Main window of kClient application consists of few parts:
The appearance of main window depends on application status. States of buttons depend on it too,
so this view shows what is a state. The main window makes possible to have an access
to both main features of kClient softwae : big conferences on the KKO card and
connections feture via CSTA. Following, there are some typical views of kClient main window,
according to some typical cases of working:
User unlogged / user logged to KKO / user logged to CSTA : on Supervisor level:
In Supervisor level mode additional information is available. This is logged
users list with IP addresses, names levels and assocciated conferences. Five panels
with important information about five conferences are visible on the bottom ot the window.
There are number of parties in duplex, simplex mode and called into given conference.
If the conference is busy, name and source of owner is visible too.
Additionally for Supervisor level there are listing window instead of graphics.
This is trace of communication from/to the KKO card.
User unlogged / user logged to KKO / user logged to CSTA : on Dispatcher level:
In Dispatcher none additional information is visible.
It is possible to change application background graphics in : Settings->Main menu->Configuration.
Examples of graphics there are available, it is possible to switch on own graphics too. However you have to
know that for proper running of kClient software there are required two files : "normal"-displayed in online mode
(ownname.jpg) and "offline"-displayed in off-line mode (ownname_bkgnd.jpg).
So, the view of application shows information what is current working state (logged/unlogged) and
what is logging level. On Supervisor level the graphics is switched off and command list appears in this place.
This is possible to get full or short listing of communication (between kCLient software and the KKO card).
Normally, the listing is short. However it is possible to switch on Full log file mode
(Settings->Configuration->Full log file) in order to investigate the transmission in failure cases.
On Administrator and Dispatched levels the graphics is switched on and it is the same picture.
Additionally level of user (and the version ov software) is visible in upper left corner of the window.
