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 Media 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 Dialogic®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 a board to the system, the existing
board instance (ID) numbers may change, depending upon
the PCI bus and slot number where the new board is
installed.
Windows System
After the Dialogic hardware and the Dialogic 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 so that the Power On
Self Test (POST) for the board(s) can complete
successfully. Use a non-magnetic screwdriver to turn SW1
to 1 of 16 board settings, 0-9 or A-F.
After the Dialogic hardware and Dialogic System
Software are installed, refer to the proper configuration
files to retrieve the board instance (ID) number(s) assigned
to the board(s) in your system. See the Dialogic Software
Installation Guide for Linux for more information about
Linux configuration files.

Installing the Hardware
NOTE: Dialogic recommends that you install Dialogic®
hardware before Dialogic®software. However, if you are
adding hardware to an existing system, you do not need to
uninstall existing Dialogic software.
7. Connect the RJ-48C jacks on the board bracket to the
switch using a digital telephone cross-over cable.

the slot’s retaining screw and access cover plate (if
applicable).
5. Using the slot’s board guides, insert the board edge
connector into the bus slot. Press firmly until the
board is securely seated in the slot.
4. If you are not installing your board in an ISA form
factor PCI slot, remove the ISA edge retainer from
the board.
2. Remove the chassis cover plate.

8. Install the snap-fit ferrite clamp on all of the external
digital telephone cables as close as possible to the
cables’ board connectors.
CAUTION: The ferrite clamp must be installed in
order to meet EMI requirements.
9. Select a new PCI slot and repeat steps 3-8 for each
board you are installing.
10.Use the CT Bus cable to connect the board(s) you are
installing to other boards in the system.
NOTE: Your system may include both CT Bus and
SCbus boards. To connect both board types, you must
install a CT Bus/SCbus Adapter on one of the CT Bus
boards in a system. See the CT Bus/SCbus Adapter
Quick Install Card for installation details about the
Adapter and the bus cables. Contact your Dialogic®
Sales Representative to order an Adapter.
11.Install CT Bus Termination Jumpers only on boards
located at each end of the CT Bus cable. See Physical
Description section.
12.Replace the chassis cover plate when finished and
reconnect the power cords.
13.Turn the power to the chassis ON.
CAUTION: If your BIOS is set to use Plug and Play
technology and there are ISA boards in your system,
an IRQ conflict can be created if a DM3 board is
assigned the same IRQ as an ISA board. This could
cause the machine to stop responding. You can prevent
this by entering the BIOS and reserving the appropriate
IRQs (those used by your ISA boards) for ISA use
only.
