MultiVOIP GSM Program Menu Items
After the MultiVOIP GSM program is installed on the PC, it can be launched from the Programs group of the
Windows Start menu ( Start | Programs | MultiVOIP GSM x.xx | … ). In this section, we describe the software
functions available on this menu.
Several basic software functions are accessible from the MultiVOIP GSM software menu, as shown below.
MultiVOIP GSM Program Menu
Menu Selection Description
Configuration Select this to enter the Configuration program where values for IP, telephony,
and other parameters are set.
Configuration Port Setup Select this to access the COM Port Setup screen of the MultiVOIP GSM
Configuration program.
Date and Time Setup Select this for access to set calendar/clock used for call logging.
Download ATTable Select this to download the current set of SIP protocols. This is generally only
needed in conjunction with a firmware update.
Download Factory Defaults Select this to return the configuration parameters to the original factory values.
Download User Defaults To be used after a full set of parameter values, values specified by the user,
have been saved (using Save Setup). This command loads the saved user
defaults into the MultiVOIP GSM.
Set Password Select this to create a password for access to the MultiVOIP GSM software
programs (Program group commands, Windows interface, web browser
interface, & FTP server). Only the FTP Server function requires a password for
access. The FTP Server function also requires that a username be set along with
the password.
Uninstall Select this to uninstall the MultiVOIP GSM software (most, but not all
components are removed from computer when this command is used).
Upgrade Software Loads firmware and settings from the controller PC to the MultiVOIP GSM unit.
User can choose whether to load Factory Default Settings or Current
Configuration settings.
“Downloading” here refers to transferring program files from the PC to the nonvolatile “flash” memory of the
MultiVOIP GSM. Such transfers are made via the PC’s serial port. This can be understood as a “download” from
the perspective of the MultiVOIP GSM unit.
When new versions of the MultiVOIP GSM software become available, they will be posted on Multi-Tech’s
website. Although transferring updated program files from the Multi-Tech website to the user’s PC can
generally be considered a download (from the perspective of the PC), this type of download cannot be initiated
from the MultiVOIP GSM software’s Program menu command set.
