Protect Yourself from Electric Shock

To reduce the risk of electric shock:

n Switch off the power and remove power cords

before opening the computer case to install the

D/41D or D/21D.

n Do not re-attach power cords and switch on power

to the computer while the computer case is removed.

Protect the Board from Static Electricity

Computer boards are static-sensitive and can be damaged

by touching or handling them. To prevent damage from

static electricity, do the following:

n Wear a grounded, static-dissipative wrist-strap for

the entire hardware installation.

n Keep the board in its anti-static container when it is

not being handled.

n Work at a static-safe work area (see Figure 1).

Figure 1. Static-safe work area

A static-safe work area consists of a grounded static-

dissipative wrist strap and a work surface covered with

or composed of a grounded static-dissipative material.

The work surface drains electrical charges from conduc-

tive materials when the materials are placed on the sur-

face. The grounded static-dissipative wrist strap drains

static charge from the person wearing the strap. Both

components ensure that static charges are drained at a

rate and current level that are safe. Both must be used

any time a person is handling any component.

Read Your Software Documentation

Your application software or Dialogic software release

(hereinafter collectively called “voice software”) may

have special installation or configuration instructions or

requirements. Be sure to read all software documentation

for any such instructions or requirements.

Installation Order

You can install the D/41D or D/21D and voice software

in any order, but Dialogic recommends that you install

the voice software first when running in a Windows



or Windows NT



environment, and board first in any

other operating system environment.

D/41D or D/21D Factory Defaults

You may be able to use the factory defaults when install-

ing the D/41D or D/21D board. Read through these

instructions and check for possible interrupt level (IRQ)

and memory address conflicts between the D/41D or

D/21D board and other software or hardware devices

(for example, video card or CD ROM controller card)

before installing the board.

Note: If you own a software utility that can determine

what IRQs and memory addresses are in use, run it to

help determine potential conflicts before installing the

D/41D or D/21D. Some voice software includes such a

software utility, or a separate board configuration utility,

to help with the D/41D or D/21D installation and

configuration.

Configuring the

Hardware

Configuring Multiple Voice Boards (JP7)

You can install up to 16 D/41D or D/21D boards in a

system. One and only one board in a system can have

the jumper on JP7 installed (see D/41D Physical

Description):

n One board: Leave the jumper on JP7 installed

(default).

n Multiple boards: Remove the jumper on JP7 from

all but one board.

Setting the Hardware Interrupt Level (JP1)

The default hardware interrupt level (IRQ) is IRQ 2/9;

IRQ 2 is used when the board is installed in an XT-type

PC and IRQ 9 is used with an AT-type PC.

Change the IRQ by moving the jumper on jumper block

JP1 (see Figure 2) to another IRQ setting if IRQ 2 or 9 is

in use by another device.

Note: Set every D/41D and D/21D board in the system

to the same IRQ level.

Set the Memory Address

Each D/41D or D/21D and compatible voice board

installed in a computer must have a unique memory

address consisting of a base memory address segment

and an offset address.

Set the Base Memory Address Segment

(JP5 and JP6)

The default base memory address segment for the D/41D

and D/21D is D000H (Hexadecimal). Generally, you

should use the default unless there are more than eight

boards in your system or if other non-Dialogic devices in

your system must use the D000H segment. Select the

base address memory segment with jumpers JP5 and JP6

(see Figure 2) as follows:

use

Set the Offset Address (SW1:1, 2, 3)

The default offset address for the D/41D and D/21D is

0000H. Each D/41D and D/21D board in your system

requires a unique address, so you must change the offset

address on every additional D/41D and D/21D board. If

you need to change an offset address, set the switches 1,

2, and 3 on SW1 (see Figure 2) as follows:

n While you can map only one D/41D or D/21D

board to an offset, you can set multiple boards to

consecutive offsets within a base memory

segment as shown in the following example.

Setting the Initial Hook Switch State (SW1:4) SW1 switch 4 (SW 1:4 in Figure 2) sets the initial hook switch state for the D/41D and D/21D board. This setting is active only when the PC is powered on but the firmware has not yet been downloaded to the board. If the initial hook switch state is set to on-hook (default) the board presents an inbound call with a ring no answer state. You can change the initial hook switch state to offhook to present a busy signal instead. Installing the Hardware 1.
