4.0.2.2 - 2023-02-27 improved screen saver detection (and therefore clearing) by not trusting Windows when it says no screen saver is running manually remove disconnected network clients from runtime real-time client list to avoid overflow, corrupted network messages, and possible call looping log some network send errors to Activity Log 4.0.2.1 - 2021-06-02 added setting for ignoring Whozz Calling? phantom calls (Options, Devices, Whozz Calling?, Options) added debug info for rare problem where program won't minimize when 'X' is clicked 4.0.2.0 - 2021-05-11 Help, Junk topic: added note about not working from clients, so maybe try ACIDMU instead limit check update frequency in case of error added note to Options|Devices|Skype and help for same that Skype support is only through Skype version 7 4.0.0.15 - 2021-04-12 copy version 3 WebRoot files while importing V3 settings uninstall version 3 during install if it's installed (confirm first) respect /SILENT, /VERYSILENT, and /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES command-line switches during install for non-error messages eliminated some unneeded log messages respect /SILENT and /VERYSILENT command-line switches during uninstall eliminated one spurious log warning 4.0.0.14 - 2021-04-02 added "Help" button to "Duplicate Calls", "Missed Calls", and "Call Frequency by Phone Number" windows (on View menu) added more fields to WebRoot/calls_detailed.html updated help to include version 4 changes 4.0.0.13 - 2021-03-25 when an automatic version check determines that a new version is available but the program is minimized, don't show the window until the program is restored when starting Ascendis Caller ID at the end of the installer, run it as the original user instead of a possibly different (admin) user required for installation added user name to Technical Support Report 4.0.0.12 - 2021-03-23 limit to 16 network server send-message threads (this is based on the hardware and would be less for most systems) 4.0.0.11 - 2021-03-20 try to fix problem with one computer checking for updates too often 4.0.0.10 - 2021-03-19 changed main window class name to differentiate from ACID3 4.0.0.9 - 2021-03-12 added '4' to desktop icon name hide strikeout and underline effects controls in the html notification window font window hide font size controls in the large/adjustable notification window font window default to bold fonts for large/adjustable and HTML notification windows Options window: hide color controls in font window notification windows: when changing transparency, limit it to avoid user not being able to see the window when running trial version with a sufficiently newer version, reset trial period HTML notification window: enabled "Standard Layouts" and "Custom Layouts" the first time the context menu is displayed 4.0.0.8 - 2021-03-04 removed spurious log messages about deleting temporary table fixed excessive CPU usage/freezing when checking automatically (unattended) for new versions improved behavior when restoring databases with errors, as can happen when installing a new version 4.0.0.7 - 2021-03-03 version check window: support closing by pressing escape key, improved progress bar responsiveness, don't save settings unless they're changed and different than defaults, added 'Default' button to settings version check settings: use different default settings for beta version (include beta versions + check more frequently) 4.0.0.6 - 2021-03-02 added new version checker — by default this happens once a week but it can be disabled or configured (Help menu, "Check for Updates") 4.0.0.5 - 2021-02-19 added 'Apply' button to notification-only windows' font window show warning about ignored font features when showing notification-only windows' font window added right-click command to notification-only windows to show or hide buttons (this is a shortcut for Options|Notifications|'Show..buttons' checkbox) all notification-only windows: added ability to copy street, mailing address, and all displayed data to clipboard (right-click on window for menu) small notification window: added ability to change color, font & transparency (right-click on window for menu) don't try to determine whether non-Lite Whozz Calling? devices can hangup — this can (no longer?) be done accurately and if program is terminated during configuration device could conceivably be left in block-all-calls mode moved Rebuild Calls Report and Repair Database to new Tools menu added Junk/Unjunk buttons to notification-only windows as appropriate when buttons are enabled on them — Junk can be used while the call is in progress to block calls from new callers as they come in allow showing buttons on all three notification-only window types Options window: show a warning when changing the font, especially the implications with respect to separately specified fonts (display panel, incoming & outgoing calls) use the configured program font for the display panel if the former is configured and the latter is not fixed problem with tall, narrow, empty error message windows when using very large fonts (large fonts didn't trigger errors, but if an error message was shown, the text was missing) fixed problem where choosing a very large font in the Options window would not use the font effectively in the main window until Ascendis Caller ID was restarted fixed problems showing an already running instance by starting a new instance (usually by double-clicking an icon on the desktop or selecting it from the Start menu) when showing a window, make sure it's big enough to be visible cleanup better when Windows is shutting down or restarting added local IP address(es) to Technical Support Report when showing windows, keep them on the screen (this should only be a factor when someone moves a window offscreen, or the screen resolution or monitors are changed) fixed problem where Options|Notification|"Bring main window to top" could result in main window remaining on top until minimized or program is restarted added command to restore the initial database (Tools menu) try more things to convince Windows to bring app window to top when so configured (NOTE: Windows does not want applications to do this so it may not be possible to make it work all the time) 4.0.0.4 - 2020-11-18 Disabled case sensitivity for UID lookups so we can use the indexes! This significantly sped up junkability checking and should improve other Locates. use locations table info in addition to contact location (prefer contact location fields but use locations table field when contact field is empty) added junk button and context menu items (Calls and Calls Report). These support junking by number and by name when appropriate. To access junking by name from the junk button, right-click it. Note that common CID names like "Out of Area", "Private", etc cannot be junked by name this way. fixed strangeness with status bar right-click menu use flat toolbar icons 4.0.0.3 - 2020-10-19 internally, notice changes to locations within 30 seconds (was 5 minutes) Contacts window: added "O" accelerator for clicking the "OK" button added context menu command to delete calls reports within program fixed problem where new reports didn't