I've been looking into the one bad thing about * which is there's no

you have rows of buttons each representing an extension. You press
the button of the extension you want to transfer the call to, and
it's done.

There's the beginnig of GUI version but it's going to eat resources
for running X which can become less than desirable, besides it's
not very competitive having to use a mouse to handle calls. Too
slow.

So my idea is to have a text window. We can run at a higher res than
25x80 and squeeze a fair number of extensions onto it.

The idea is to either use the extension number to access an
extension or for less than 100 station system, use a two digit
number for each person. This way there's minimum typing for the
operator. This have enough space to easily display busy, hold,
vmail etc. as the status of each extension.

This way with a flatscreen monitor, or dual for bigger systems we
can even run the console away from the server and use minimum
bandwidth.

The other status screen would be a voice mail screen where you can
A) see the status of voicemail. Lines in use etc. B) change the
name and features associated with voice mail.

FOP works for us, no need for X:

If you need to avoid using a mouse, you can use the Polycom attendant
console instead:

point_ip_attendant_console.html


We recently released Maestro Control Panel (beta):

http://www.datatrakpos.com/pos/datatalk/maestro.aspx

Its mouse driven, but easy to use. We have a few clients using it for their
secretaries with good success. You can minimize it to the system tray and it'll
popup when flagged numbers come in or click on it to do things like "get so and
so on the phone for me" type of functions. It uses the manager api for its
functionality so its pretty flexible.

We're also working on a cross platform (Win/Linux) sister product designed to
run on small touch screens systems. The idea is that it will run on a small
embedded linux box (maybe fastened to the underneath of the desk) using a small
8" touch screen.

Nothing to show yet unfortunately. You can check back into the message board
every so often for news of it when its released.

What is the default username/password. In the Maestro forum's it only says
it's hardcoded, but doesn't say the actual username/password.
Best Regards,

Guilherme,

The username is "leebo" and the password is "123". You can see it by going to:

Admin > Users > Edit Users

and selecting my record Smile ==> Lee Jenkins.

Are you having trouble entering the software? If so, it's a good chance you may
be running Vista or a nicely locked down version of XP. The original installer
saved Maestro's (firebirdsql) database file to the (\program files\Maestro
Control Panel) directory which was a mistake on my part. Windows may be
refusing to let you connect to the database because of that.

I have changed the installer to save these files to CSIDL_COMMON_DOCUMENTS
(Users\All Users) folder so there is no longer any problems accessing the
database, assuming you have that problem.

Either way, I recommend you download it again directly from here:
http://www.datatrakpos.com/pos/datatalk/downloads/maestro_setup.zip

That's the same link on the webpage, if you don't feel like navigating back.

Please post any further support questions to the message board if its not too
much trouble:
http://www.leebo.dreamhosters.com/pbxbb/

Thanks for downloading and sorry about the inconvenience.

Warm Regards,

Lee
