58 PC Call Server
58.1 Introduction
The PC Call Server is a Windows service, connected to
one or more configured network controllers. It handles
all operational requests from PC Call Station Clients and/
or a PC Telephone Interface Client. The PC Call Server is
configured by the PC Call Server Configuration Client,
which for security reasons runs on the same computer as
the PC Call Server. The PC Call Server does not have a
user interface of its own.
58.2 Requirements
The PC Call Server can run on any PC that meets the
following minimum requirements:
• Operating system:
Microsoft® Windows XP with Service Pack 1 or
Microsoft® Windows Vista or
Microsoft® Windows 7
• Network connection: 100 base-T
• 1 GB RAM

Note
After installation, the PC Call Server will
automatically be registered to the Windows
Firewall to allow incoming and outgoing network
traffic. If the PC uses a different firewall than the
standard Windows firewall, the PC Call Server
must be manually registered to that firewall as
exception to avoid that the firewall blocks the
network traffic without notice. Blocked network
traffic causes the application to malfunction.
