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://www.dialogic.com/support/hwinstall to learn more.

Unpacking the Board

Unpack the Dialogic

®

DM3 Fax Board (“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.

Configuring the Hardware

Board Identification

The DM3 device driver, part of the system software, 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 system
software to recognize the board.

NOTE:

If you add or remove a board, the system may

change the existing board instance (ID) numbers.

Windows System

After the hardware and the system software are installed,
refer to the Dialogic

®

Configuration Manager (DCM) utility

to retrieve the board instance (ID) number(s) assigned to the
board(s) in your system.

See the DCM online help for more details about board
identification.

Linux System

In a Linux system, you

must

set SW1 to a unique number for

each DM3 board in your system. Use a non-magnetic
screwdriver to turn SW1 to 1 of 16 board settings, 0-9 or A-F.

Installing the Hardware

NOTE

: You should install the hardware before the system

software. However, if you are adding DM3 hardware to an
existing DM3 system, you do not need to uninstall existing
DM3 software.

2.

Remove the computer cover.
