPI ISDN standard and that cards that conform to CAPI can be used with VG "as-is" and they should work similarly to a TAPI compatible card with the TAPI VG.

 

What I want to know is if there are any specific limitations to CAPI, ie: will CAPI work *just* like TAPI in voiceguide or are there any "gotchas" in the system?

 

Do you recommend any specific CAPI hardware?

 

I am looking to install a small-scale ISDN pilot with say 2 or 4 ISDN lines only. A 30 line dialogic card cannot be justified at this time so I am looking at just using a low-cost CAPI card. Specifically, I need access to the DNIS (Calling Line ID), so as a minimum, I need this function supported (as well as Caller-ID).

 

Thanks.

To use CAPI cards you need to install the ComISDN driver. Otherwise it's exactly the same as if using a voice modem - with the added benefit of DNIS being available.
