4.1 Overview Aastra 800 Service
The Aastra 800 communications system is realized by several programs which are
running in the background. These programs are controlled by a windows service
named “Aastra 800 Supervisor Service”.
The windows service is active after the PC system is started, even if no user is
logged in. Moreover, the windows service is executed using a specific user name –
which for example prevents a standard user from unauthorized access.
Shortly after starting the Windows operating system, the Aastra 800 communica-
tions system is initialized as follows:
The operating system starts the “Aastra 800 Supervisor Service” service. Now
the respective service program is running continuously in the background. The
service program should not be terminated normally.
The “Aastra 800 Supervisor Service” in turn starts two sub-processes: the
Aastra 800 main application (“Aastra800.exe”) with normal execution priority
and the RTP service program (“Aastra800_rtp.exe”) with a high execution pri-
ority.
