Re: CTI Meteor Setup





Paul (and everyone else)

Thanks for the serial config - 1200 has done the trick.

I'm trying to use ACE too (going to play with XAp too) but for the
moment want to get ACE running.  Could you give me a tip as to what
the right config (caller id format etc) that you are using.  I'm
getting stuff through serial now but ACE does not seem to pick it up
and report it yet so I must have something off still.  (Serial port
is configured in ACE and I can see things on the serial port monitor
but the popup window does not come up yet).

Thanks again

Richard
