Tray Monitor

The TAPI Tray Monitor allows the user to see the current status of their TAPI connection at a glance, as well as providing the ability to restart the Go TAPI Broadworks Service in the event of a problem.

It is recommended that you disable Remote Access Connection Manager if the service is not being used.

Note: If a user is using a VPN it will need Remote Access Connection Manager to be running, so they cannot disable the service.
