Additional Information

Additional information about the DM/V1200BTEPEQ

Media board is available from a number of sources, such as via its product data sheet, which is accessible at http://www.dialogic.com/products/list.asp.

The product data sheet provides a functional description of the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board, as well as information about its applications, configurations, features, and technical specifications.

Refer to the Release Guide and the online Release

Update for your Dialogic ® System Software release to verify that the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board is supported in the release, and for information on any new features or issues that may relate to it.

The Regulatory Notices document that is packed with each DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board contains safety warnings and national requirements for proper operation of telecommunications equipment.

2. Before You Begin

Protecting the Board from Damage

CAUTION: All computer boards are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (“ESD”). Handle all staticsensitive 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://dialogic.com/support/hwinstall to learn more.

Unpacking the Board

Unpack the board according to the following steps:

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.

3. Configuring the Board

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board uses Plug and

Play technology to simplify installation. No user configuration is required for IRQ or memory address.

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board has the following manually configurable options:

■ Board ID

■

■

■

CT Bus termination

Power-off loopback mode

Boot-up loopback mode

■ Power budgeting (see Choosing a Slot section below)

Setting the Board ID

When the system is started, each Dialogic ® telecom board is assigned a board instance ID number that programs can use to identify individual boards in a multi-board system. The setting of SW1 controls the generation of the instance numbers.

Windows Systems: In a Windows system, leave

SW1 set to the 0 position (the factory default setting) on all Dialogic ® telecom boards. This setting causes the system software to assign instance numbers geographically, based on the bus and slot numbers. Note that there is no way to know what the instance numbers will be until the system is started and configured, and the instance number for any given board is likely to change when there is any change in the number or arrangement of boards in the system.

You can read the ID numbers assigned to the boards in the Dialogic ® Configuration Manager

(DCM) tool after you start the system.

Linux Systems: In a Linux system, you must explicitly specify the board ID numbers by setting SW1 on each board to a different position

(0-9 or A-F). Refer to the Configuration Guide for

DM3 architecture products in your Dialogic ®

System Software documentation for further information about the board ID numbers.

Setting CT Bus Termination

If you are connecting multiple boards via a CT Bus cable, the bus signal should be terminated on the boards that are located at the ends of the CT Bus cable. All other boards should be left in their factory default configuration with the CT Bus termination pins not linked.

To terminate the CT Bus, install a link clip over the pair of P5 pins indicated in the following figure.

Setting Power-off Loopback

Each E1/T1 trunk on the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media can be independently configured for front end loopback when the system is not powered up. As shipped from the factory, power-off loopback is enabled for all trunks. To disable power-off loopback on any trunk, remove the appropriate pair of jumper clips for the trunk as indicated in the

Product Description section.

Setting Boot-up Loopback

The board’s loopback configuration during the boot-up interval (from power-on to completion of download) is set on a board-wide basis by jumper

JP5. As shipped from the factory, the pins of JP5 are not linked (the clip is installed over one pin only), enabling loopback during boot-up. To disable boot-up loopback, install the clip over both pins of

JP5.

4. Choosing a Slot

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board is a full length x1 form factor PCI Express board that requires

25W of power. The following explanation and guidelines are provided to ensure proper configuration of the product.

Power Budgeting is a new feature, introduced in the PCI Express Specification, that provides a mechanism to enable a system to negotiate power consumption requirements for add-in devices.

Per PCI Express Card Electromechanical

Specification Revision 1.0a or higher, a x1 add-in card can draw no more than 10W in a x1 slot unless the board’s required power is successfully negotiated and allocated by the system (power budgeting). However, implementation of power budgeting by a vendor's system is not a compliance requirement per the PCI Express Card

Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0a or higher. Therefore, some chassis may not support this feature. Power Budgeting jumper P10 is designed to ensure proper configuration of the product.

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board must be installed in a slot that can be allocated 25W.

If Power Budgeting is not implemented by a vendor's system, the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board must be plugged into a x4 or higher slot with the P10 jumper in position 1-2 (power budgeting ignored). This is allowed per PCI Express

Card Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0a or higher because a x4 or greater slot must be able to support a minimum of 25W.

If Power Budgeting is implemented by a vendor's system, the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board can be plugged into a x1 slot but the P10 jumper must be in position pins 2-3 (power budgeting adhered to).

WARNING! Installing the DM/V1200BTEPEQ

Media board in a x1 slot with the P10 jumper in position 1-2 will void the warranty of the

DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board.

If the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board will be connected to other telephony boards via a CT Bus cable, you should install the boards to minimize unused connectors on the CT Bus cable (in addition to ensuring that the power requirements are met):

■

■

Install boards in adjacent slots whenever possible.

If the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board will be connected to one or more PCI boards, use the

PCI Express slot(s) closest to the PCI slots.

5. Installing the Board

WARNING! Unplug the equipment before performing the procedures described here.

Failure to disconnect the power before you open the chassis can result in personal injury.

Ensure that the system is disconnected from its power source and from all telecommunications links, networks, or modem lines whenever the chassis cover is removed. Do not operate the system with the cover removed.

CAUTION: To avoid possible damage to the board, remove power from the computer before beginning installation. Observe proper anti-static precautions at all times while handling and installing the board.

To install the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board, perform the following steps:

1. Turn off all power to the system and disconnect the system’s power cords.

2. Remove the computer’s cover.

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

4. Insert the board’s edge connector into the bus slot, and apply firm pressure to the top edge of the board until the board is fully seated in the edge connector.

5. Reinstall the retaining screw.

6. Repeat Step 3 through Step 5 for any additional boards you are installing

7. Connect the telephony boards together with a

CT Bus cable of the appropriate size (not included). If possible, use a cable assembly that matches the number of boards in your system.

If the cable has more than one unused connector, install the cable so that all the unused connectors are at one end of the cable.
