Introduction

This manual provides step-by-step instructions for integrating Zenitel Connect Pro with CCURE9000. The integration process involves setting up the database, installing necessary client software, and configuring the connection within the CCURE9000 interface. Note: Ensure that the client version is installed on each individual PC functioning as a CCURE9000 client. This process needs to be repeated for each client machine to ensure proper setup and functionality. The database installation, however, will only be done on the machine where the database is hosted.

Prerequisites

Before you begin the integration process, ensure you have the following:

  • Administrator access to CCURE9000
  • The latest version of Zenitel Connect Pro
  • Database access for setup

Installation Process

Database Setup

1. Run the Zenitel Connect Pro Installer

  • The installer will check for an existing database.
  • If a database is found, the necessary tables for the integration will be written automatically.
  • If no database is found, the installer will proceed to install a client version of the database.

2. Database Installation (if required):

  • Follow the on-screen instructions to install the client version of the database.
  • Ensure all installation steps are completed successfully.

3. Verify Installation:

  • Confirm that these database tables required for the integration have been created:
    • ConnectProServer
    • ZenitelOperator
    • Intercom

Configuring the Zenitel Connect Pro Connection
