Amanda Work Group Installation Manual

							Chapter 2: Installing RDSP/x32 Boards 9
The following table shows how to set the shorting jumpers for each possible 
voice board in Amanda.
Closed means that two pins are covered/connected by the shorting jumper, 
and Open means that the two pins are not covered/connected by the shorting 
jumper. In the diagrams in this chapter, the blacked out pin positions 
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.
Notice that the jumper positions numbered 3 through 7 are always closed 
and that the jumper positions numbered 8 and 9 are always open. You will 
change only the leftmost three jumper positions (those numbered 0, 1, and 2 
in the table).

ShowJump Utility
Brooktrout provides the ShowJump utility which also shows how to 
configure the jumpers on various types of Brooktrout boards. On Amanda, 
this utility is stored in the C:\PLATFORM directory.
To use ShowJump:
1. At a DOS prompt, type:
C:\PLATFORM\SHOWJUMP
The Brooktrout Board Jumper Configuration Utility Screen displays the 
jumper configuration for hex address 300 on boards 2108 and 4108 
(which Amanda does not support).
2. Press Page Down until the board you are interested in is displayed.
3. Then type the hex address and press Enter.
The jumper configuration for the displayed board changes to fit the 
address that you entered.
4. Press Esc to exit.
Installing Voice Boards
After making sure the address for the voice board is correct, you can install 
it.
To install the voice board:
1. If this is a new installation, go to step 2. Otherwise, shut down Amanda 
and turn off the computer:
a. Press Alt+S (if Amanda is running as a standalone) or s (if 
Amanda is running as a voice server).
b. Type in the password. (The default is AMandA with only the 
first two and the last letter capitalized.)
c. Press Enter.

d. Press Y (to confirm the shutdown).
e. Press Y again (to reconfirm).
f. After the DOS prompt C:\AMANDA> appears, turn off the 
power.
2. Remove the computer cover and locate an available slot. A full length 
slot is needed for models 2132 and 4132.
3. Remove the back slot cover and install the voice board. If there is a rear 
card guide, slide the end of the voice board into it properly.
4. Close the computer cover and turn on the power.
C
AUTION:Use an ESD-safe station while configuring and install-
ing your board. Otherwise, static discharge may dam-
age your board. (ESD stands for electrostatic 
discharge.)
Connecting Ports
You create a port by connecting a telephone line to a voice board. Amanda 
can support from 2 to 24 ports. On a Brooktrout voice board with two 
connectors, the top connector represents the first two ports and the bottom 
connector represents the second two ports for a total of four ports per board. 
Each connector on a voice board is an RJ-14 modular jack. The inner pair is 
one port, and the outer pair is the other port.  
						

							Chapter 2: Installing RDSP/x32 Boards 13
Ports are numbered consecutively from 1 to 24. Port 1 is connected to the 
lowest addressed voice board (usually address 300). Each connector on the 
voice board is linked to your telephone switching system by a standard 4-
wire line cord to a standard RJ-14 modular jack which should represent two 
analog (single-line) extensions.

Installing RDSP/RTNI Boards
Installation Checklist
The RDSP/RTNI two-board combination puts all the Digital Signal 
Processors (DSPs, specialized CPUs) on one board and provides an analog 
telephony interface with the other.
You must configure and install each of the following:
 An RDSP/x000 (that is RDSP/4000, RDSP/8000, RDSP/12000, 
RDSP/16000, RDSP/24000) board that provides the DSPs.
 An RTNI-xATI (that is RTNI-4ATI, RTNI-8ATI, RTNI-12ATI, 
RTNI-16ATI, RTNI-24ATI) board that provides an analog telepho-
ny interface.
You must connect the interface board to the RDSP/x000 board using the 
MVIP bus cable, which will transfer voice data between the two boards. The 
connector cable for this is supplied with the board set. Since the RDSP/x000 
board does not provide its own clock, it also receives timing information 
from the bus.
In addition, you must connect the RTNI board to the telephone network.
Follow this checklist or use it to verify that you have completed all the 
necessary steps for connecting Amanda to the telephone switching system.

NOTE:The GetTones and AccuCall Plus utilities cannot define 
dial codes while the RDSP/RTNI two-board combination is 
installed. The utilities do not know how to make MVIP 
connections to the DSP resource in order to dial. The only 
solution is to use a 232 or 432 voice board while you define 
the tones. Then you replace the 232 or 432 voice board with 
the ATI board combination.
Be sure to…
1. Configure an RDSP/x000 board:
a. Configure MVIP Streams
b. Configure the MVIP Termination
c. Configure the Base I/O Port
2. Configure an RTNI-xATI board:
a. Configure the MVIP Termination
b. Configure the Base I/O Port
c. Configure the Line Interface
3. Configure an RTNI-2T1 board:
a. Configure the Base I/O Port
b. Configure the IRQ Jumpers
c. Configure the Line Interface
4. Install the boards
5. Install the MVIP cable
6. Install Amanda software without errors
7. Connect the line cords from the voice boards to the telephone switching 
system
8. Test each voice board port for answering
9. Run Setup to define dial codes
10. Program the telephone switching system for voice mail integration
