You Run Express Manager from DOS on your PC. You can connect

remotely through a modem connection that allows you to
communicate to Express Messenger using your telephone system.
Express Manager requires the following hardware:

minimum of 2 MB of disk space and 640 KB of memory (RAM).
•
VGA monitor (color or monochrome).

Connecting your PC Directly to the Express Messenger Card

Plug one end of the custom RS-232 cable into an unused COM port on
the PC.
2.
Plug the other end of the cable into the Express Messenger card
connector. You must open the PBX door to connect the cable.
The custom RS-232 cable is a PC-to-PC cable with 9-pin female DB9
connectors on each end. Wires between pines 1 and 4 and between 2
