All About TFLX...
Programming Tools: The TFLX Task Icons
ANSWER PHONE...
The ANSWER PHONE handles the task of recognizing an inbound call and responding
to the call in a number of ways, which you have control over. The ANSWER PHONE
has options such as the Toll Saver which let you know when messages are waiting.
CODE...
This Task Icon works specifically with the TONE INPUT Task Icon to create
a "lock and key" to a Script branch. You can enter a specific number or code
(including numbers and/or text as found on the telephone keypad), or you can
use a variable.
DIAL OUT...
Gives the Script the ability to call out or send out a number over the telephone.
You may use a specific phone number or you can use a variable number. The
DIAL OUT Task Icon can detect and respond to specific phone signals, such
as VOICE, RING, BUSY and OTHER. This Task Icon builds Script branches for
each type of signal. Simply continue Scripting to handle each condition encountered...
FAX ON DEMAND...
The FAX ON DEMAND Task Icon can be activated with each TFLX system. Depending
on the system you own, the Task Icon may be able to send fax only during the
same call or it may be able to accept a caller's fax number for fax back.
GLOBAL CLOCK...
With the GLOBAL CLOCK Task Icon, Scripts can execute timed events using virtually
any criteria you choose: every few seconds to once a year to when a specific
action takes place.
GOTO/GOSUB...
GOTO and GOSUB are essential programming abilities which enable a Script to
instantly jump to another part of the Script. The GOTO redirects the Script
activity, while the GOSUB enables the Script to leap to a subroutine, then
return when the subroutine task is complete. Additional abilities included
with the GOTO/GOSUB Task Icon are: RETURN and POP.
HANGUP PHONE...
Simply terminates the call. A one-task Task Icon, there are no other parameters
to change or customize.
IF/THEN...
This simple but powerful Task Icon enables the Script to make data comparisons
and provide branches for True and False match conditions. One piece of data
at a time can be compared to an =, <, > condition, or in combination: <=,
=>, <> (not equal to).
KEYBOARD INPUT...
This Task Icon gives the Script the ability to accept keyboard input from
the keyboard attached to the TFLX-controlled Macintosh. With this Task Icon
you have instant access to database files, variables and other text-based
data.
LOCK/UNLOCK..
The LOCK/UNLOCK Task Icon gives DUET the ability to block access to a Task
Icon or a branch of Scripting for temporary or indefinite period of time.
This lock-out can be deactivated from a remote location.
MATH...
The MATH Task Icon is a simple equation editor. Using the +, -, /, *, = and
DIV and MOD (divide and modulus)
MISC. COMMANDS...
A simple Task Icon... designed to accept several Script Commands not handled
by the other Task Icons. Opening the MISC. COMMANDS, a Commands menu appears.
Selecting a Command in the menu will insert the command into the Task Icon's
edit box. A short list of Commands includes...
-
Pickup (phone)
-
Flash
-
Wait
-
DTMF Time
-
Text style, font, mode and size
-
Delete file
-
SerialOpen and Close
-
SerialSend and Receive
-
CopyFile
-
Rename File
-
Right$, Left$ and Mid$
...as well as several Commands that allow you to change system-wide parameters on-the-fly, from a remote location.
MODEM...
The MODEM Task Icon gives TFLX the ability to launch a modem application.
MONITOR EVENT...
Allows the Script to track the activation of specific Task Icons during Script
operation. This information is stored into a text file for later review.
MONITOR MICROPHONE...
This unique Task Icon enables TFLX to act as a remote monitoring device...
when a microphone is attached to the TFLX II unit. The MONITOR MICROPHONE
give you the ability to actually listen to the anything that can be picked
up at the microphone's location... even from a remote telephone!
PLAYBACK...
The PLAYBACK Task Icon lets you and your callers retrieve voice mail messages.
Options in the Task Icon enable you to play one or more voice mailboxes on
demand. Playback options enable you to replay, skip to the next message, return
to the previous message, skip to the first or last message, delete specific
messages or delete all messages.
RECORD AND SAVE...
The RECORD AND SAVE Task Icon enables a Script to record mailbox messages
and sound files and save them to disk. In addition to the basic ability to
record sound files, this Task Icon contains several options to control the
length of the recording and essential message editing options for the caller,
such as review, replace, append, save and cancel message.
SCREEN DISPLAY...
The SCREEN DISPLAY enables a Script to display graphic pictures on the monitor
while a Script is running. Use in conjunction with a SCREEN TEXT Task Icon,
you can create very informative on-screen displays.
SCREEN TEXT...
The SCREEN TEXT Task Icon enables the Script to print text on the monitor
during Script operation. A simple text editor, the SCREEN TEXT contains controls
that allow you to align and place text precisely on the computer screen.
TONE INPUT...
Accepts touchtone input from the remote device. TONE INPUT works directly
with CODE Task Icons to create multiple branching leads for the Script. This
Task Icon gives you an input time-out option, the ability to use a "terminator"
key and the ability to control how many digits it will accept. The input can
be saved to a variable for permanent or temporary use.
VARIABLES...
A special "global" Task Icon which enables you to define and use database
and USER variables and arrays in a Script. Besides adding variables to the
Script, the VARIABLES Task Icon has the ability to globally change and replace
uses of variables throughout a Script.
