The following steps must be completed before attempting to configure the OmniConnect:
•
The ISDN line must be ordered and the SPIDs and Directory Numbers (if
necessary) assigned by the ISDN provider.
•
The ISP login name, password and phone number must be known.
•
The Ethernet 10Base-T network and the ISDN line must be connected to the
OmniConnect access device.
•
The AC adapter must be connected to the OmniConnect access device and
the wall supply.
•
OmniStart must be installed on the PC networked to the
OmniConnect/ISDN access device in accordance with the procedure
described in the following section. In addition, the PC must be connected to
the OmniConnect access device over the Ethernet. It is recommended that
the TCP/IP stack running on the PC be configured to obtain its IP address
from the OmniConnect access device’s DHCP server.

OmniStart installation
Insert the OmniStart CD into the computer’s CD-ROM drive. The Autorun program will start
automatically, and you will be able to run Setup. Otherwise, you may execute the
setup.exe
file on the disk drive from either the
Run
command within the Windows® 95/98/NT
Start
button or by using Windows® Explorer. Follow the instructions on the screen to install the
applications on the computer and to run the configuration application.
Running
setup.exe
installs the OmniStart configuration program, the help file, two terminal
programs for COM1 and COM2 as well as the OmniConnect Monitor application. In
instances where only the monitor or Caller ID functions are necessary on the local computer
only the monitor program is necessary. To install only the monitor application, execute the
monitor.bat
file on the disk drive from either the
Run
command within the Windows®
95/98/NT
Start
button or by using Windows® Explorer. This will install the OmniConnect
Monitor application along with the Caller ID function.
Monitor.bat
should be installed on
every computer where call management and Caller ID functions are required.
