CHAPTER 1 Introduction Description of the RVON-8 Voice Over Network Card Installed directly into the ADAM Intercom frame, the RVON-8 provides voice over IP (Internet Protocol) communications for the RTS ADAM intercom family. In general, voice over IP means sending voice information in digital form using discrete packets rather than the traditional telephone network.
Features Installation The RVON-8 card is hot-swappable and installs in any available slot in an ADAM Intercom System. It provides a single RJ-45 Ethernet connection for use with a 10 BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX network. It also has a DB-9 connection for an RS-232 or RS-485 pass-thru port. 8 Channels of Audio IN and OUT Expands the connectivity of the ADAM intercom by supporting 8 channels (ports) IN and OUT.

CHAPTER 2 Installation Installation of the RVON-8 Card into the ADAM System When inserting the RVON-8 card into the ADAM system, the following considerations need to be made: NOTE: • Gently insert the RVON-8 card into the correct slot. If the card is forced or twisted while inserting, a pin on the backplane could short or break causing the card to become inoperable. • When inserting the RVON-8 card into the ADAM system, make sure to insert it into a compatible backcard.

DO NOT FORCE MATING THE CARDS. Addresses and the RVON-8 Card Because the RVON-8 has an Ethernet interface, it is required to have a MAC (Media Access Control) address. This is a low level address that contains 48 bits.
DIP Switch 1 Closed: Configuration via AZedit is disabled Open: (Default) Configuration via AZedit is enabled. Description: DIP Switch 2 Disables configuration changes via AZedit. AZedit will still be able to view the card configuration and connection status. The configuration can still be changed via the serial and Telnet connections. Closed: The RVON card holds the definitive configuration file. Open: (Default) The Master Controller holds the definitive configuration file.
Configuring the RVON-8 Card with AZedit Once the RVON-8 card is inserted into the Intercom, AZedit will automatically recognize the card. NOTE: Requires intercom firmware and AZedit software that supports RVON cards. To configure the RVON-8 card, do the following: 8 1. From the Status menu, select I/O Cards. The IO Card Status screen appears showing the types of installed cards. 2. Right -click on an RVON-8 card, and select RVON-8 Configuration. The RVON-8 Configuration screen appears. 3.
4. In the IP Address field, enter the IP Address you have assign to the RVON-8 card. 5. In the Network Mask field, enter the Network Mask of the network to which the RVON-8 card is connected. 6. In the Default Gateway field, enter the Default Gateway Address (if applicable) of the network to which the RVON8 card is connected. A Default Gateway is only required if the RVON-8 connections are between LANs. Under Settings for Pass-Through Serial via Ethernet 7.
RVON-8 Connection Status Screen The RVON-8 connection status screens display information pertaining to RVON-8 channel connection. You can only show statistics for one channel on a card at a time. NOTE: To view the RVON-8 Connection Status screens make sure both AZedit and the RVON-8 card are on the same Ethernet network. The reason this is important is because the statistics are updated once per second. At this rate of dynamic update, a serial port could not pass this much data effectively.
Screen Item Description Select Local Card and Channel RVON-8 Card The card for which you want to view the status. From the RVON-8 drop down list, select the card you want to view. IP Address Displays the IP (Internet Protocol) Address of the card you select. Local Channel One of eight audio channels supported by the RVON-8 card. From the Channel drop down list, select the channel for which you want to view the status.

SCREEN ITEM 16 DESCRIPTION Serial To Ethernet The Serial to Ethernet information shows the serial data that is received on the serial connection and transferred to the Ethernet address of the card to which the serial data is sent. Bytes Transferred Displays the number of bytes transferred from the serial connction to Ethernet. Bytes Lost Displays the number of bytes that cound not be transferred. Errors Displays the number of errors that occurred during transfer.
Download RVON-8 Firmware through AZedit NOTE: AZedit sends the program directly to the RVON-8 card over Ethernet. This is different from other I/O cards that receive the firmware from the Master Controller. For this reason, verify the PC running AZedit is on the same network as the RVON-8 card. If it is not, AZedit will not be able to find the RVON-8 card. To test the connection, ping the RVON-card from a command line. For more information on testing for a connection see Appendix A. 1. Open AZedit. 2.
7. Click Begin Download. The download begins. 8. Click OK. The RVON-8 firmware download is complete. This takes a minute of two to occur. 9. Verify the version upgrade in the I/O Card Version Information Window is correct. WARNING: Do NOT power down the frame or pull the RVON-8 card(s) from the frame until you have verified the new version information from AZedit.