appear on 'Load Calls Report' menu on some computers until the program was restarted 4.0.0.2 - 2020-10-15 support most contact fields in contacts web pages (see Webroot\contacts_detailed.html) support most call fields in calls web pages (see Webroot\calls_detailed.html) 4.0.0.1 - 2020-10-14 support wildcards in locations for CountryCode, AreaCode, and Prefix: '_' (underscore) means any single character '%' (percent sign) means zero or more characters 4.0.0.0 - 2020-10-12 uninstaller: delete specific version's registry data (when told to delete all data) uninstaller: only delete specific version's data folder (when told to delete all data) added 'Company' column for calls and contacts to web pages added 'ActionName' to CallInfo for advanced actions Calls Report: added commands to save and load call reports to the context menu Calls Report: make predefined date ranges relative to the current date (use "Custom" to select absolute dates) added "Open call window for each call" notification option 3.1.0.15 - 2020-01-09 when deluxe Whozz Calling units don't provide an end call message, estimate the number of rings based on the duration — this is only useful when calls are received in rapid succession 3.1.0.14 - 2020-01-08 added three fields to device setting info appearing in TSRs handle two Whozz Calling start messages without intervening end message nor time to timeout (this fixes recorded start time and duration when calls come in very quickly) 3.1.0.13 - 2020-01-07 added command to Calls list context menu (access with right-click on Calls list) to only show new items in the calls list (you can change the "new" status on the same menu) 3.1.0.12 - 2019-04-14 Contacts window: deleting numbers or patterns: enable Del key for deleting + don't confirm if global confirm deletes is off + keep position Contacts tab: when deleting contact, keep position Actions tab: when deleting action, keep position 3.1.0.11 - 2018-11-08 remove expired and missing items from web cache automatically (expired items were not used previously, but they weren't deleted until ACID was restarted) if web cache folder is deleted while we're running, recreate it automatically gracefully handle missing cached web server files 3.1.0.10 - 2018-06-18 Options window, Speech page: disable controls when sound is disabled and show explanation Options window, Speech page: added setting for speech audio output device include 32-bit or 64-bit in Windows version in Technical Support Report report Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 10, and Windows Server 2016 in Technical Support Report 3.1.0.9 - 2018-01-02 fixed problem where display panel might be partially or mostly obscured on systems with multiple monitors when the monitors aren't exactly side-by-side 3.1.0.8 - 2017-12-08 fixed problems when deleting a call in progress 3.1.0.7 - 2017-07-20 in the Calls list, include up to 128 characters and multiple lines (combined) in the Address column, if shown 3.1.0.6 - 2017-05-01 corrected PerformAction examples in help fixed potential problem searching for Whozz Calling? Ethernet devices in Options window when none are currently being monitored — the problem resulted in an empty list for specifying the Whozz Calling? connection (serial or Ethernet) and/or neverending scanning and/or preventing Ascendis Caller ID from terminating cleanly debug versions: when no debug log path is specified, try using the temp folder if the log file can't be written to the application folder debug versions: when debugging is enabled, warn and disable logging to file if the log file can't be written to 3.1.0.5 - 2017-02-23 fixed problem where an outgoing phone call would erase the name for a non-contact phone number (probably only happened with Whozz Calling? devices that track outgoing calls) Rebuild Phones command: added functionality to fix previously blanked names (to use this command, press and hold the Control and Shift keys while selecting "Rebuild Phones" on the "File" menu. You can release the keys once the "Rebuilding Phones" progress window appears.) fixed exceptions when restoring or repairing a database that refers to devices that are unknown or are no longer known 3.1.0.4 - 2017-02-10 fixed possible incorrect data in CallInfo when action runs when call ends 3.1.0.3 - 2017-01-12 when call ends, update call and contact information in CallInfo accessible from actions so latest information is available for actions when call ends (among other things, this means call end actions can access notes made during the call if changes are saved before the call ends) 3.1.0.2 - 2016-11-17 added Call Frequency report (on View menu) 3.1.0.1 - 2016-06-23 added Test Action button to item toolbar 3.0.0.44 - (never released) fixed occasional problem remembering HTML notification window size under Windows 8.1 3.0.0.43 - 2016-01-25 show hourglass cursor when marking calls as new or read removed 'mark as new' and 'mark as read' commands from calls report — make these changes in the calls tab fixed possible exception when checking for automatic backup time when Windows has been running longer than 49 days 3.0.0.42 - 2015-06-25 support dialing when using modem directly (i.e., not in TAPI mode) 3.0.0.41 - 2015-05-20 replaced FindComet.exe with non-.NET version to avoid error message on some Windows XP machines updated Google search URLs (https is now required, apparently) make sure script editor is at least partly on screen when opened 3.0.0.40 - 2015-03-02 fixed error messages on startup on systems with non-colon time separator fixed problem saving changes in Options window when devices were enabled before activating as a client fixed looking up area code from Contact list 3.0.0.39 - 2015-02-05 attempted fix for composite devices sometimes being handled as separate devices added debug messages around instance data handling to help find cause of "already open in another user session" messages 3.0.0.38 - 2015-01-16 increased default number of automatic backups to keep from 3 to 9 Call window: can now delete labels by pressing "Delete" key while label combo box is dropped down and an item is highlighted (previously this would only delete the label if it was currently selected) Contact window: can now delete labels (on Extra tab) by pressing "Delete" key while label combo box is dropped down and an item is highlighted Contact window: can now sort labels (on Extra tab) Calls For window: open call window when a call is double-clicked 3.0.0.37 - 2014-12-09 added duplicate calls report (accessible by View->Duplicate Calls, or by right-clicking on Calls grid and selecting "Delete Duplicate Calls...") added fake outgoing call command made fake Out-of-Area calls incoming fixed licensing problem with composite devices where a component device might be disabled attempted fix for problem downloading Whozz Calling? calls one customer saw 3.0.0.36 - 2014-10-15 added CallBeganDate, CallBeganTime, CallEndedDate, and CallEndedTime columns to Calls Report 3.0.0.35 - 2014-10-07 enabled CTRL+A shortcut for selecting all text in Call window Notes when Notes has focus trap exceptions when retrieving local IP address to fix exception one user reported when reopening Whozz Calling?

