Protecting the Board from Damage

Caution! All computer boards are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (“ESD”). Handle all static-sensitive boards and components at a static-safe work area, and observe anti-static precautions at all times.

If you are not familiar with ESD safety precautions, visit http://www.dialogic.com/support/hwinstall to learn more.

1.Prepare a static-safeguarded work area.

2.Carefully remove the board from the shipping carton and anti-static packaging. Handle the board by the edges and avoid touching the board’s components.

3.Lay the board on the static-dissipative work surface.

Note: Place boards in static-shielding bags when carrying boards from station to station.

CAUTION: Do not remove the board from the anti-static packaging until you are ready to install it. Observe proper anti-static precautions at all times.

Configuring the Hardware

Board Identification

The device driver, part of the system software, assigns board instance numbers in ascending order (beginning with 0) as it detects each board in your system. A board instance number is the identification (ID) number used by the system software to recognize the board.

NOTE: If you add or remove a board, the system may change the existing board instance (ID) numbers.

Windows System

Leave SW1 set to the factory default of Board ID 0 to let the system automatically assign board instance numbers by PCI bus slot number.

After the hardware and the system software are installed, refer to the Dialogic® Configuration Manager (DCM) utility to retrieve the assigned board instance (ID) number(s). For more information about board identification, see the DCM online help.

Linux System

In a Linux system, you must set SW1 to a unique number for each installed board. Use a non-magnetic screwdriver to turn SW1 to 1 of 16 board settings, 0–9 or A–F.

After the hardware and the system software are installed, refer to the proper configuration files to retrieve the assigned board instance (ID) number(s). For more information about Linux configuration files, see the Dialogic® System Software documentation.

Installing the Hardware

NOTE: If you are adding hardware to an existing system, you do not need to uninstall existing Dialogic® System Software.

1.Working with your computer at a static-safe work area, switch off the power and disconnect all power cords from the electrical outlets.

2.Remove the computer cover.

3.Select an empty PCI expansion bus slot and remove the slot’s retaining screw and access cover plate.

4.If you are not installing your board in an ISA form factor PCI slot, remove the ISA edge retainer bracket from the board.

5.Using the slot’s board guides, insert the edge connector of the board into the bus slot. Press firmly until the board is securely seated in the slot.
