1. Product Description
The Dialogic ® D/120JCT-LSU combined media
board (“board”) is a 12-port analog telecom board in
a PCI form factor with universal connectivity
(support for both 5 V and 3.3 V signaling). The D/
120JCT-LSU is well suited for advanced
communications applications that require
multimedia resources. This high-performance,
scalable product supports voice, fax, and software-
based speech recognition processing in a single
PCI slot, and provides 12 analog telephone interface
circuits for direct connection to analog loop start
lines.
The physical features of the D/120JCT-LSU board
include the following:
SW100: Rotary switch used to determine board ID
SW1: Slide switch for on/off hook on power up
J1-J6: RJ-14 connectors, two analog telephone
lines per connector
Additional Information
Additional information about the D/120JCT-LSU is
available from a number of sources.
The product data sheet, available at http://
www.dialogic.com/products/list.asp, provides a
functional description as well as information about
applications and 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 D/120JCT-LSU 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 D/120JCT-LSU 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.
3. Configuring the Board
The D/120JCT-LSU board uses Plug and Play
technology, including hardware auto-configuration
for IRQ and memory address. This allows you to use
the factory default hardware settings for quick
installation and operation of the board.
In addition to the automatically configured items, the
D/120JCT-LSU board has two manually configurable
options, which are described in the following
sections:
■ Board ID
■ Hook-switch state at start-up
Setting the Board ID
When you start Dialogic ® boards, each board is
assigned an identification for use by the application
program. The board number is based on the board
ID that is set through hardware switches on the
board (rotary switch SW100).
Set the board ID switches to select the board
sequencing method as follows.
Geographical Sequence (by PCI Bus and Slot
Number) Board ID 0 (factory default): All
Dialogic ® PCI boards can share the factory
default setting of board ID 0; in this case, board
numbers are assigned in ascending order based
on the PCI bus and slot number. If you add a
board to the system, it could change the board
numbering, depending upon the PCI bus and slot
number where you install it. Also, PCI boards that
use ID 0 for the geographical numbering
sequence will be numbered before boards that
use board IDs 1-9, A-F. The geographical method
is not available for ISA bus telecom boards.
Programmable Sequence (by Board ID): Board
IDs 1-9, A-F: In addition to the geographical
assignment method, the programmable
assignment method can be used to further identify
the boards in your system. If you change the
board ID from the factory default of 0 to any other
number, the software will use that setting to
identify the board. This method is also used for all
ISA bus boards.
CAUTION: When not set to 0 to use the
geographical sequence method, each PCI board
must be set to a unique ID number. The ID setting
must not conflict with the board ID of any other Intel
ISA or PCI telecom board which has been manually
assigned.
Precedence in Mixed Systems: In systems using
both board numbering methods, or where both
ISA and PCI boards exist in the same system, PCI
boards take precedence and will be numbered
before an ISA bus board that uses a specific
board ID (1-9, A-F).
Setting the Hook-Switch State for
Start-Up (Optional)
Slide switch SW1 determines how the D/120JCT-
LSU board responds to an incoming call when the
PC power is on, but the board is not yet initialized.
With SW1 set to the ON position, the D/120JCT-LSU
board responds as off-hook while unititialized; with
SW1 set to the OFF position, the board responds as
on-hook.
4. Installing the Board
CAUTION: These procedures assume familiarity
with the general terminology associated with
electronic equipment and with the safety practices
and regulatory compliance required for using and
modifying electronic equipment.
These procedures should be performed only by
qualified technical personnel.
WARNING! Unplug the equipment before
performing the procedures described here.
Failure to disconnect the power before you open
the chassis can result in personal injury. Ensure
that the system is disconnected from its power
source and from all telecommunications links,
networks, or modem lines whenever the chassis
cover is removed. Do not operate the system
with the cover removed.
CAUTION: To avoid possible damage to the board,
remove power from the computer before beginning
installation. Observe proper anti-static precautions
at all times while handling and installing the board.
Install each board in the PC chassis using adjacent
PCI slots according to the following instructions.
1. Turn off all power to the system, and disconnect
the system's power cords from electrical outlets.
2. Remove the PC cover.
3. Select an empty PCI expansion bus slot, and
remove the slot's retaining screw and access
coverplate.
