IP Softphone 2050 overview

The IP Softphone 2050 is a business telephone application that you can

use to make and take calls over your computer. Using a headset or

handset connected to your PC, you control calls with the click of the

mouse pointer, from your PC keyboard, or from the USB Audio Adapter.

Designed to work with IP-based phone systems, the IP Softphone 2050

provides Voice over IP (VoIP) services using a telephony server and your

Local Area Network (LAN) or Wide Area Network (WAN).

The server that supports your IP Softphone 2050 determines the features

you can access, such as Call Conference, Call Transfer, and

Call Forward.

The IP Softphone 2050 supports the following features:

• Twelve user-defined feature keys: six Programmable Line

(DN)/Feature Keys (self-labeled) and six lines/features accessed by

pressing the shift key

• Four soft keys that provide access to a maximum of 10 features

• Four-line display

• Directory capabilities stored locally on your PC or linked to external

directories, such as Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP),

Microsoft Outlook, and Windows Address Book (WAB) contact

management software

• CS 1000 Directory features (Personal Directory, Redial List, Callers

List, and Password Administration) stored on the application server

for systems running CS 1000 Release 4.0 or 4.5 software

Call Control window

The IP Softphone 2050 Call Control window displays the line keys,

your telephone calls. You also use this window to access both your Local

Directory and CS 1000 Directory features (Personal Directory, Redial List,

Callers List, Application Server Administration, and Password

Administration).

For more information about the Call Control window, consult the IP

Softphone 2050 User Guide

Local Directory window

Use the Local Directory window to create, manage, and use a telephone

directory stored on your local computer and to access external

directories, such as LDAP, Outlook, and WAB.

For more information about the Local Directory window, consult the IP

Softphone 2050 User Guide

Settings window

Use the Settings window—a series of dialog boxes—to set up the various

IP Softphone 2050 features.

For more information about the Settings window, consult the IP Softphone

2050 User Guide.

System tray icon and menu

You can right-click the IP Softphone 2050 system tray icon—located at

the right side of the Windows taskbar at the bottom of your screen—to

make and manage calls.

IP Softphone 2050 overview

i2050.exe application

The i2050.exe application lets the IP Softphone 2050 communicate with

the server. It launches when you start the IP Softphone 2050 but remains

hidden in the background. To verify that the i2050.exe is running, open

the Windows Task Manager. To view the i2050.exe process, select

Processes. The process appears as long as the IP Softphone 2050 icon

appears in the system tray.

Display

Both IP Softphone 2050 skins (1140 and compact skins) support two

display areas (shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2).

Figure 1: IP Softphone 2050—1140 skin display

Figure 2: IP Softphone 2050—compact skin display

The primary display area provides up to four lines of operating

information, such as Caller ID, server status, and so on.

The four soft keys provide access to server-definable features, such as

Transfer, Conference, and so on.
