IBM CALLPATH DIRECTTALK/2 PRODUCTIVITY AIDS
Version 1.06
Included on these diskettes are several "productivity aids" for use with your
CallPath DirectTalk/2 system. These are functions, user actions, and tools
that may make life a little easier for you in your day-to-day use of the
system. However, you should be aware that these aids are not a formal part of
the CallPath DirectTalk/2 program and are not supported by IBM. The
productivity aids are provided on an "AS-IS" BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE AND NO INFRINGEMENTS WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. The individual
descriptions that follow tell you how to use each one.
The contents of the diskettes are for use with DirectTalk/2 Versions 2.0, 2.01,
and 2.1 only (except where noted). They will not work with any earlier versions
of DirectTalk/2.
To save room, most of the utilities have been stored using PKZIP. A copy of
PKUNZIP2.EXE is provided on each diskette. Use it to unpack the utility prior
to use.
New and changed programs since Version 1.05 are identified with ****.
Diskette 1 Contents
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
KFSDT2V2 DirectTalk/2 User Actions
KFSDT2V2 is a collection of several different User Actions for use
in the development of DirectTalk/2 applications. A complete list of
what is included and installation instructions can be found in
README.DOC in the KFSDT2V2 directory.
**** Pad_Variable updated. New Convert_Date and Do_Date_Math
actions.
DTIMPORT DirectTalk/2 Database Loader
DTIMPORT is a DirectTalk/2 user requester that will read information
from an ASCII flat file and load the information into a DirectTalk/2
database. This program can be run from any OS/2 command line or from
a REXX program. The function provided is similar to the existing
database load and merge features provided by the DirectTalk/2 Voice
Application Developer with several enhancements. See README.DOC in
the DTIMPORT directory for installation instructions.
EXPORT DirectTalk/2 Database Data Exporter
EXPORT is a DirectTalk/2 user requester that will export the contents
of any DirectTalk/2 database to an ASCII flat file. This ASCII flat
file can be viewed with any editor or used by many other programs,
including Lotus 1-2-3 or OS/2 REXX. The ASCII file created by
DirectTalk/2 can be used to turn around and load a DirectTalk/2
database using the Load feature in the Voice Application Developer or
the DTIMPORT program. You can select whether to export database keys,
records, or both. Output data can be appended to an existing file or
overwrite the file as requested. See README.DOC in the EXPORT
directory for installation instructions.
COMPRESS DirectTalk/2 Database Compress Program
COMPRESS is a DirectTalk/2 user requester that will compress any
DirectTalk/2 database. When DirectTalk/2 deletes data from a database,
the data is not physically removed from the file until the database is
compressed. This program mimics the function provided by the Compress
feature in the Voice Application Developer. Compressing a database
will remove this previously deleted information and reduce the file
size. This program will back up a database file before starting the
compression. You may specify wild cards to have the program compress
more that one database with a single invocation of the program.
There are two methods available to compress a database:
1) sequential read/write - This is the same method used by the Compress
feature in the Voice Application Developer. Each record is read from
the original database and written to the new database in ASCII
search order based on the record key ie. 0001, 0002, 0003, etc.
2) optimum read/write - This method provides for optimum balancing of
the binary tree used to search the database when it is read. With
this method, all of the keys are read into memory. Each record is
read and written starting with the median key and working out to the
first (lowest) and last (highest) key, alternating back and forth.
For example, for a database with 5 records keyed sequentially 1 to
5, the records will be written in the following order: 3, 2, 4, 1,
5. (Using the sequential method, they would be written as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.) The optimum method is the default method used by
COMPRESS.
See README.DOC in the COMPRESS directory for installation
instructions.
DT2EDIT DirectTalk/2 Database Editor
The DirectTalk/2 Database Editor is a full featured editor for any
DirectTalk/2 database. It enhances and adds to the existing support for
databases that is included with the Voice Application Developer.
DT2EDIT is an OS/2 Presentation Manager program. It will edit a
database on a DirectTalk/2 system that is running on a different
system, if DirectTalk/2 is configured as a node allowing remote
connections.
DT2EDIT has a number of features that makes it an extremely useful
tool if you have any type of DirectTalk/2 databases that you need to
maintain. With DT2EDIT, you may:
o View a list of all databases, along with pertinent information
o View and edit data in either ASCII or binary format (Application
files may be viewed only)
o Easily locate the first and last record in any database
o Add new records or update existing records
o Create new databases
o Delete old, unwanted databases
o Export data from a database to an ASCII flat file
o Import data to a database from an ASCII flat file
o Copy record data to and from the OS/2 clipboard
o Compress the database to purge previously deleted records and to
recover disk space
o Display statistics on any database
o Delete records from a database
o Copy records from one database to another
o Purge the contents of a database
o Print a record or an entire database
DT2EDIT can be configured to fit your needs. It can remember your
configuration setup along with other pertinent information from one
session to the next in its own INI file. See README.DOC in the
DT2EDIT directory for installation instructions.
**** DT2EDIT updated to Version 2.73 which includes several new
features and some bug fixes.
VCIMPEXP DirectTalk/2 Voice Segment Import/Export Utilities
This is a set of programs that will convert voice data between the
DirectTalk/2 voice segment format and Dialogic's .VOX format. See
README.DOC in the VCIMPEXP directory for installation and usage
instructions.
DT2UTILS DirectTalk/2 Dialogic Adapter Utilities
This is a set of utility programs that provide additional support
with Dialogic hardware adapters. Included are:
o SVU - Set Volume Utility
Allows you to set the outgoing message volume on a system wide
basis.
o HSU - Hook State Utility
Allows you to set the hook state on all phone lines. Comes with
documentation on how to force the hook state to a known position
at all times, including system boot and DirectTalk/2 startup.
o D2HW - DirectTalk/2 Hardware Configuration
Displays as much information as possible about the Dialogic
adapters, including settings, in a DirectTalk/2 system.
See the *.DOC files in the DT2UTILS directory for installation
instructions and usage help.
**** Please note these utilities are for DirectTalk/2 2.0 and
2.01 only. A future release of the Productivity Aids should
add support for DirectTalk/2 2.1.
CTLCREAT DirectTalk/2 Application Control File Editor
This program will automatically generate a set of control files
from a template control file. It will automatically change the
value of the system variable, voice_line, to a different line
number. It also has an extended editing feature to allow you
to make other changes to the generated control files. See README.DOC
in the CTLCREAT directory for installation.
**** CTLCREAT updated to Version 3.1 which includes bug fixes
and adds support for DirectTalk/2 2.1.
DT2TRACE DirectTalk/2 Internal Tracing User's Guide

in the Version 2.1 Problem Solving Guide, GC33-1548.
DT2-WAV **** DirectTalk/2 Voice Segment to Wav File Programs
DT2-WAV includes several user actions to export a voice segment to a
WAV format audio file. There are also standalone programs to convert
WAV between WAV format files and Dialogic VOX format files. The VCIMPEXP
tool (included here) may be used to import/export VOX format files to
and from DirectTalk/2 voice databases.

DT2VRTST DirectTalk/2 Voice Recognition Accuracy Test Application
DT2VRTST is a special DirectTalk/2 application, VRTST, that can be
used to test discrete numeric voice recognition with a number of
callers by collecting and scoring their spoken utterences. Data is
collected and saved in DirectTalk/2 databases. A Rexx program is
provided which will produce a report on the data collected and
calculate the system voice recognition accuracy for individual
caller, caller sex, and vocabulary. See README.DOC in the DT2VRTST
directory for installation and usage instructions.