APPENDIX A Basic Network Configuration Basic Network Configuration This section covers basic network configuration set-up and testing. Also covered are basic concepts and operations, including the difference between LAN and WAN networks and how IP Addressing is used. In a networked environment, such as a company, typically there are many computers connected together using a router or a switch. In larger companies, there may be several different routers distributed in buildings and plant locations.
FIGURE 5. Local Area Network Diagram WIDE AREA NETWORK A wide area network (WAN) connects two or more LANs and can span a relatively large geographical area. For example, Telex Headquarters in Burnsville, MN is connected to several branch offices in Nebraska and Arkansas over a WAN. The largest WAN in existence is the Internet. FIGURE 6.
ACCESSING THE WIDE AREA NETWORK (WAN) Figure 3 shows LAN IP Addresses using a common IP Address, 10.2.100.X (192.168.X.X is another common address). Most devices are shipped with these addresses as its default. It is recommended to use these addresses for LANs. FIGURE 7. Network Address Translation NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION (NAT) Using the initial IP Address, then converting it to a valid WAN IP Address is how the network address translation works, in theory.
TABLE 5. Packet Translation Packet before Translation Source Packet After Translation Destination Source IP Address Port Number IP Address Port Number IP Address Port Number IP Address Port Number To Internet 10.2.100.1 1031 192.156.136.22 80 99.5.1.30 1032 192.156.136.22 80 From Internet 192.156.136.22 80 99.5.1.30 1032 192.156.136.22 80 10.2.100.
IP ADDRESSES If you do not know your IP Address, you can open a DOS screen in a Windows®- based environment and bring up the ipconfig screen. To find your IP Address using ipconfig, do the following: 1. From the Start Menu, open a Command Prompt screen. 2. At the prompt, type ipconfig, then press Enter. The IP configurations appear for your machine, such as the DNS suffix, IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway. 3. At the prompt, type Exit to close the screen.
Ping a Computer Pinging a computer on the network makes sure it is able to be “seen” and receive messages on the network. NOTE: You can also ping your RVON-8 card to verify that it is responding over the network by putting the cards IP Address in place of the computer IP Address. To Ping a computer on the network, do the following: 1. 2. From the Start menu, select Run.... At the Run command, type CMD to open a Command Prompt screen. 3.
2. At the prompt, type tracert and type the url or IP Address you want to trace. 3. Press Enter. The details of the tracer route are displayed. NOTE: 4. You will the message “request timed out” if the IP Address/ port IN or OUT is denied to the incoming or outgoing message. When you are finished, type exit to close the Command Prompt screen. RVON Configuration RVON cards use ports for communication of audio and control packets.
Below, is an example of a router configuration screen. Not all routers are configured the same way and may not look exactly like this screen. NOTE: 44 Linksys™ supports up to 253 nodes on a router. This is why it is called a Router/Switch because there are WAN functions like a router as well as having a 4-port LAN switch. It also does not support simultaneous forward and DHCP.
Network Terminology Bridge A bridge is a device that connects two LANs, or two segments of the same LAN that use the same protocol. Sometimes called “transparent bridges” they work at the OSI model layer 2. Simply put, they are not concerned with protocols. Their main job is to pass data to a destination address that is predetermined in the data packet. With a bridge, all of your computers are on the same network subnet (see Subnet).
46 LAN A LAN is a computer network that connects a relatively small area (a single building or group of buildings). Most LANs connect work stations and computers to each other. Each computer (also known as a “node”) has its own processing unit and executes its own programs; however, it can also access data and devices anywhere on the LAN. This means that many users can access and share the same information and devices. A good example of a LAN device is a network printer.

CHAPTER 4 RVON-8 Card Serial Port Programming RVON Serial and Telnet Commands RVON card programming can be done via direct serial or telnet connection. There are several physical connections to an RVON board: • Direct serial through custom debug cable (J20 6-pin bottom front) The customer debug cable always functions as the general-purpose debug tool. • Backcard DB-9 J2 The backcard DB-(must be disabled/enabled via a DIP Switch because it can also be used for serial port passthrough.
