MultiModemISI Hybrid Series, ISIHI-2S 5
Introduction1
Chapter 1– Introduction
elcome to Multi-Tech’s
new MultiModemISI Hybrid Series, model ISIHI-2S, a multiport hybrid ISDN card for Remote Access Server (RAS) applications. Included on the ISIHI-2S are four V.90/
W
K56flex central site modems for incoming analog modem and fax calls, as well as two terminal adapters. Each terminal adapter appears as two ports to the server PC using the ISIHI-2S. The terminal adapters identify incoming analog calls and route them to the central site modems. The card also supports dial-out applications via the modems or terminal adapters.
The ISIHI-2S card features eight RAS ports using two Basic Rate Interface (BRI) ISDN lines. The eight ports allow a server to accept any combination of analog modem and digital ISDN calls, giving the user the flexibility to customize the settings of the terminal adapters and modems. Since the two BRI lines constitute only four Bearer channels, only four of the eight ports can be active at any one time. The two terminal adapters handle the four B-channels as four independent data connections (see diagram below).

Chapter 1– Introduction
From the perspective of the server PC, the ISIHI-2S is an 8-port serial card with eight devices permanently attached to the serial ports. The first four ports are the two terminal adapters, each of which appear as two ports. The remaining four ports are the four central site modems. The chart below summarizes the correlation of ports and devices.
Port Number Device ISDN Line Number
1TA 1 2TA 1 3TA 2 4TA 2 5 Modem 1 6 Modem 1 7 Modem 2 8 Modem 2
The ISIHI-2S server card is ideal for use in PC network environments because it provides an integrated hardware solution for remote access for both Windows NT and Novell­based LANs. To ensure smooth Novell network integ/ration, the ISIHI-2S ships with a NetWare Loadable Module for NetW are Connect™ communication server that enables it to support state-of-the-art features such as remote dialing and modem pooling. The ISIHI-2S easily integrates into the Windows NT platform since it fully supports Microsoft’s Remote Access Server software, which allows it to operate comfortably with popular network protocols such as TCP/IP and Net BIOS. The ISIHI-2S ships with drivers for other multiuser operating systems such as SCO®UNIX®.
This Owner’s Manual will help you install, configure, test, and use the ISIHI2-S. The manual contains product specifications, installation instructions, and technical support information to assist you in the installation process. This manual is written for audiences with basic PC skills; therefore, step-by-step instructions for basic operations such as logging in and file editing are not included.
Modem Description/Features
ISIHI-2S modems include an Intel 20 MHz 80186 processor and 254K of RAM that work dynamically to allocate resources to the most active modems.
Simple to install, the ISIHI-2S can be used to add multiport, Enhanced V.34 modem communications to a network host or server as easily as plugging in an expansion card, loading the driver software, and connecting the phone lines.
The ISIHI-2S contains four modems, which meet the proposed Enhanced V.34 ITU standard for data signalling rates as high as 33.6/31.2 Kbps full-duplex mode. They support and are compatible with EIA extended Automode, adaptive line probing, automatic symbol rate and carrier frequency during startup, and retrain and rate renegotiation (in 2400 bps increments.)
The ISIHI-2S features CCITT V.42 error correction and V.42bis data compression, providing 100% error-free data transmission. V.42 error correction incorporates MNP Classes 3 and 4 and LAP-M. You can select V.42bis data compression for 4-1 throughput or MNP Class 5 for 2-1 throughput.
MultiModem ISI Hybrid Series, ISIHI-2S 7
Chapter 1– Introduction
ISIHI-2S modems offer interactive automatic dialing as well as Command Mode option configuration. You can store up to ten command line/telephone numbers (up to 60 characters each) in the ISIHI-2S’s nonvolatile memory.
ISIHI-2S modems offer pulse or tone dialing and recognize dial tones and busy signals for reliable call-progress detection. They detect A T&T calling card tones and are FCC­registered for connecting to telephone networks without Data Access Arrangements (DAAs).
They also feature Remote Configuration, which allows you to assist users at remote sites, saving you the time and trouble of site visits and preventing misinterpretation of configuration instructions.
The ISIHI-2S meets the CCITT V.17 standard for sending and receiving faxes. When lined to a compatible fax machine or modem, ISIHI-2S modems can transmit faxes at
14.4 Kbps. They meet the CCITT’s Group 3 Designation for sending and receiving faxes at 9600 bps and Group 2 Designation for sending and receiving faxes at 1800 bps. The ISIHI-2S also is downward-compatible to speeds as low as 300 bps, so you can send and receive faxes with virtually any fax machine in the world.
Terminal Adapter Description/Features
ISIHI-2S terminal adapters have S/T ports to connect to the ISDN network and analog ports to connect to a telephone, modem, or fax machine. They ship with a software configuration utility for Windows® 95, Windows NT, and ConfigMenu (a built-in configuration utility for DOS and Windows 3.x operating systems). The TAs also accept A T commands, enabling them to use the same communications software as analog modems.
ISIHI-2S terminal adapters are compatible with EuroISDN switch protocol. They communicate using ISDN BRI (2B+D) service, which provides up to 128 Kbps data and voice communications. They automatically detect whether an incoming call is voice or data and handle it appropriately.
The ISIHI-2S terminal adapters communicate over public ISDN telephone lines. Features include the following:
• Compatibility with NET3, AT&T 5ESS, NT DMS-100, US National ISDN-1switch protocols
• Automatically detect if incoming call is voice or data
• ISDN BRI (2B+D)
• AT command and S-Register controls and Result Code responses
• Use the same communications software as existing analog modems
• V.120, PPP, or X.75 compatible
• Supports PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) high speed ISDN connections
• Windows NT and Windows 95 software utility and a firmware utility for easy ISDN line configuration
8 MultiModemISI Hybrid Series, ISIHI-2S
Chapter 1– Introduction
• Flash PROM for easy firmware upgrades
• Automatic detection of the data protocol for answering incoming data calls
• Embedded protocol analyzer for troubleshooting the connection to the ISDN network The ISDN TAs provide data communication using Basic Rate Interface (BRI). They
provide two 64 Kbps
bearer
channels for voice or data and one 16 Kbps D channel for
signaling information (2B+D) and are compatible with V.120, PPP , and X.75. The TAs provides dial-up asynchronous communication capability with other personal
computers, terminals, on-line computer services, or other types of computer systems. What is a S/T-Interface? An ISDN Basic Rate (BRI) U-Loop consists of 2 conductors
from the CO (telephone company central office) to the customer premises. Equipment on both sides of the U-loop is carefully designed to deal with the long length of the U-loop and the noisy environment it operates in. At the customer premises, the U-loop is terminated by an NT1 (network termination 1) device. An NT1 (network terminator 1) is a device that provides an interface between the two-wire twisted-pairs used by telephone companies in their ISDN BRI network and an end-user’s four wire terminal equipment. The NT1 drives an S/T-bus that usually is 4 wires but in some cases may be 6 or 8 wires.
The name of the S/T bus comes from the letters used in the ISDN specifications to refer to two reference points, S and T. Point T refers to the connection between the NT1 device and customer supplied equipment. Terminals can connect directly to NT1 at point T, or there may be a PBX (private branch exchange, e.g., a customer-owned telephone exchange). When a PBX is present, point S refers to the connection between the PBX and the terminal.
Note that in ISDN terminology,
terminal
can mean any sort of end-user ISDN device, such as data terminals, telephones, FAX machines, etc. The following diagram reflects interface points in a typical ISDN network.

