Overview
This document describes how to install or replace one or more Dialogic
®
PCI or Euro PCI
linecards in a Call Server platform. The information in this document pertains to platforms
running OneBox version 5.0 and later.
Specific information pertaining to each type of linecard is contained within a separate section of
this document for each linecard type. General information about the Dialogic PCI linecard such
as installing the card in the system and installing Dialogic software is located in the section
specific to the required task.
Aastra recommends that you read the section specific to the linecard you are installing, and
then read remainder of the document before disassembling the hardware.
IMPORTANT
Hardware conflicts and configuration issues can occur between hardware devices
installed in a computer platform. Because Aastra sells Dialogic PCI linecards as a kit for
installation in computer platforms that we have not tested, the compatibility of these cards in
your computer platform cannot guaranteed. Aastra can offer troubleshooting advice and
assistance to the best of its knowledge and ability. However, you are ultimately responsible for
resolving all hardware conflicts and configuration issues in the platform.
NOTE
Dialogic ISA linecards are not supported in OneBox versions 5.0 and later. If ISA
linecards are installed in the platform, they must be removed.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning
Computer components are extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). You must wear
an anti-static wrist strap and install the linecard at an ESD-safe workstation. Do not open the
static-protective container until necessary. Before removing the linecard from the static-
protective container, touch the container to a grounded, unpainted metal surface for at least two
seconds (this drains the static electricity from the container and from your body). Turn off and
unplug your computer before removing the case.
Gathering Tools and Equipment
Before you begin disassembling the Call Server platform, verify that you have the following
required tools and equipment:
OneBox Telephony Server DVD
One or more Dialogic PCI or Euro PCI linecards specific to the telephony resources you
are installing
H.100 bus cable to connect multiple PCI cards
New Feature file or License key to add additional lines
Linecord adapters, if necessary
