1 The AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0
The AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 is an active ISDN-Con-
troller, which means that the controller is equipped with its
own processor. It processes both B channels of an ISDN ba-
sic rate interface at the same time (2 x 64,000 Bit/s). It owes
this extraordinary power to the Strong T Multitasking RISC
Processor (50 MIPS), which makes this ISDN-Controller the
ideal platform for software applications with high demands
on system stability and data transfer rates. No additional
burdens are placed on the main memory and processor of
your computer by ISDN-based communication tasks.
Computer with AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0
As the above figure shows, the ISDN-Controller is simply
plugged into a free slot on the PCI bus. The ISDN-Controller is
connected to the ISDN line over the S0interface on the con-
troller. This interface is connected to the ISDN line using the
cable included in the product package.

The Driver Software of the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0
8ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 1 The AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0
1.1 The Driver Software of the ISDN-Controller
B1 PCI v4.0
The driver software takes control of the communications pro-
cesses and data transmission.
The driver software is loaded to the ISDN-Controller from the
hard disk. This procedure ensures that the driver software
can be updated quickly and easily at any time.
The driver software can compress data according to the
V.42bis standard. For more information about automatic da-
ta compression, see the section “CAPI
SoftCompression X75/V42bis” on page 69.
The driver software also supports the analog Fax G3 service.
For details, see the section “CAPI SoftFax” on page 70.
CAPI (COMMON-ISDN-API)
The driver software for the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 pro-
vides the industry standard CAPI 2.0 applications interface
on your computer. This interface specified by the internation-
al standardization organization ETSI guarantees the univer-
sal exchangeability of ISDN applications for the use of data,
fax and speech transmission. This interface allows the ISDN-
Controller B1 PCI v4.0 to be used with a wide range of
CAPI 2.0-based ISDN applications.
For more information about CAPI 2.0, see the section “The
Applications Interface CAPI 2.0” on page 64.
Protocols Supported
The driver software supports the international D-channel
protocol DSS1 (Euro ISDN) as well as the national protocols
5ESS, NI1 and 1TR6.
The drivers for the various D-channel protocols are included
in the software package. Current drivers may be downloaded
from the AVM Data Call Center (ADC) or from the Internet. See
the section “Product Documentation” on page 79 for infor-
mation about how to reach the ADC or AVM’s Internet site.

ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 3 Installation in Windows Vista 13
3 Installation in WindowsVista
The AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 is shipped with drivers
that are especially developed for use in Microsoft
Windows Vista. The CAPI 2.0 applications interface supplied
supports both 32-bit and 64-bit applications (Vista
x64 Edition). Applications in DOS windows are not support-
ed. Information on CAPI can be found in the section “The Ap-
plications Interface CAPI 2.0” on page 64.
Windows Vista itself includes a version of the driver software
for the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0. Windows Vista installs

US only: In addition to the D-channel protocol, ISDN us-
ers in the USA must find out their SPID.
SPID stands for Service Profile IDentifier. A SPID is a number
assigned by your ISDN service provider to each subscriber in-
terface. SPIDs let the ISDN switch know which ISDN services
a given logical terminal (ISDN device) can access. This is par-
ticularly important for ISDN telephones.
AVM continuously extends the functionality of the driver
software for your ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0. If a more cur-
rent version of the driver software is available, it may be ob-
tained from the ADC under CARDWARE\B1_PCI\

US only: In addition to the D-channel protocol, ISDN us-
ers in the USA must find out their SPID.
SPID stands for Service Profile IDentifier. A SPID is a number
assigned by your ISDN service provider to each subscriber in-
terface. SPIDs let the ISDN switch know which ISDN services
a given logical terminal (ISDN device) can access. This is par-
ticularly important for ISDN telephones.
AVM is continuously developing the driver software for the
the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0. If a more current version of
the driver software is available, it may be obtained from the
ADC under CARDWARE\B1_PCI\WINDOWS.XP\ENGLISH.

Installing the Driver Software
ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 4 Installation in Windows XP / Server 2003 17
4.1 Installing the Driver Software
Once the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 has been installed in
your computer, it will be recognized automatically as a Plug
& Play device. Use the Found New Hardware Wizard to con-
figure the ISDN-Controller for operation. To do so, proceed as
follows:
The following dialogs are part of the Windows XP operating
system. Consult the Windows XP manual wherever neces-
sary.
1. Start Windows XP.
2. The Windows XP Plug & Play mechanism automatically
recognizes the ISDN-Controller as the “AVM ISDN-Con-
troller B1 PCI”.
3. The “Found New Hardware Wizard” is started. Confirm
with Next.
4. First specify the D-channel protocol to be used: DSS1
(Euro ISDN), NI1, 5ESS or 1TR6 (obsolete). Confirm with
“Next”.
5. Enter the desired multiple subscriber numbers in the
“Phone Number and SPID Information” window.
The settings performed are relevant only for the NDIS
WAN CAPI Driver (Internet, RAS over Dial-Up Network-
ing).
6. Confirm with “Next” and finally with “Finish”.
A message appears stating that you may start operation of
the ISDN-Controller immediately. This completes the initial
driver software installation for the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI
v4.0 in Windows XP.
Once the driver installation is concluded, the second step is
to update the driver software from the installation CD.
We recommend installing the current driver software from
the installation CD or the ADC.

Installation in Windows 2000
ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 5 Installation in Windows 2000 21
5 Installation in Windows 2000
The AVM ISDN Controller B1 PCI v4.0 is shipped with drivers
that are especially developed for use in Microsoft
Windows 2000. The CAPI 2.0 interface supplied supports
both 16-bit and 32-bit applications. Applications in DOS win-
dows are not supported. Information on CAPI can be found in
the section “The Applications Interface CAPI 2.0” on
page 64.
Windows 2000 itself includes an older version of the driver
software for an older hardware version. Windows 2000 in-
stalls this automatically. Once the automatic installation is
complete, install the current driver software from the instal-
lation CD.
US only: In addition to the D-channel protocol, ISDN us-
ers in the USA must find out their SPID.
SPID stands for Service Profile IDentifier. A SPID is a number
assigned by your ISDN service provider to each subscriber in-
terface. SPIDs let the ISDN switch know which ISDN services
a given logical terminal (ISDN device) can access. This is par-
ticularly important for ISDN telephones.
AVM continuously extends the functionality of the driver
software for your ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0. If a more cur-
rent version of the driver software is available, it may be ob-
tained from the ADC under CARDWARE\B1_PCI\
WINDOWS.2K\ENGLISH.