It only works when another phone device that supports call waiting ID is connected in parallel with the modem. In our tests, it works if the phone in use ("off-hook") supports call waiting ID, but not if a non-call waiting ID phone is being used. It is apparently not sufficient for a call waiting ID phone to be plugged into the phone line — it must also be in use ("off-hook").) remember last contact selected when assigning number to existing contact fixed cosmetic issues in Call Notes window, especially with custom fonts fixed cosmetic issue in Auto Import Contacts window 3.0.0.26 - 2014-03-03 close network connections before suspending and open on resume to fix potential hang problem when network connection is not available on resume fixed problem when changing composite device description improved composite device call processing when call information is not received from devices in close proximity in time fixed problem where call end was sometimes reported as before call start 3.0.0.25 - 2014-02-07 added contact notes, contact extra, and contact custom fields to calls list and calls report (In order to see these fields in the field customization drop down list, you may have to reset the grid by right-clicking on it and choosing "Reset Grid". This will remove all grid column customizations!) 3.0.0.24 - 2013-12-13 added "Tell EZLynx" action improved error handling when database can't be opened at startup added "Tell Time Matters" action added DDE_Send.exe when dialing from the contact list, now dials the phone number for the selected contact instead of the first phone number in the database for the contact 3.0.0.23 - 2013-08-13 added help for secure web server and web access editor per-folder secure web access: check access file in parent folder(s) if username is not found in local access file web access editor: minor cosmetic changes web access editor: fixed bug where changes to a user were not detected for purposes of confirming cancel web access editor: fixed bug where backup was deleted after cancel confirmation prompt if cancel was canceled Options window: minor cosmetic changes to Web/TiVo Server page 3.0.0.22 - 2013-08-08 support more date formats when importing CSV calls sped up CSV call importing ~36% Options window, Mail tab: don't display password added per-folder web server authentication added secure web server install: backup files in webroot folder before overwriting 3.0.0.21 - 2013-07-16 fixed last 1 or 2 digits of long phone numbers (> 12 digits) on Whozz Calling? devices appearing in name (note that Whozz Calling? devices only support up to 14 digits for phone number and additional digits will still appear in name) 3.0.0.20 - 2013-07-10 fixed exception when deleting all contacts and importing contacts support more date formats when importing new contacts 3.0.0.19 - 2013-07-09 3.0.0.18 - 2013-04-02 added more speech error descriptions 3.0.0.17 - 2013-04-01 attempted fix for reported speech exception ($8004503A) for one Windows 8 64-bit user encode control characters in XML export files 3.0.0.16 - 2013-02-24 fixed potential problem preventing startup on Windows Server 2012 64-bit (and other versions of Windows?) made ###NUMBER### a synonym for ###DISPLAYNUMBER### in contact blocks in web server pages 3.0.0.15 - 2013-01-10 fixed problem accessing modems directly in Windows 8 3.0.0.14 - 2012-12-13 added call waiting ID support for Zoom 3095 in direct mode (aka 'not TAPI') To use: in the Options window, Devices page, Modems and TAPI sub page, get properties on the modem and enable "Enable call waiting id". Notes: When a call waiting call is detected, the action for the caller runs but Hangup and PhoneSound commands are blocked since Ascendis Caller ID doesn't know which party is on the line. Since the modem doesn't distinguish between normal and call waiting ID messages, Ascendis Caller ID assumes a caller ID message without a preceding ring is a call waiting ID message. In some countries, this could prevent Hangup and PhoneSound from ever working. Call waiting id detection may vary with the phone being used when the call is detected — this is a hardware limitation. fixed deleting call from Calls Report using navigator toolbar 3.0.0.13 - 2012-12-07 fixed word wrap in Contact window's notes memo 3.0.0.12 - 2012-10-29 if no devices are open, periodically reopen configured devices — fixes problem when a modem is not available when we start but becomes available later fixed problem with automatic backups if system goes to sleep during backup default network status window to status page since log is disabled by default reconnect to network servers when waking from sleep — if configured to poll first, this will download calls since going to sleep fixed deleting calls from navigator toolbar 3.0.0.11 - 2012-10-02 fixed potential duplicate calls when using Whozz Calling? Ethernet Link models on some networks turned off "Process selection" for calls report since it doesn't work with this type of grid changed "Buy Now" links to go to the web pricing page, so user must choose the number of phone lines desired 3.0.0.10 - 2012-06-21 don't show date-based filter items in calls report duration filter drop down fixed problem filtering calls report on duration added "Fake Out of Area Call" command (available with other fake call commands on status bar context menu) when refreshing the contact list, retain the focused row and, if the number of records hasn't changed, the selections 3.0.0.9 - 2012-06-01 support "RING L...,N..." messages (from NetMod ISDN modem) 3.0.0.8 - 2012-05-30 don't assert when an empty string is passed to Speak command 3.0.0.7 - 2012-05-26 sped up CSV contact importing 150 times for some CSV files handle more date formats when importing CSV contacts added port and authentication mode to send mail log message use ascendis.com internally instead of www.ascendis.com activation fix for some machines 3.0.0.6 - 2012-03-05 log phone number assignments that occur because of pattern matching to Activity Log when name AND number patterns are specified for a single contact pattern, both patterns must match for the phone number to be assigned (previously either match caused the phone number to be assigned) 3.0.0.5 - 2012-03-02 fixed problem where some calls received on non-Lite Whozz Calling? devices could be processed as two calls (wait longer for device's response to "V" command; when "V" response and detail messages are received from device, we know it's not Lite) — problem was seen on a Whozz Calling? 