The TAPI Client Test executes the tux –o –d tapiclient –c "-d0 -pT9,5551212 -nl" command line on default execution. You can modify the test by editing the command line. For information about how to edit the command line for a test, see Editing the Command-Line for a Test. The following table shows the command line parameters for the Telephony API Client Test.

Command line parameter	Description
-l	Lists all TAPI devices and then exit without making any calls.
-n number_of_calls	Sets the number of calls to be made. The default value for number of calls is 1.
-p phone_number	Sets the telephone number to be dialed. The default value is set to NULL. You can specify a phone number using any one of the following formats: Begin the phone number with a plus (+). This format instructs the test to read the number in canonical format — country/region code followed by area code followed by local number — and then translate the number according to TAPI dialing rules for the current location. An example of this format is -p "+1(111)111-1111". Begin the phone number with a pound sign (#). This format instructs the test to set the phone number to NULL. This setting is acceptable is some scenarios, for example when testing a null modem. Begin the phone number with any character other than a plus (+) or pound sign (#). This format instructs the test to dial the number directly. You should precede a phone number to be dialed with a P for pulse or T for tone dialing plus any digits that may be required to access an outside line. An example of this format is -pT9,111-1111.
-d device_identifier	Specifies the device identifier of the line to be tested. You can obtain a list of device identifiers by using the –l parameter. The default value for the device identifier is 0, which corresponds to the external modem on most Windows Embedded CE run-time images.
-td seconds	Sets the dialing timeout, in seconds. A call disconnects if it does not complete in the specified number of seconds. The default value for dialing timeout is 30 seconds.
-tc seconds	Sets the connection delay in seconds. The test waits for the specified number of seconds after a call completes prior to disconnecting the call. The default value for connection delay is 10 seconds.
-th seconds	Sets the hang-up command timeout interval in seconds. The test waits for the specified number of seconds prior to discontinuing a hang-up attempt. The default value is 5 seconds.
-tw seconds	Sets the deallocation delay interval in seconds. The test waits for the specified number of seconds after a call is disconnected prior to deallocating the call handle. The default value is 1 second.
-e	Display the following dialog boxes, with which you can configure the device and edit the current location: Device Properties, with which you can change the baud and other parameters for the TAPI device. Dialing Properties, with which you can change the location and other parameters that affect address translation.
-h	Displays information about the test.
