BT Callscape 100 SDK
Back in the dim and distant history of Black Marble we were involved in the development of an SDK for the BT Callscape 100, a serial port based Computer Telephony Intergration product. This SDK allowed Windows developers to make use of the CTI functionality of this BT product from within any application development environment that supported Active-X controls.
The Callscape 100 has long since been discontinued by BT, but it seems that there are some people still using them for a variety of specialist purposes (but this must be getting harder as the product was designed for Window's 16bit and a serial port, neither too common on current PCs!)
In January of 2002 BT gave permission for the source code of our SDK and all the supporting information we had to be made available free to any interested parties. This information used to be on our main web site, but was removed during a recent update.
Since it's removal a suprising number of the queries have rolled in from Callscape developers, asking where it has gone. So we have placed the files back on the web site. So the new Callscape page is http://www.blackmarble.co.uk/Callscape.aspx where you will be able to find the following items:
and before you ask, this is all the information we have. The original 16bit Callscape hardware and sofware was produced by a company in Taiwan who provided to us little more than a few state diagrams and protocol formats. This information is in the source code.
So I hope someone finds this useful, maybe this blog can act as a discussion forum for any interested parties?