4 Ethernet Link 3.0.0.4 - 2012-02-09 don't perform automatic backup if calls are in progress don't configure Whozz Calling? Ethernet devices if multiple devices are found and we're not configured to talk to one on the local subnet (this fixes a problem we've seen where multiple Whozz Calling? Ethernet devices cause a device configuration error which causes one device to hang up on all calls) Options window: allow re-scanning for network Whozz Calling? devices (choose appropriate option in Whozz Calling? port combo box) Options window: scan serial ports and network Whozz Calling? devices in background to speed opening window support choosing a single Whozz Calling? Ethernet Link device (only works for devices on same subnet) when importing calls via CSV when RawNumber field is not specified, use any provided name field fixed problem introduced in 3.0.0.3 which caused automatic backups to be performed too frequently 3.0.0.3 - 2012-01-19 Repair Modem: fixed problem where wrong modem settings might be used if a modem with the same modem id was previously recognized by Ascendis Caller ID Repair Modem: fixed problem repairing TAPI responses on some 64-bit machines trap and report additional types of automatic backup failure Repair Modem: don't check Windows' TAPI settings and responses if the modem is configured for direct mode Repair Modem: don't change modem access mode to TAPI if the modem is configured for direct mode 3.0.0.2 - 2011-12-29 reopen devices after repairing modem if we're not restarting immediately disable all devices once activated as client fixed problem with Skype version 5 (which no longer installs Skype4COM) 3.0.0.1 - 2011-12-05 fixed activation problem with computers with varying max CPU clock speed 2.3.0.49 - 2011-10-13 Repair Database command now optimizes too installs empty and initial database CIDDB files in data folder too for ease of access increased default main window width enable new TAPI devices if activation allows and "Tell me about new devices" is enabled fixed problem importing version 1 database added commands to import version 1 settings and version 2 settings and database when importing version 1 database, default to installed database folder; check folder before importing; backup existing database first and restore on failure 2.3.0.48 - 2011-09-22 tweaked Network Status window, including increasing status bar height fixed potential exception on some machines when printing call notes fixed rare exception on some machines when using the Run command in actions 2.3.0.47 - 2011-09-16 fixed bug where downloading calls from Whozz Calling? memory used computer time if "prefer computer time" was enabled (memory calls should always use device time) fixed problem where minimizing display panel all the way and then exiting Ascendis Caller ID prevented the display panel from being restored fixed potential problem when rotating Line Monitor logs in debug builds Find Actions window: fixed searching (broken with font changes in 2.3.0.31) and accelerator for Text field (broken with font changes in 2.3.0.35) fixed possible date format issue in Find Calls window "Add Locations from Contacts" command: include country code updated help 2.3.0.46 - 2011-09-09 updated help tweaked Edit Call window to allow slightly larger fonts fixed some font size issues in Edit Location window corrected help on contacts CSV files; added simple sample 2.3.0.45 - 2011-09-02 don't let user select a Ring action that hangs up warn user when choosing a Ring action other than "Ring" or "Do Nothing" reduced default font size for HTML notification window increased default size of Line Monitor window clarified logged message when raw CID data includes other info updated help 2.3.0.44 - 2011-08-25 added automatic backups (on by default; see File -> "Auto Backup Database..." for configuration) 2.3.0.43 - 2011-08-24 improved handling of unexpected TAPI error codes trap TAPI error when getting system's country code and default to "1" 2.3.0.42 - 2011-08-21 2.3.0.41 - 2011-08-19 2.3.0.40 - 2011-08-19 more error codes for activation failure 2.3.0.39 - 2011-08-18 new actions now use {SpeakName} instead of {Name} in default speak text "Empty Database.ciddb" is now literally empty — no records exist in any of the lists now installs "Initial Database.ciddb" into Ascendis Caller ID Program Files folder — this contains the database as it appears on first install added "Speak Name" and "Speak Name and Number" actions (these will only appear for new installations; if you want to add these simple actions to an existing installation, import "Standard Actions.xml" from the Program Files folder using File -> Import -> Actions) the "Default" action now speaks the phone number only if the caller is not a contact and the number is not the same as the name (this change will only appear for new installations) when a contact is deleted, recompute the name fields for the phone numbers assigned to the contact from the raw caller id name (as would happen when the call is first received) — fixes problem with names "sticking" to a phone number after a contact is deleted fixed problem with TAPI modem on some systems where script (and speaking) could be triggered twice fixed race condition with scripts that could cause logged errors updated distributed Locations table to version 2.4 (no content changes; this just saves Ascendis Caller ID from having to update it on first run) 2.3.0.38 - 2011-08-10 added default CountryCode to Locations table so old locations aren't lost during update and old XML Location files can be imported (system's country code is used for default; this should be correct for most users but if not you will have to change each Location record manually or export to CSV, alter in a text editor or spreadsheet program, and import after deleting existing Locations) trap errors during database updates and restore database default to XML file type in export dialogs 2.3.0.37 - 2011-08-05 added option to disable Whozz Calling? device memory call download (in Options window, Devices page, Whozz Calling? subpage, Options) fixed problem where calls in progress when Ascendis Caller ID was terminated would show incrementing call duration when Ascendis Caller ID was restarted and a call was active 2.3.0.36 - 2011-07-22 include US area codes in Locations list (existing customers can import "US Area Code Locations.xml" from