Ok sorry to sound stupid, let me figure this out...

When you log in with Hyper Term, what do you get? Does telrad's PBX systems just use a terminal emulation? That way you don't have to use any software at all?

If CTRL-C doesn't break it, then it's locking up with XP, meaning that something's not going right with the interaction there, so you're going to have to find a solution. Have you tried contacting Telrad? I know that seems simple... and there isn't a windows release of their software?

Again, if all the telrads do is use terminal emulation, then why can't you use hyper terminal by itself?

Lucent/Avaya products do... Nortel as well on some of their switches.

DTMF
The softwares 3.10, 5.10, 6.10 are windows compliant. and should run with XP. When I call in again I will ask Tech Support of any changes that need to be made.

SS, I'm trying to do it with 7.0 for a couple of 400 systems,

AvayaNovice,
The Telrad has to use the software to talk to the system, each release is different so you have to use the correct ver. for the system you are trying to connect with , if it doesn't see or talk with the software then it's a no go.
It's a DOS based program that you load to your hard drive and it then explodes all the files, you then open the DKEYBX file and dial in directly to the in-system modem or dial in to the voice mail and transfer your self to the modem then you have to enter the file name for that system a it will open up the programming session where you can change , back up, load new program ect. ect.
So you see it has to be able to talk to the system with the software.
Damn that was a mouth full

Added: I have all my customers ver. and files on my laptops so it's not any kind of emergency, I would just like to get them all on my XP (it would be really handy) Maybe I should just go ahead and load another OS (win98 sec.) to it and that will let me run them all. I have space up the (you know what)I've got two drives C: 60GB and F: has 20GB so that isn't an issue.

O yea AvayaNovice, the new software is all window based and very nice to work with. I think 7.23 and above.

Interesting, I get what you're saying now.

So that's weird, the newer versions aren't backwards compatible with other switches?

Interesting...

Yeah I guess you're going to have to set up a Dual Boot. You can use XP to do it, or you can buy/steal a third party boot loader.

Kinda sucks that you have to do that...

I would say use a DOS emulator, but the IRQ and port settings compatibility on those is screwy.
