Adoresoftphone is a softphone client which support the Session Initiation Protocol(SIP). It works on all versions of Windows OS (Like 95, 98, 98SE, Millennium, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003). You can download a free demo version which has all basic features and you can make and receive calls. All you have to do is to make a short free registration. Download this phone from here.
Firstly you need to register an user in the sip.conf file. In our case we are registering the user test which we will use for making calls. You have to set also the password(secret) - in our case test.
Type=friend means that this user can make and receive calls. Host=dynamic means that the IP is not static but dynamic through a DHCP server. Allow=all means that the line which this user will use support all audio codecs. Context=test - this shows that this user is working with the extensions in this context of the configuration file extensions.conf.
2) extensions.conf
You can see a screenshot of extensions.conf below. The first line in the context [test] show that if somebody dials the number 102 his call will be connected with the user test through SIP. Next line says that if the conversation is over then Asterisk has to hangup the line.
As you can see in this context there are extensions for the number 104. So, if somebody dials 104 his call will be connected with the user test2 through SIP. You can set this user(test2) to another softphone on another workstation. Now if you dial 104 from your Adoresoftphone with user test you will connect the user test2. Again it`s a good idea to add an extension for a hanging up in order to be sure that when the conversation is over the Asterisk PBX will hangup the line.
For more information about how to make the configurations in the Asterisk's configuration files please read our tutorial about the Configuring IP Phones for use with Asterisk
4. Adoresoftphone configurations
You don`t have to install this SIP softphone. The size of the application is 550KB. It`s only one .exe file. When you start it this window will appear :
In the field SIP/IP Domain, write the IP address of your Asterisk PBX. In our case this is 10.3.3.35. Next field is the Account/Pin field. Here you should write down the username of the user which you have registered in the sip.conf file. We have made this in section 3 - Asterisk PBX configuration. So according to our example we write test. In the field Password write the password(secret) that you have for this user in sip.conf. In our case again this is test
On the picture below you can see how the softphone looks like:
The next step is very important. Click on the Audio Wizard button. You will see a wizard which will helps you to adjust properly your microphone and speakers. Without this settings you won`t be able to use the Adoresoftphone.
Click Next button. On the next window click again the Next button:
Now you have to set what kind of device you are using - USB or for example VIA. In our case this is USB for both - microphone and speakers. In your case it could be different.
Next step is to test whether you hear or not something from your speakers. If you hear a sound then click next. If you don`t hear then go back and change the settings.
Next step - testing the microphone. Say something into it. If the indicator goes into the yellow area - everything is ok and you can go ahead otherwise you have to go back and check your settings for the microphone. If the settings are ok click Next and then Finish
If there is something wrong when you click the last Next button you will see the window below and then you have to go back and check your settings.
Now your Adoresoftphone is ready to be used.