the Ascendis Caller ID Program Files folder) support importing Locations from XML files support overwriting Locations when importing from XML files (hold down CONTROL key when selecting Import -> Locations command) added CountryCode column to Locations table (this allows locations for multiple countries in the same Locations list) added DWS script function GetDataFolder Location window: widened latitude and longitude fields; use spin edit for timezone 2.3.0.35 - 2011-07-13 network log options window: fixed cosmetic issues with some fonts Auto Import Callers window: fixed cosmetic issues with some fonts Options window: fixed cosmetic issues with some fonts fixed cosmetic issue in some message windows Find windows: fixed button truncation with some fonts contacts window: increased drop down height of Label combo box on Extras page minor improvements to pasting activation code 2.3.0.34 - 2011-07-01 added "All users share same settings" option in Options window, Advanced page (when checked, settings are stored in common ini file) 2.3.0.33 - 2011-06-30 gracefully handle problems writing to line monitor log 2.3.0.32 - 2011-06-28 fixed problem where last line of displayed messages might be hidden depending on font used 2.3.0.31 - 2011-06-27 added mute toolbar button (duplicates functionality of "Disable sound (including speech) in all actions" checkbox on Sound page of Options window) "Calls For" report: autosize column widths initially; use Windows' short date format fixed problem with speech "Play" button in Edit Action / Easy Action window when tray icon is clicked while Options window or another modal window is open, bring app to foreground and appropriate window to front added program font setting (Options window, General page) (see size note, below) use current system window title font (note that in some windows a smaller size of the selected font will be used if the selected size is too big for the window) 2.3.0.30 - 2011-05-26 fixed new calls count in Options -> Devices -> Whozz Calling? -> "Enable Whozz Calling? device on:", added option to scan for more serial ports (initially only 16 serial ports are scanned) in beta versions, only keep up to last 1MB of Line Monitor log in file (the Line Monitor log is not kept in a file in normal release versions) — this can be configured in the context (right-click) menu of the Line Monitor button bar added "Notes" column to available columns in the contacts list use activation codes instead of old registration method — THIS MEANS CUSTOMERS OF VERSIONS BEFORE VERSION 3 (which is not yet for sale at the time of this writing) WILL BE USING TRIAL MODE UNTIL THEY ACQUIRE AND ENTER AN ACTIVATION CODE.

we recommend direct-mode modem users increase the value manually since the new default won't override existing settings) use configured modem call timeout in direct mode reduced possibility of modem call timing out in direct mode because modem message had been received but not yet processed (resulting in a single call being interpreted as two calls) 2.3.0.13 - 2010-08-30 don't change the database when tracking active call duration (refreshing the calls table seems to be enough to update call duration, which is calculated) — this should avoid database engine error exception one customer saw 2.3.0.12 - 2010-08-23 fixed problem preventing "Calls for this Number" and "Calls for this Contact" reports from working when "Keep child windows on top of main window" was enabled Options window, Network page, Web/TiVo server sub-page: disable web root controls unless web server is enabled; added help clarifying web root setting 2.3.0.11 - 2010-08-20 fixed problem where system dialogs (font, color, etc) could be hidden behind other windows when switching back to Ascendis Caller ID or when call is received changed default background color for HTML notification window so "Make background transparent" (in Transparency settings window) works added Print button to Find windows Outlook actions now look for caller in contact folder and subfolders Edit Action window: select all text in script memo (Advanced actions) when CTRL+A is pressed in it fixed bug where COM methods in advanced scripts could fail because COM library wasn't initialized added INCLUDE_ACTION directive to DWS scripts when deleting a contact, use display name, first name + last name, or company in confirmation as needed added DWS script functions ContactCount, PhoneCount 2.3.0.10 - 2010-08-16 after successfully launching an editor for editing a notification layout, change the selected layout setting to the custom layout 2.3.0.9 - 2010-08-04 fixed problem deleting data files in uninstaller when requested to do so added HTML call notification window (select in Options window, Notification page; right-click on notification window (use Preview if desired) for configuration options) (NOTE: this uses a built-in HTML control, and not the Internet Explorer, Mozilla, or other browser engine. JavaScript is not supported, and CSS support is limited.) added CallInfo fields PictureHeight, PictureWidth added script commands GetSettingBool, GetSettingStr made script function "CallCount" thread safe don't used cached web page if html template was subsequently modified 2.3.0.8 - 2010-07-28 reopen devices when resuming after sleep default to '0.0.0.0' in network settings server bind addresses fixed problem printing single call update call duration in calls list during call (for Whozz Calling? and other devices that track call duration) log messages when a second instance is started 2.3.0.7 - 2010-06-28 2.3.0.6 - 2010-06-21 added date format info to Technical Support Report track and note changes in date format in Activity Log reduce font size of progress bar in status bar (used for report progress) to better fit some displays 2.3.0.5 - 2010-06-15 don't change the display panel to show an outgoing call if an incoming call is in progress don't change the display panel to a different existing call when the status of the call changes 2.3.0.4 - 2010-06-10 added option to only display contact window for known contacts when "Open contact window for each call" is enabled in Options/Notification 2.3.0.3 - 2010-06-03 trap rare exceptions when displaying a message and attempt to display using alternate methods 2.3.0.2 - 2010-05-24 Rebuild Phones command: filter non-numeric characters from phone numbers not containing letters as is done when calls are first received (the Rebuild Phones