Requirements
Before installing the RDSP/x000 board, verify that the host system meets 
each of the following requirements:
 Bus speed is 8 MHz with 0 wait states or 10 MHz with 1 wait state
 Can provide +5v 3.0 A power to the RDSP/x000 board
These requirements are in addition to those for the...

represent closed positions.
T
IP:Installers often place shorting jumpers over only one pin 
when the position is Open. This does not connect the pins, 
but it does prevent losing jumpers.
Understanding MVIP Streams
MVIP is a standard protocol for connecting PC resources. The MVIP bus 
provides both physical and logical half-duplex internal connections for up to 
512 resources.
The MVIP bus is...

During configuration, each resource on the board is mapped to a discrete 
time slot of the stream.
For example, the stream on an RDSP/24000 board automatically maps time 
slots 1, 9, 17, and 25 to RDSP resources to 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The 
port associated with Time Slot 4 has two halves: the input designated DSi4, 
and the output DSo4. The network interface board is the point of reference 
for input and output.

2. The settings should be as shown below:
3. Only the second to last pin position should be closed with a shorting 
jumper. 
C
AUTION:Do not add or remove shorting jumpers while power is 
applied to the board.
Configuring the MVIP Termination
Each RDSP/x000 can terminate the C2 MVIP and C4 MVIP bus signals. In a 
series of boards that are on an MVIP bus, the boards at both ends must 
terminate C2 and C4 while the other boards must not terminate the signals. 
For...

24 Installing [email protected]/DOS
The MVIP termination block consists of two pin positions, one for the C2 
and one for the C4. If you look at the board with the bracket on your right, 
the pin position on the left corresponds to C4 and the pin position on the right 
corresponds to C2. The Amanda Company assumes that you are installing 
only one RDSP/x000 board and, therefore, that it should terminate both 
signals.
To terminate both MVIP bus signals:
1. Find the MVIP termination block on the board.

Configuring the Base I/O Port
Each RDSP/x000 uses 47 I/O ports in addition to its base I/O port. Seven of 
these additional I/O ports are contiguous to the base I/O port. For example, if 
the RDSP/x000’s base I/O port is 300H, then the seven contiguous I/O ports 
are 301H, 302H, 303H, 304H, 305H, 306H and 307H. The RDSP/x000 also 
uses five additional I/O ports offset from the base I/O port and each of its 
seven contiguous I/O ports:
 I/O port plus 400H

CAUTION:Do not add or remove shorting jumpers while power is 
applied to the board.
Configuring an RTNI-xATI Voice Board
An RTNI-xATI board’s main function is connecting any line resource with 
any other line or MVIP resource. This is commonly called switching. Your 
RTNI-xATI board provides Analog-to-MVIP switching. The line resource 
for your ATI board is analog, but only digital PCM signals can be switched, 
so the board must convert the incoming analog signal to...

and Open means that the two pins are not covered/connected by the shorting 
jumper.

Configuring the MVIP Termination
The MVIP termination block consists of two pin positions, one for the C2 
and one for the C4. The top pin position (labeled W1) corresponds to C4 and 
the next pin position (labeled W2) corresponds to C2. 
You should close both pin positions. The Amanda Company assumes that 
you are installing only one RTNI-xATI board along with an RDSP/x000 
board. In this case, this board should terminate both signals.
To terminate both MVIP bus...
