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.

Unpack the Dialogic® DM3 Media Board (“board”) according to the following steps:

1. Prepare a static-safeguarded work area.

2. Carefully remove the board from the shipping

3. Lay the board on the static-dissipative work

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

The Dialogic® DM3 device driver, part of the Dialogic® 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 a board to the system, the existing board instance (ID) numbers may change, depending upon the PCI bus and slot number where the new board is installed.

Windows System

After the Dialogic® hardware and the Dialogic® System Software are installed, refer to the Dialogic Manager (DCM) utility to retrieve the board instance (ID) number(s) assigned to the board(s) in your system.

See the DCM online help for more details about board identification.

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

Installing the Hardware

NOTE: Dialogic recommends that you install Dialogic® hardware before Dialogic® software. However, if you are adding hardware to an existing system, you do not need to uninstall existing Dialogic software.

1. With your computer on the static-safe work area,

switch off the power and disconnect all power cords from the electrical outlets.

2. Remove the chassis cover plate.

3. Select an empty PCI expansion bus slot and remove

the slot’s retaining screw and access cover plate (if applicable).

4. If you are not installing your board in an ISA form

factor PCI slot, remove the ISA edge retainer from the board.

5. Using the slot’s board guides, insert the board edge

connector into the bus slot. Press firmly until the board is securely seated in the slot.

6. Replace and tighten the slot’s retaining screw to

secure the board firmly in the chassis (if applicable).

7. Select a new PCI slot and repeat steps 3-6 for each

board you are installing.

8. Use the CT Bus cable to connect the board(s) you are

installing to other boards in the system.

NOTE: Your system may include both CT Bus and

SCbus boards. To connect both board types, you must install a CT Bus/SCbus Adapter on one of the CT Bus boards in a system. See the CT Bus/SCbus Adapter Quick Install Card for installation details about the Adapter and the bus cables. Contact your Dialogic Sales Representative to order an Adapter.

9. Install CT Bus Termination Jumpers only on boards

located at each end of the CT Bus cable. See Physical Description section.

10. Replace the chassis cover when finished and reconnect

the power cords.

11. Turn the power to the chassis ON.

CAUTION: If your BIOS is set to use Plug and Play

technology and there are ISA boards in your system, an IRQ conflict can be created if the DM3 board is assigned the same IRQ as an ISA board. This could cause the machine to stop responding. You can prevent this by entering the BIOS and reserving the appropriate IRQs (those used by your ISA boards) for ISA use only.
