IVR Interactive Voice Response
This section of our technical library presents information and documentation relating to IVR and interactive voice response software as well as automatic call answering solutions.
Business phone systems and toll free answering systems (generally 800 numbers and their equivalent) are very popular for service and sales organizations, allowing customers and prospects to call your organization anywhere in the country.
Our PACER and Wizard IVR systems add another dimension to our call center phone system solutions. An Interactive Voice Response (IVR) processes inbound phone calls, plays recorded messages including information extracted from databases and the internet, and potentially routes calls to either in-house service agents or transfers the caller to an outside extension.
Using IVR Report Server Client API
Other Structures
struct IrsApiVersionResponse{
char
errorstring[65];
};
On IRSAPI_RT_VERSION, this structure will contain an
error string (IrsApiVersionResponse.errorstring) revealing the version
mismatch:
char
m_Buffer[512]; // more than large enough
static
char l_Buffer[sizeof(struct
IrsApiResponse)];
static struct
IrsApiResponse * mainResponse =
(IrsApiResponse *)&l_Buffer;
static struct
IrsApiVersionResponse * versionResponse =
(IrsApiVersionResponse *)mainResponse->value;
if(IRSMessage(m_Buffer,
10)){
switch(mainResponse->type){
case
IRSAPI_RT_PONG:
{
// the
server is running…
}
break;
case
IRSAPI_RT_VERSION:
{
// e.g., "IRS Error - Client Version1 mismatch with
DscIRS Version2"
printf(versionResponse->errorstring);
}
break;

Wizard Simplifies Development
DSC provides IVR software including our IVR wizard development tool for creating interactive voice response applications.
Our IVR software lets you increase IVR development productivity by providing a visual development environment. IVR applications can be defined in minutes using this sophisticated, yet easy to use development tool.
DSC also has available a comprehensive IVR software library known as our IVR Wizard Software Development Kit. This optional package is available for programmers and systems adminstrators who wish to manage IVR programs fromLinux IVR, Unix, or Windows IVR operating environments.
Data collected by your phone ACD (Automatic Call Distribution) or IVR (Interactive Voice Response) systems can be passed to your existing PC, Unix or Web applications through our phone software.
The PACER predictive dialer can automatically call your customers and pass only connected calls to your agents. With our computer telephony software, your telephone and computer work together to provide cost-saving benefits.
