Before You Begin 

 

CAUTION:  

All computer boards are sensitive to 

electrostatic discharge (“ESD”).  Handle all static-sensitive 
boards and components at a static-safe work area, and 
observe anti-static precautions at all times.

Unpacking the Board 

 

Unpack the Dialogic

®

 DM/V480A-2T1-PCI Media Board 

(“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. 

 

 

Configuring the Hardware 

Board Identification 

The device driver, part of the 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 or remove a board, the system may 

change the existing board instance numbers, depending 
upon the PCI bus and slot number where the board is 
installed or removed. 

Windows Systems

 

Leave SW1 set to the factory default of 0 to let the 
system automatically assign board instance numbers by 
PCI bus slot number. 

After the hardware and the system software are installed, 
refer to the Dialogic

®

 Configuration Manager (DCM) 

utility to retrieve the assigned board instance ID 
number(s). For more information about board 
identification, see the DCM online help. 

Linux Systems 

In a Linux system, you 

must

 set SW1 to a unique 

number for each installed board. Use a non-magnetic 
screwdriver to turn SW1 to one of 16 board ID settings, 
0–9 or A–F. 

After the hardware and the system software are installed, 
refer to the proper configuration files to retrieve the 
assigned board instance ID number(s). For more 
information about Linux configuration files, see the 
Dialogic

®

 System Software documentation. 

 

Installing the Hardware 

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 computer cover. 

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
