For example, a user at PC (1) selects the "Dial" function from the TAPI-compliant
Personal Information Manager (PIM). The operating system routes this request over
the LAN (2) to the main Telephony Server (3), which translates and forwards the
request using Panasonic's CT-API Protocal over a serial connection (4) to the DBS
576 (5). The DBS 576 then places the call from the user's telephone (6). The entire
process is completed quickly and automatically once invoked by the user.