command is normally hidden; to see it hold down the control and shift keys while clicking the File menu) network log: added line separator commands to button bar context menu 2.3.0.1 - 2010-04-27 dynamically widen "active calls" pane of status bar if needed added "Calls for " and "Calls for " reports (right- click on call or contact in Calls, Calls Report, and Contact lists to access) 2.2.0.32 - 2010-04-21 workaround HiRO H50113 modem bug in direct mode with respect to CID reporting added CTRL+M shortcut to view the Line Monitor added CTRL+T shortcut to test action in Calls and Calls Report lists Repair Database now fixes invalid contact pictures by deleting them (this is not normal, but could occur if a pre-2.2.0.3 version of ACID is used with a 2.2.0.3 or later database) trap and warn if an invalid contact picture is detected allow overwriting contacts during import (hold down CONTROL key while selecting "File -> Import -> Actions") don't show Edit Action button for Locations list always use CTRL+A for Edit Action, CTRL+E for Edit Contact, and CTRL+K for Edit Call Notes regardless of which list is showing, if the command is allowed show note about database compatibility in installer if relevant backup and repair database at install time if previous version < 2.2.0.32 automatically backup database before repair 2.2.0.31 - 2010-04-15 allow overwriting actions during import for XML files (hold down CONTROL key while selecting "File -> Import -> Actions") 2.2.0.30 - 2010-04-14 don't log "Could not find phone number format rule" message when phone number is empty (such as for "No Caller Information" calls) fixed potential problem resulting in delayed end of sound detection in direct mode fixed potential problem using PhoneSound in TAPI mode added "Post-answer delay" to Advanced Device Properties window added Help button to Advanced Device Properties window added "Use DTR for hangup" setting to Device Properties window hangup changes: changes introduced in previous version are not compatible with all modems, so now they're only done by default for Zoom 3049C and Zoom 3095, and only in direct mode Find commands: restore find window if minimized trap potential exceptions when generating settings portion of Technical Support Report 2.2.0.29 - 2010-04-02 improved TAPI-mode data modem hangup success rate for some modems (no failures after change in our tests) fixed bug in Contact window where changing only the action and closing the window by pressing the Enter key didn't save the change hang up after action that plays sound file(s) on Skype if action didn't hang up (now the same as other devices) convert sound files to Skype format before playing (improves sound file compatibility with Skype, which only supports PCM/16kHz/16-bit) fixed problem hanging up and playing sounds with Skype connections (problem was introduced in 2.2.0.20, when separate script threads were added) fixed bug where sound files for easy actions and old-style scripts were not found if the path was not specified even if they existed in the program folder (this fixes the problem with the built-in "Ring" action) added "Duplicate Action" command to Actions context menu improved direct-mode modem hangup success rate for some modems (from about 90% to 100% in our tests) 2.2.0.28 - 2010-03-20 automatically resize pictures when pasted or loaded into Contact window (pictures are resampled to a height of 200 pixels if larger unless "Autosize Images" is disabled on display panel context menu) improved real-time networking speed, especially with large action scripts or contact pictures serial mode message normalization don't display message on startup when modem in serial mode does not support voice mode (it will still be logged) 2.2.0.27 - 2010-03-17 show meaningful error message instead of generic exception when display panel can't be drawn (extremely rare) 2.2.0.26 - 2010-03-12 don't try to use serial port if open fails stop trying to open serial port if SetCommTimeouts fails 2.2.0.25 - 2010-03-11 don't stop trying to configure serial port if SetCommTimeouts fails 2.2.0.24 - 2010-03-10 fixed problem when changing modem settings from TAPI to direct mode while scripts are running show progress window when waiting for scripts to complete while shutting down or changing modem settings 2.2.0.23 - 2010-03-02 updated help to include changes since version 2.2.0.0 Activity Log: added F3/Find Next command reduced delay before playing sound over phone in direct mode 2.2.0.22 - 2010-02-26 fixed problems remembering main and find windows size and position 2.2.0.21 - 2010-02-25 increased network client polling speed and responsiveness polling: don't send the same auxiliary records more than once during a single poll 2.2.0.20 - 2010-02-24 sped up network logging scripts run in separate threads (fixes freeze while playing sounds over modems in direct mode) improved direct mode sound playback for HiRO H50113 (for best results, use sounds in 4bit IMA ADPCM format) 2.2.0.19 - 2010-02-19 fixed problem converting wave files for PhoneSound in direct mode that may have added short garbage to end of sound 2.2.0.18 - 2010-02-17 don't pass signed PCM sound data to modem in unsigned PCM mode and vice versa — fixes noisy sound issues with Zoom 3095 on some wave files throttle sound data to modem in direct mode — fixes sound playback speed problem with long wave files 2.2.0.17 - 2010-02-15 trap and report exceptions when rebuilding database implemented delete in Find Calls window (press the "DEL" key to delete a call) fixed problem with 'New Calls' count when deleting multiple calls from calls report with mixed 'New' status mark calls report dirty when 'New' is changed in a call added fixed width font checkbox to Line Monitor trap registry exceptions when "AttachedTo" registry entry for modem is the wrong data type (one user with a non-standard device reported this error) added limited PhoneSound support in direct mode. This has been tested mostly successfully in the following OS/modem configurations: o Vista 64-bit with Zoom 3049C (best sound), Zoom 3095, and HiRO H50113 (driver v.2.1.88.0; sound usually not so good) o Vista 32-bit with Zoom 3049C (best sound), Zoom 3095, and HiRO H50113 (driver v.2.1.88.0; sound usually not so good) o Windows XP with Zoom 3049C (best sound), Zoom 3095, and HiRO H50113 (driver 2.1.70; sound poor) o Windows 7 64-bit with Zoom 3049C (good sound), Zoom 3095, HiRO H50113 (driver v.2.2.98.0; good