MultiModemISI Hybrid Series, ISIHI-2S 17
Hardware Installation
Determine Current System Settings
When you install a device into your computer, the processor must have a means of routing information to and from the device, and the device must have a means of gaining the processor’s attention. Input/Output (I/O) addresses route information to and from the device. Interrupt Requests (IRQs) gain the processor’s attention. The ISIHI-2S card requires eight I/O addresses and one IRQ value that are not used by any other device in your system. When selecting a unique base I/O address, be sure the next address also is unused. To determine your system’s current setting, refer to Appendix A and B.
If you are certain these settings are not already in use, continue with the hardware installation. Each card is shipped with the IRQ set at 10 and the base I/O address set at 210 hex. Check your system’ssettings to see if these values can be used. If the defaults are already in use, select a unique IRQ and I/O address and record them below for future reference.
I/O address _____________ IRQ ___________________
Recommended Base I/O Address and IRQ Values
ISIHI-2S Base I/O Address IRQ
Initial 8 port board 210h 10 First 8 port upgrade 220h 11 Second 8 port upgrade 230h 12 Third 8 port upgrade 240h 15
18 MultiModemISI Hybrid Series, ISIHI-2S
Installing the ISIHI-2S
Installing the ISIHI-2S includes setting the I/O address DIP switches and the IRQ jumper . You can skip this this section if you select the default values. Default values are I/O address: 210 hex and IRQ: 10.
1. Before handling the ISIHI-2S, discharge any static in your body by toucing a piece of grounded metal such as the computer chassis.
2. Carefully remove the ISIHI-2S from its anti-static bag, handling it only by the mounting bracket and edges. Do not touch the gold-plated connectors along the bottom edge. (You may want to save packaging for future use.)
3. Visually inspect the ISIHI-2S. If you have any concerns about its condition, call Technical Support at (612) 717-5863.
4. Make sure your computer and any peripheral equipment connected to it are turned off. Failure to do so can damage both the ISIHI-2S card and your PC. You can install the ISIHI-2S in a PC-AT, 386, 486, or Pentium equivalent ISA bus computer.
5. Remove the cover of your computer as instructed in your computer’s documentation.

6. Locate the unused slot you will be using for your ISIHI-2S card and remove the slot cover according to instructions in your computer’s documentation.

Chapter 3—Software/Driver Installation
Introduction
This chapter contains general instructions for software/driver installation the following operating systems:
• Windows NT
• Windows 95
• Novell
• SCO Open Server 5
This guide assumes installers have a thorough knowledge of their operating system and the software installation process; therefore, it does not include every dialaog box or option involved in installing and configuring the drivers.
The ISIHI-2S card ships with software/drivers for Windows NT, Windows 95, SCO Open Server 5, and NetWare Connect (Novell) operating systems. This chapter guides you through the installation of these drivers. The Multi-Tech Installation Script, used in the UNIX operating system, is located on page 55 of this chapter.
