TAPI Compatibility
Description
The system has Telephony Applications Programming Interface (TAPI) capability. TAPI capability
provides:
● Reduced TAPI Feature Set (see the Supported TAPI Commands chart below).
● Caller ID data to the PC for data base lookups and screen pops (see the Caller ID Data chart
below).
● Telephone control (off-hook, on-hook and dialing).
The CTA or CTU adapter provides an interface that allows the user personalized control of the tele-
phone system from a desktop or laptop PC when used in conjunction with a TAPI-compliant appli-
cation. The telephone system and PC are connected by installing an adapter on the telephone
keyset, allowing the PC user to access sophisticated communications services via the telephone
lines.

● Aspire keyset telephone containing an RS-232-C CTA Adapter (P/N 0890058) / CTU Adapter
