12 S-ICX (International) issued October 2000 S-ICX-50-200
PC-based software, called PCAS.
This popular software package runs in a Windows 95 environment and makes programming and
maintaining phone systems easy and fun. With PC Customized Tool, multiple phone systems can be
maintained in separate databases on the computer. The phone system parameters are grouped
together in windows so you can see the current settings all on the same page. To set a parameter,
simply click a button, or select from a multiple-choice field, or type in an entry. It even has context-
sensitive help if you get stuck (press F1 and a help screen will pop-up, explaining the field you’re in).
You can use PC Customized Tool to “build” a phone system, then download it into the phone system’s
memory all at once. Or you can perform individual, “live” changes to phone system memory from the
computer. It can also be used for backing up and restoring phone system databases.
❣ Programming from a remote location.
Again, using PCAS, the S-ICX can be programmed from a remote location, using an offsite computer
terminal to call into the phone system. You can perform “live” changes in this manner as well as
downloads/uploads (for backup/restoring).
