Installing via a UP0/E PCI Card with Handset Cradle and Handset
The UP0/E PCI card is a state-of-the-art, plug-in PCI card that allows you to connect a PC to your communication platform as though it were a system telephone. This means that you can also perform all switching functions from the PC.
For installation, the card requires a virtual COM port, an interrupt (IRQ) and an I/O address. Because the card is a PCI card, the system automatically assigns it the interrupt and the I/O address.
The virtual COM port is a COM port installed over and above your existing COM ports by means of the supplied software. This virtual COM port has no external port. Normally, the software configures the virtual COM port as COM3 because most PCs are equipped with two COM ports. However, you can also change it to COM4 if COM3 is already being used.
Installation Procedure
| 1. |
Make sure that the product package contains all of the following items: |
 |
One UP0/E PCI card |
|
One handset cradle with line cord to UP0/E PCI card |
|
One handset with line cord to handset cradle |
|
One driver disk for UP0/E PCI card |
|
One installation CD-ROM for optiClient Attendant |
|
optiClient Attendant User and Installation manual |
| 2. |
Disconnect the PC from the power supply network and open the housing (also refer to operating instructions from PC manufacturer). |
| 3. |
Select a free, long PCI slot and remove its cover from the housing back panel (also refer to operating instructions from PC manufacturer). |
| 4. |
Before installing the card, create a ground connection by touching the computer housing; this is necessary because the card is highly sensitive to static electricity. |
| 5. |
Remove the UP0/E PCI card from its antistatic case; plug it into the selected PCI slot and secure it in place (also refer to operating instructions from PC manufacturer). |
| 6. |
Connect the UP0/E PCI card to the communication system as described under PIN assignments  . |
| 7. |
Connect the handset and, if applicable, the headset to the handset cradle and connect the handset cradle to the UP0/E PCI card as described under PIN assignments . |
| 8. |
Close the PC and reconnect it to the power supply network.
The yellow LED on the UP0/E PCI card must flash in one-second intervals |
| 9. |
Start your operating system.
The operating system informs you that new hardware has been found (Multimedia PC Card) and asks you to install the drivers for the UP0/E PCI card. |
| 10. |
Insert the disk (or CD-ROM) with the drivers and enter the path to the file with driver information (pcipcvf.inf) (for example: a:\).
The drivers are copied to your Windows system directory and startup of the operating system is resumed. |
| 11. |
Once the drivers have been copied, check whether the card is correctly installed in your system: |
|
From the Start menu, select Settings and then Control Panel. |
|
Double-click the System icon and click the Device Manager tab.
The additional, virtual COM3 port must be configured under Ports (COM & LPT). If COM3 is already being used on your PC, you must change the virtual COM port from COM3 to COM4 |
|
Under the Device Manager tab, open the Computer icon. Check whether an interrupt and I/O address were assigned to the UP0/E PCI card using the Interrupt request (IRQ) and Input/output (I/O) options. |
| 12. |
Install the optiClient Attendant software . |
Changing COM3 to COM4
| 1. |
From the Start menu, select Settings and then Control Panel. |
| 2. |
Double-click the System icon and click the Device Manager tab. |
| 3. |
Double-click the System devices icon. |
| 4. |
Select the UP0/E PCI card and click the Properties button. |
| 5. |
Open the UP0/E PCI card properties window. Under the Status tab, click the Service Information button. |
| 6. |
Enter the system code 77777 and confirm your entry. Another window opens in which you can change COM3 to COM4. |
| 7. |
Confirm your entry and restart your operating system to apply the changes. |
Uninstalling the Drivers
If you need to uninstall the UP0/E PCI card drivers:
| 1. |
From the Start menu, select Settings and then Control Panel. |
| 2. |
Double-click the System icon and select the Device Manager tab. |
| 3. |
Select the UP0/E PCI card and click the Remove button. |
| 4. |
In the next window, click OK to confirm. |
Updating the Drivers
If an updated driver version exists for the UP0/E PCI card, your system administrator can update your system without having to change the hardware or software. The following drivers must be copied from the update disk or update CD-ROM to your Windows system directory
(e.g.: c:\windows\system):
|
compcvf.vxd |
|
pcipcvf.vxd |
|
pcvfprop.dll |
This overwrites any earlier driver versions. The updated drivers are not valid until you restart Windows.
Pin Assignments
Two 8-pin and two 6-pin modular phone jacks are located on the back of the UP0/E PCI card:
 |
Jack SYS (8-pin): Connection to the communication system |
|
Jack HA (8-pin): Port for handset cradle and handset |
|
Jack OUT (6-pin): Port for external recording equipment |
|
Jack IN (6-pin): Not used |
In addition, one yellow LED and one red LED are on the back of the card to indicate the following UP0/E PCI card statuses:
|
Red LED illuminated: Card error |
|
Yellow LED flashing: Card in operation |
|
Yellow LED illuminated: Data being transferred between card and communication system |
