This emulates LCD display. It reflects current ACC state (monitoring, online operation, talking, recording and so on) and last detected caller information. Besides, when Inbox area is active, status display reflects number of currently playing message. Otherwise there will be timer.
On the right hand of LCD display there is a raw of icons. Hover mouse cursor over them and hold for a few seconds, and you will see brief descriptions. You can click each icon and it will perform associated action. For example, clicking tape icon will begin recording from the line or terminate recording if something is recording. Gear icon will display properties, and an icon with wire will connect the program to modem or free it for use with another application (like Internet dial-up utility).
There are several buttons controlling the program.