sound) Notes: - The HiRO H50113 is an external USB winmodem and seems pickier than the hardware Zoom modems. You may or may not have luck with it. - If your modem can't play a particular sound file or ACID can't convert it to a compatible format, check the Line Monitor for a list of formats your modem supports (search for "ModemFormatID"; the list may be appear cryptic, but it contains the information you need to make an optimally compatible sound file). Use your favorite sound editor or Audacity, a free, open-source sound recorder and editor: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ 2.2.0.16 - 2010-01-30 support filtering phone numbers from device to remove unwanted digits (such as outgoing line selection): To use, add a phone format rule (Options window, Format page) and include an 'F' in the position of the digit to remove. Be sure to make the conditions explicit so numbers that shouldn't be altered aren't (to remove a leading digit, you will probably need a "Length = n" condition AND a "Number starts with m" rule). phone number formats: detect changes to format conditions and rebuild phone records Line Monitor: give focus to memo when find panel is closed; added F3/Find Next command reopen modems configured for serial mode if "Prefer raw caller id" was changed in Options window (device properties) 2.2.0.15 - 2010-01-29 don't allow viewing network window when networking is disabled added help for DWS date and time functions fixed enabling/disabling/registrations problem with Whozz Calling? devices in Options window introduced in 2.2.0.14 enabled scroll bars in Script Editor added DWS functions AnsiSameStr, AnsiSameText when receiving actions from an ACID server, gracefully handle case where an action with the same name but a different unique identifier exists 2.2.0.14 - 2010-01-26 Options window: when user enables Whozz Calling? device, adjust the number of lines monitored (and tell user) if insufficient registrations are installed 2.2.0.13 - 2010-01-20 fixed problem where device might not be opened even though it was enabled in the Options window, Devices page: the problem happened when another device with the same TAPI ID and name had been used by an ACID server to which the computer was a client modem repair: enable Try Again button when modem could not be opened fixed hangup command for some modems (like HiRO H50113 (Agere chipset)) in TAPI mode 2.2.0.12 - 2010-01-18 only include unused TAPI devices in Line Monitor during initialization if the total number of TAPI devices is less than or equal to 10 (used TAPI devices are always listed) — this will shorten the Line Monitor in extreme cases so it retains more diagnostic data 2.2.0.11 - 2010-01-12 modem repair: other tweaks modem repair: fixed endless loop and stack overflow when insufficient rings were received Line Monitor: include device name if multiple devices are used 2.2.0.10 - 2010-01-06 Whozz Calling? calls in memory (for units with memory): corrected call start and end times (they were off by call duration); use previous year if call day and month is more than 2 weeks in the future (units do not store year of call) sped up Line Monitor processing when displayed and enabled added Find function to Script Editor (press CTRL+F to access) modem repair: support repairing modems already open directly modem repair: open modem directly if TAPI open fails when performing an action for a call, log the action name to Line Monitor 2.2.0.9 - 2009-12-31 modem repair: added raw cid support modem repair: fixed MESG response generation when NMBR response <> "NMBR" recognize "DDN_NMBR" as caller's phone number in TAPI bypass mode 2.2.0.8 - 2009-12-21 trap and report exception if a problem prevents a TAPI line from being accessed during communications spinup fixed bug where an outgoing call placed through a modem but not through Ascendis Caller ID would trigger the action for "No Caller Information" unless configured to ignore outgoing calls added support for raw caller id for modems when not using TAPI (check "Prefer raw caller id" in Device Properties window from Devices page of Options window) 2.2.0.7 - 2009-12-17 remember "Fixed width font" setting in Activity Log window between executions fixed problem with some modems under TAPI that change call handles during the call that could cause a single call to be interpreted as two calls fixed potential problem with modems under TAPI on slow or busy machines that could cause a single call to be interpreted as two calls added Find function to Line Monitor and Activity Log windows (press CTRL+F to access) fixed problem accessing modem responses in modem analysis part of support report on normal user accounts in Vista and Windows 7 2.2.0.6 - 2009-11-23 fixed race condition with realtime network clients which could eventually prevent communications with clients and proper application shutdown added DWS script functions IPos, Contains, ContainsText added CallInfo.DeviceName (synonym for CallInfo.RawLine) when importing or deleting locations, update the calls list immediately 2.2.0.5 - 2009-10-20 when importing contacts, don't split first name or last name fields fixed CallInfo when accessed from nested action 2.2.0.4 - 2009-10-16 fixed problem importing contacts from CSV file when LastName was the only name field provided added documentation for StringReplace to DWS String Library topic in Help added following advanced DWS action commands: GetTempPath, GetAppFolder, FileExists, StartsWith, EndsWith disable Ctrl+D shortcut (for dialing) when the command is hidden (fixes exception in that case) added "PerformAction" command to advanced DWS actions Edit Action window: when an action type is changed to advanced, automatically add "//LANGUAGE=DWS" if the script is empty 2.2.0.3 - 2009-10-13 fixed problem when polled by version 1 network clients added "RunWait" command to advanced DWS actions added "Edit Action" and "Add Action" commands to item toolbar when Action list is visible after changing an action's name, position the Action list on the action after creating a new action, position the Action list on the new action Options window, Devices page, Skype sub-page: disallow enabling Skype if all registrations are already in use support overwriting local contacts when contact is received from server via polling Options window, advanced Network page, Client sub-page: added "Overwrite local actions" setting: when enabled, actions sent from server