1. Product Description
The Dialogic
®
DN/I601TEPHMP Digital Network
Interface Board (“board”) is a high-density, high-
performance, network interface board in a universal
PCI form factor with two T1/E1 digital network
interfaces. This board is designed to be used with
Dialogic
®
Host Media Processing (HMP) software
(Release 2.0 or higher).
The DN/I601TEPHMP Digital Network Interface
Board includes the following components:
RJ-48C Jacks: Two connectors to a T1 or E1 trunk.
General Network Interface Alarm LED: When lit,
indicates an alarm condition is present on one or
more of the trunks.
Reset LED: When lit, indicates that the board is in
the reset state.
Power LED: When lit, indicates power is on.
SW1: Rotary switch used to set board identification
(Linux system only).
Alarm/Status LEDs: A set of four LEDs for each
trunk. During power-up, the LEDs indicate Power
On Self Test (POST) status. After the board is
started, the green, yellow, and red LEDs indicate
normal operation or Carrier Failure Alarms (CFAs)
for each trunk as shown in the following table. The
Loopback LED indicates when the respective
trunk is in loopback mode.

Refer to the Release Guide and the online Release
Update for your Dialogic
®
Host Media Processing
(HMP) software release to verify that the DN/
I601TEPHMP Digital Network Interface Board is
supported in the release and for information on any
new features or issues that may relate to it.
The Regulatory Notices document that is packed
with each DN/I601TEPHMP Digital Network
Interface Board contains safety warnings and
national requirements for proper operation of
telecommunications equipment.
2. Before You Begin
Protecting the Board from Damage
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.
If you are not familiar with ESD safety precautions,
visit http://dialogic.com/support/hwinstall to learn
more.
Unpacking the Board
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.
Unpack the board according to the following steps:
1. Prepare a static-safeguarded work area.
2. Carefully remove the board from the shipping
carton and static-shielding bag. Handle the
board by the edges and avoid touching the
board's components.
3. Lay the board on the static-safe work surface.
Note: Place boards in static-shielding bags when
carrying boards from station to station.
Configuring the Board
The following can be configured on the board:
■
Board ID
■
CT Bus Termination
■
Power-off Default Front End Loopback
■
Boot Up Default Front End Loopback
Setting the Board ID
The device driver 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
Dialogic
®
Host Media Processing (HMP) software to
recognize the board.
Note: If you add or remove a board, the system
may change the existing board instance numbers,
depending on the PCI bus and slot number where
the board is installed or removed.
In a Windows system, leave SW1 (see Physical
Layout) 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 Dialogic HMP software are installed, refer to
the Dialogic
®
Configuration Manager (DCM) to
retrieve the assigned board instance ID number(s).
DCM is a utility that enables you to add new boards
to your system, start and stop system service, and
work with board configuration data. This utility can
be accessed from the Start menu in the Dialogic
HMP software program folder. For more information
about board identification, see the DCM online help.
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 settings, 0–9 or A–F. After the hardware and
the Dialogic HMP 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
HMP software release documentation.
Setting CT Bus Termination
This section applies if you are using a CT Bus cable
to connect your board to other boards in the system.
Bus signals are terminated when the CT Bus jumper
clip is installed. To terminate bus signals, install a
jumper clip on the pair of CT Bus termination pins
only on boards located at each end of the bus cable.
Factory default is unterminated (jumper clip
removed).
The following figure shows the pair of pins used for
CT Bus termination. Refer to P5 in the Physical
Layout figure for the location of the jumper block.
