- DISCONTINUED -

AbleComm has promoted and supported do-it-yourself installation of Panasonic phone systems since 1991, but Panasonic didn't offer "end-user" software until 2004.

The Panasonic KX-A281 Phone System Manager is the first software that Panasonic has offered for the KX-TD816 and KX-TD1232 phone systems, that is available to the public. It's much easier to use than Panasonic's "ugly old DOS" program, and provides important additional features at a reasonable price.

It has a well-designed Windows graphical user interface. Convenient point-and-click operation lets you use a PC to easily manage your KX-TD system. It's an excellent tool for day-to-day system management, that can save substantial time and money. Phone System Manager is important for business use, and nice to have for home use.

At the click of a mouse, you can instantly make changes in the following areas:

Extensions: Assign a user's name and extension number to each system telephone.

Speed Dials: Assign one-touch buttons to the most frequently dialed numbers

Flexible Keys: Point and click to assign the most-often-used features to each phone's flexible buttons. This programming can then be copied to other phones, or each phone can be customized according to the individual user's needs.

Ringing: Program individual phones to ring a specific number of times before sending the call to voice mail or to another phone. Other options include "delayed ring" or "no ring."

►DOZENS OF OTHER PROGRAMMING FUNCTIONS are available, under password control. You can handle voicemail, phantom extensions, DID, toll restriction, Class of Service, do backup and restore, and MUCH MORE. Programming that used to take an eternity with a phone's touchtone pad, can be done in seconds with a PC!◄

In addition to programming and backup/restore, the KX-A281 Phone System Manager also includes other functions:

• You can print professional-looking labels for each telephone's flexible buttons to indicate extension numbers, speed dial, and more.
• You can use the built-in Call Accounting program to analyze and report on phone system activity including line usage, lost calls and busy incoming call periods; and make appropriate adjustments in equipment, phone company services, and staff.
• The software can also be used to track calls made for individual clients and projects, so you can generate monthly billing statements.
• The label-printing function is not as versatile as our Desi software, and the call accounting is not as complete as Panalog, but it might be good enough for you. It's best to think of Phone System Manager as extremely good phone system software, with pretty good printing and accounting software as bonuses.

Everyone strives to get the most out of technology in a cost-effective manner. Phone System Manager puts control of telephone system features and costs in YOUR hands.

• YOU can control YOUR system when and how YOU want to, saving service visit costs and providing YOUR business with flexibility to operate effectively.
• The ability to monitor and manage telecom costs is increasingly important. Phone System Manager allows YOU to itemize and print out phone call information, which can be used to reconcile your phone bill.
