1. Product Description
-----------------------
Phone Plus is a full featured telephone dialer with optional Caller ID and
speakerphone support.  Its features include multiple phone books, up to
four numbers per entry, automatic redial of busy numbers, and call logging.
The Caller ID lets you know who is calling before you answer.  An icon in
the system tray lets you know that calls were logged while you were away
from the computer.  Sound options allow playing a different .wav file for
priority callers.  With Pager Notification you can be automatically paged
when someone calls your home or office.  Place and receive calls using the
full featured speakerphone.  Phone Plus is TAPI compliant and can share
your modem with other TAPI programs.

-----------------------
2. System Requirements
-----------------------
- 80386 required, 486 or higher recommended
- Microsoft(r) Windows(r) 95
- VGA or Super-VGA monitor
- 2 MB (minimum) of free disk space
- A mouse or equivalent pointing device

In addition, the Caller ID and Speakerphone features require:
- Microsoft(r) Unimodem V universal modem driver
- A TAPI compliant modem with Caller ID or speakerphone functionality
- Caller ID service from your phone company

Phone Plus will run on Windows NT, however the version of Unimodem that
works with Windows NT does not support Caller ID or a speakerphone.

3. Installation
----------------
If you are using a previous version of Phone Plus, do not uninstall it.
This would remove the configuration settings.  Simply install this new
version over the old one.

First, extract the files to a temporary directory. You can delete this
directory when setup has completed.  Run Setup.exe and follow the
instructions.  Use one of these methods to run Setup.exe:

- Select Run from the Taskbar Start menu, type the full path of the
  temporary directory followed by a backslash and the name of the
  installation program (e.g., C:\TEMP\SETUP.EXE).  Press the ENTER key.
- Use My Computer or the Explorer to find the Setup.exe file.  Double-
  click the icon to run it.

Setup only adds one icon to your Start button, so you may want to add it
to an existing folder rather than create a new folder.  The setup program
will give you this option.

You can uninstall Phone Plus by double-clicking on "Add/Remove Programs"
in the control panel, selecting Phone Plus in the list, and clicking the
"Add/Remove" button.  After uninstalling you may have to manually remove
the Phone Plus directory and any files left in it since the uninstall does
not remove any data files that were created.

-------------------
4. Troubleshooting
-------------------
If you are using a modem with Caller ID or Speakerphone capabilities and
have problems using these features, be sure to read the help topic
"Troubleshooting" in the chapter "About TAPI".
