Using TeleTools

1.    Activate the line device.

2.    Set the etLine.Call.Handle to zero; see Select a Call.
           Example:
                 etLine1.Call.Handle := 0;

3.    Set the etLine.Call.PhoneNumber property to the phone number to be dialed.
           Example:
                 etLine1.Call.PhoneNumber := '19192332232';
           -or-
                 // See Using the Windows Dialing Properties
                 etLine1.Call.PhoneNumber := '+1 (919) 233-2232';

4.    Set the Call Parameters.
           Example:
                 etLine1.Call.Parameters.Defaults := True
           -or-
                 //This will cause the call to be made on the second address of the line device
                 etLine1.Call.Parameters.Defaults := False
                 etLine1.Call.Parameters.AddressID := 1

5.    Call the etLine.Call.Dial method.
           Example:
                 if not etLine1.Call.Active then
                       if etLine1.Call.Dial then
                             //Call is now dialing
                       else
                             //An error occured
           -or-
Set the etLine.Call.Active property to True.
           Example:
                 if not etLine1.Call.Active then
                       begin
                             etLine1.Call.Active := True;
                             if etLine1.Call.Active then
                                   //Call is now dialing
                             else
                                   //An error occured

The following is a basic example that does not utilize call parameters and assumes that the default property values:

etLine1.Call.Handle := 0;

etLine1.Call.PhoneNumber := '555-1212';

etLine1.Call.Dial;
