Installation Guide

1. Product Description

The Dialogic

DM/V600BTEPEQ Media Board

(“board”) is a high-density, high-performance,

network interface board with two T1/E1 digital

network interfaces in a full-length PCI Express form

factor.
The DM/V600BTEPEQ Media board includes the

following components, shown in the Physical

Layout illustration:
RJ-48C jacks: Two connectors to T1 or E1 trunks.
General Network Interface Alarm LED:

Indicates when an alarm condition is present on

one or both of the trunks.

Reset LED: Indicates when the board is in the

reset state.

Power LED: Indicates when board power is good.
SW1: Rotary switch used when setting board ID.
JP5: Boot-up Loopback Mode jumper. When

unlinked, all trunks are in loopback mode from

power-on until download completion. Factory

default is loopback enabled (pins not linked, clip

installed over one pin only).

Alarm/status LEDs: During power-up, the 16

LEDs indicate Power-On Self Test (POST) status.

After the board is started, the first two columns

of LEDs indicate status for each trunk. The

green, yellow, and red LEDs indicate normal

operation or Carrier Failure Alarms (CFAs) for

each trunk as shown in the following table, and

the Loopback LED indicates when the respective

trunk is in loopback mode.

Power Budgeting Jumper P10: 3-pin jumper to

set how the board responds to the system power

budgeting function.

■

P10 jumper in pins 2-3: Board adheres to

power budgeting values set by system.

■

P10 jumper in pins 1-2: Board ignores power

budgeting values set by system.

Factory default is P10 jumper in pins 2-3.

CT Bus connector: H.100 telephony bus

connector.

P5: CT Bus termination jumper block. Only the

boards in the end positions of a CT Bus cable

should be terminated. Factory default is

unterminated (clip installed over one pin only).

PCI Express connector: Host bus connector.

Compatible with x1 or larger PCI Express Link

connectors.

Power-off Loopback Mode jumpers: Pairs of

jumpers to set the power-off loopback mode for

each trunk. Factory default is loopback enabled

for all trunks (all pairs of pins linked).

■

JP3X11 & JP4X11: Trunk 1 loopback mode.

■

JP3X12 & JP4X12: Trunk 2 loopback mode.

Additional Information

Additional information about the DM/V600BTEPEQ

Media board is available from a number of sources,

such as via its product data sheet, which is

accessible at

http://www.dialogic.com/products/list.asp.

The product data sheet provides a functional

description of the DM/V600BTEPEQ Media board, as

well as information about its applications,

configurations, features, and technical

specifications.
Refer to the Release Guide and the online Release

Update for your Dialogic

System Software release

to verify that the DM/V600BTEPEQ Media 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 DM/V600BTEPEQ Media 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

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 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.

3. Configuring the Board

The DM/V600BTEPEQ Media board uses Plug and

Play technology to simplify installation. No user

configuration is required for IRQ or memory

address.
The DM/V600BTEPEQ Media board has the

following manually configurable options:

■

Board ID

■

CT Bus termination

■

Power-off loopback mode

■

Boot-up loopback mode

■

Power budgeting (see Choosing a Slot section

below)

Setting the Board ID

When the system is started, each Dialogic

telecom board is assigned a board instance ID

number that programs can use to identify

individual boards in a multi-board system. The

setting of SW1 controls the generation of the

instance numbers.
Windows Systems: In a Windows system, leave

SW1 set to the 0 position (the factory default

setting) on all Dialogic telecom boards. This

setting causes the system software to assign

instance numbers geographically, based on the

bus and slot numbers. Note that there is no way

to know what the instance numbers will be until

the system is started and configured, and the

instance number for any given board is likely to

change when there is any change in the number

or arrangement of boards in the system.
You can read the ID numbers assigned to the

boards in the Dialogic

Configuration Manager

(DCM) tool after you start the system.

Linux Systems: In a Linux system, you must

explicitly specify the board ID numbers by

setting SW1 on each board to a different position

(0-9 or A-F). Refer to the Configuration Guide for

DM3 architecture products in your Dialogic

System Software documentation for further

information about the board ID numbers.

Setting CT Bus Termination

If you are connecting multiple boards via a CT Bus

cable, the bus signal should be terminated on the

boards that are located at the ends of the CT Bus

cable. All other boards should be left in their

factory default configuration with the CT Bus

termination pins not linked.
To terminate the CT Bus, install a link clip over the

pair of P5 pins indicated in the following figure.

Setting Power-off Loopback

Each T1/E1 trunk on the DM/V600BTEPEQ Media

board can be independently configured for front

end loopback when the system is not powered up.

As shipped from the factory, power-off loopback is

enabled for all trunks. To disable power-off

loopback on either trunk, remove the appropriate

pair of jumper clips for the trunk as indicated in the

Product Description section.

Setting Boot-up Loopback

The board’s loopback configuration during the

boot-up interval (from power-on to completion of

download) is set on a board-wide basis by jumper

JP5. As shipped from the factory, the pins of JP5

are not linked (the clip is installed over one pin

only), enabling loopback during boot-up. To disable

boot-up loopback, install the clip over both pins of

JP5.

4. Choosing a Slot

The DM/V600BTEPEQ Media board is a full length

x1 form factor PCI Express board that requires

25W of power. The following explanation and