will replace local actions when they exist; when disabled actions sent from server will only be accepted if the action doesn't already exist Options window, advanced Network page, Server sub-page: added settings for sending contacts and actions to network clients (previously contacts were always sent; sending actions only applies to version 2 network clients) 2.2.0.2 - 2009-09-30 fixed rare "RichEdit line insertion error" when editing a script 2.2.0.1 - 2009-09-29 fixed problem where a small notification window would show the wrong call data if the call was deleted while the window was showing when testing an action from the Action list, load the test caller's contact info if a contact is defined added ContactCallsMade, ContactCallsReceived, ContactFirstCalled, ContactLastCalled, PhoneCallsMade, PhoneCallsReceived, PhoneFirstCalled, PhoneLastCalled to CallInfo object 2.2.0.0 - 2009-09-25 all changes since 2.1.2.0 2.1.2.21 - 2009-09-15 added Ini and Classes libraries to DWS scripts;

Lite devices are not supported; all devices are treated the same with respect to capabilities (first ring suppression and call blocking will be inconsistent if not all devices support it; no calls will be downloaded from devices with memory); devices must specify unique line numbers (supported on Whozz Calling? 4 and 8) fixed potential range check error when waiting for Whozz Calling? 2 devices to erase memory fixed Whozz Calling? ring type detection for calls with only one ring allow more time for Whozz Calling? devices to respond (improves behavior with Whozz Calling? Ethernet Link devices) more informative error message when ELSetup or ELPopup could be preventing communication with Whozz Calling? Ethernet Link devices fixed occasional bizarre phone number formatting for ###NUMBER### tag in calls table in HTML pages support ###ACTIONNAME### tag in calls table in HTML pages 2.1.0.26 - 2008-09-24 fixed potential exception when activity log messages are added from secondary threads (introduced in 2.1.0.16) trap and ignore EIdConnClosedGracefully exception when disconnecting from mail server 2.1.0.25 - 2008-09-19 reflect location changes immediately in calls list, display, and actions (note that contact location information still overrides location list data, so calls from known contacts use the contact location info instead, even if empty) 2.1.0.24 - 2008-09-07 fixed rare problem where null in activity log caused improper extraction of newest entries for technical support report 2.1.0.23 - 2008-09-05 added ability to open data path from about box (right-click on "Ascendis Software" logo for command) added data path to technical support report 2.1.0.22 - 2008-09-03 polling server: fixed potential hang on program shutdown if client disconnects before receiving all calls polling server: send calls in date order so client can pick up where it left off in case of premature disconnection use disk tables for polling server queries (may improve memory usage) improved accuracy of bytes sent & received reporting in Network Status window improved Whozz Calling? handshake reliability when device is slow to respond (could be caused by slow or overloaded computer?) 2.1.0.21 - 2008-08-27 improved network polling performance when network logging is disabled don't log warnings about non-numeric phone numbers with unmatched format rule 2.1.0.20 - 2008-08-12 added option to keep child windows on top of main window (currently applies to Edit Contact, Edit Call, Find, Activity Log, Line Monitor, Modem Log, Modem Responses, Network Status windows) — see General page of Options window, "Keep child windows on top of main window".

Options window: if a modem configuration was changed, reopen TAPI AND serial devices (fixes bug where changing modem from TAPI to serial or vice-versa didn't open device until restart) 2.1.0.19 - 2008-07-18 added call timeout setting to device properties page (access from Devices page in Options window) — increase this if your rings are more than 10 seconds apart (6 is common in the US) or your modem or system is very slow (The disadvantage of a long call timeout is that a new call received within the timeout window will be perceived as the same call, since modems are pretty dumb, call-wise) don't cache contact pictures in display panel (so image shown always matches the image in the Edit Contact window) 2.1.0.18 - 2008-07-12 when repairing database, fix contacts without UID by creating new UID (this should not happen, but has for at least one user) fixed problem where wrong phone number was probably used when looking up contact's phone number on the internet 2.1.0.17 - 2008-07-07 modem repair & direct serial mode: support "DDN" and "DN" as synonyms for "NMBR" (may improve behavior with some Canadian phone companies) 2.1.0.16 - 2008-06-28 support three TLS options for SMTP authentication (NOTE: users previously using "Secure (TLS) Login" will probably need to change the authentication setting to "Secure Login (Require TLS)" to get mail working again) 2.1.0.15 - 2008-06-27 ignore Whozz Calling? Ethernet network echoes 2.1.0.14 - 2008-06-20 log error code when modem responses registry key cannot be opened 2.1.0.13 - 2008-06-17 install "Empty Database.ciddb" into program folder (this can be restored (File -> Restore Database) to restore database to initial contents, deleting all added calls, contacts, actions, locations, etc.) fixed small (normally not detectable) memory leak in Whozz Calling? device support introduced in 2.1.0.11 replace missing phone records when encountered 2.1.0.12 -

2008-03-26 fixed Network Status window getting moved from secondary monitor (left of primary monitor) to primary monitor when closed and opened within a session removed separate "Log on to incoming mail server before sending mail" option (Options window, Mail page) — set Authentication to "POP3 Login" instead added TLS login support for mail server (Options window, Mail page) added "Log mail communications to Activity Log" to Options window, Mail page fixed EIntOverflow exception on systems w/o sound when running script added POP3 port setting to Mail page of Options window fixed Repair Modem problem under Vista in certain cases moved device settings from registry to ini file support loading GIF files for contact images keep windows accessible on startup on multiple monitor systems when monitor arrangement has changed added preliminary SIP support (not completed yet!) 2.0.1.18 -
