Technical data

7. Client/Server interface imond
– Start with Windows: Specify here if the client should start automatically with
system start. Provide necessary start-parameters in the field Parameter.
– Fetch News from fli4l.de: Should news from fli4l’s homepage be fetched and dis-
played by imonc? Then headlines are shown in the status bar. A new page News is
displayed to show the complete messages.
– Logfile for Connections: The file name here is used to save connection lists locally
on the imonc’s system.
– TimeOut for router to answer: How long should we wait for an answer from the
router before assuming that the connection has failed.
– Language: Pick the language for imoncs to use.
– Confirm Router Commands: If activated all commands influencing the router gen-
erally have to be confirmed, i.e. Reboot, Hangup . . .
– Hang up even when traffic: No information should be displayed when the connection
is closed and there is still traffic on the line.
– Automatic Connection to the router: Should we try to reconnect to the router in
case of lost connections (i.e. when rebooting the router).
– Minimize Window To System Tray: Should imonc minimize to system tray instead
of terminating itself when clicking the Exit button.
• Proxy Settings: Define a proxy for imonc’s http-queries here. It will be used for fetching
news.
– Activate Proxy-support for Http-queries: Should we use a proxy
∗ Address: Address of the proxy server
∗ Port: Port number of the proxy server (default: 8080)
• TrayIcon: Set the colors of the tray icon next to the clock to your own needs. In addition
you can specify that the actual dialmode will set the background color of the tray icon.
• Calls: The position of the call notification window will be saved in the registry in order
to allow to set a fixed position for the window. Simlpy drag the window to the desired
position.
– Update: Set here in what way imonc will be informed about new calls. There are
three possibilities. The first is querying the telmond service on the router in regular
time intervals. A second is evaluating the syslog messages. This variant is preferred
to the first - of course, the imon’s syslog client has to be enabled. If imonc is used
with a routed eisfair system the third possibility is to use the Capi2Text package
for call signaling.
– Delete Leading Zeros (Phone Boxes): Phone boxes often use an additional Zero to
prefix the caller’s number. This option will suppress the digit.
– Own Area Code: Save your own area code here. If a call with the same area code
is received it will get suppressed when displaying.
– Telephone Book: Here, the file can be specified, in which the local Phone book is
saved for resolving of the phone number. If the file does not exist, it is created by
the program.
