Profile

A profile consists of a list of optional settings for users. These settings are loaded and applied by te estos ProCall. The settings, defined in the profile, overrule the corresponding Registry settings from HKEY_CURRENT_USER in the client. If a setting is preset in the profile, this setting is write protected in the estos ProCall.

A profile can be assigned to every user. If no profile is assigned to a user, the standard profile with the name "Default" is used. This also applies if the assigned profile for the user was deleted.

The settings of the profiles offers a similar functionality as the administrative templates of the Active Directory® group guideline. The settings are applied with the following priority:

  1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - Group guideline
  2. HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Profile
  3. HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Group guideline
  4. HKEY_CURRENT_USER – User settings

Profile name
Every profile must have an unique name. A description of the profile can be optionally entered.

General
You can make individual adjustments to contact details and conversation windows for the selected profile. To configure the fields, start the editor via the link.

Custom Tabs
In this section, addresses of websites can be configured which are shown in the estos ProCall as tabs in the main window. This allows you to integrate web based applications in estos ProCall.

Provide a title each which names the tab and URL (e.g. http://intranet) which is displayed.

Some web applications imply a certain (newer) Internet Explorer® version. You may set the needed emulation mode in the registry for this purpose. With the following registry entry estos ProCall will use the Internet Explorer® 9 compatible mode:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\(Wow6432Node)\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION\ECtiClient.exe = [DWORD] = 9000

In order to use the Internet Explorer® 11 emulation mode set this DWORD value to 11000. More information and adaptabilities for embedded Internet Explorer® controls may be found on the Microsoft® web pages.

If you select "Exchange Gateway", both your incoming and outgoing fax messages are displayed by Outlook® as emails or By choosing WebService, both incoming and outgoing faxes will be displayed, recorded and sent through custom tab pages in estos ProCall.
