Overview and Installation
AltiGen’s MaxMobile Communicator application, installed on a G1 phone
based on Google’s Android platform, makes the phone a fully capable
office phone extension and serves as a “desktop” call control client,
allowing you to access, configure, and perform most of your company's
PBX functions directly from the graphical user interface in MaxMobile
Communicator. This includes call handling, call forwarding, extension
monitoring, conferencing, conversation recording, directory and contact
lookup and dial, and contact editing. In addition MaxMobile
Communicator lets you save Favorites.
MaxMobile Communicator runs on any mobile phone device that is using
the Android operating system. When you log in, it connects your Android
phone to your company's MAXCS as a native extension of the system.
If you have a desktop phone in the office, then when your MaxMobile
Communicator is logged out, the calls made to the extension are routed to
your desktop phone. As soon as your MaxMobile Communicator is logged
in, the calls are routed to your Android phone.
