General Safety Instructions
CAUTION
1. The computers that have B100E card installed must comply with
the country’s specific safety regulations.
2. Only service personnel should install B100E card.
3. Before you install B100E card, please unplug the power cord from
the computer and remove the cover from your PC.
4. For avoiding personal injuries and damage to your computer and
B100E card, make sure bracket of the card is secured to the PC’s
chassis ground by fastening the card with a screw.
5. Electrical Surges, ESD are very destructive to the equipment. To
avoid it, make sure there is a low impedance discharge path from
your computer to chassis ground.
6. To reduce the risk of damage or injury, please follow all steps or
procedures as instructed.

Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 What is Asterisk
The Definition of Asterisk is described as follows:
Asterisk is a complete PBX in software. It runs on Linux, BSD, Windows
(emulated) and provides all of the features you would expect from a PBX
and more. Asterisk does voice over IP in four protocols, and can
interoperate with almost all standard-based telephony equipments using
relatively cost-effective hardware. Asterisk provides Voicemail services
with Directory, Call Conferencing, Interactive Voice Response, and Call
Queuing. It supports three-way calling, caller ID services, ADSI, IAX,
SIP, H323 (as both client and gateway), MGCP (call manager only) and
SCCP/Skinny (voip-info.org).

1.2 What is B100E
OpenVox B100E is a PCI-E compliant card which supports 1 BRI S/T
interface. The BRI port can be set to TE or NT mode by jumpers. B100E
S/T BRI interface card delivers great voice quality in the telephony
systems. It can provide 2 simultaneous voices calls over 1 ISDN BRI line,
turns your legacy ISDN BRI equipments into powerful Voice over IP
devices and provides a soft migration path from ISDN technology to the
new Voice over IP world. B100E is designed for building Open Source
systems based on Asterisk such as ISDN PBX and VoIP gateway.
The B100E and drivers comply with fully GPLed for the Linux kernel

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup
There are some points should be paid attention to when setting up B100E.
2.1 Power supply
The board is powered by PCI Express slot, which provides +3.3V or 12V
on PCI-E slot, so it is not need to supply external power source.
2.2 Slot compatibility
B100E is compatible with PCI-E ×1, ×2, ×4, ×8 and ×16 slot. You should
confirm your slot type firstly and then insert B100E into a PCI-E slot as
previously described. Some slots are described like that.
64-bit 5.0V PCI slot
64-bit 3.3V PCI slot
32-bit 5.0V PCI slot
PCI-E slot
32-bit 3.3V PCI slot

2.3 Adjusting Termination of S/T Interface (100 ohm)
You are able to set a port to NT or TE mode, please refer to figure 3 for
visualized information.
If a port works on NT mode, you should set jumper to CONNECT
(ON).
If a port works on TE mode, theoretically it should be set to OPEN
(OFF), but it might connect to some non-standard ISDN terminal
equipments that do not have terminal resistors, for such equipments,
you should set it to CONNECT(ON).

2.4 Hardware setup procedure
Power off your PC, remember to unplug the AC power cable
Insert B100E into a PCI-E slot vertically
Plug ISDN lines into RJ-45 interfaces which set as TE mode and
ISDN phone lines into RJ-45 interface which set as NT mode
Fix the board by a screw
Power on PC
Caution:If need to connect ISDN phone to B100E which
set to NT mode, the phone must have the power supply
function. During the above processes, an ESD wrist strap
is needed. Once power is on, you must not attempt to install or take down
the board. After hardware setup appropriately, it is time to install
software.

Chapter 3 Software Installation and Configuration
B100E supports DAHDI software driver on Linux. To make full use of
B100E, you should download, compile, install and configure DAHDI,
Libpri and Asterisk. Let’s make specific versions for an example to state
how to install software.
3.1 Download

2. Software installation
Some dependencies are crucial. If any of them is absent, the software
installation process would not go through successfully. Let’s run "yum
install XX"(XX stands for the dependency’s name) to check the
availability of dependencies.
# yum install bison
# yum install bison-devel
# yum install ncurses
# yum install ncurses-devel
# yum install zlib
# yum install zlib-devel
# yum install openssl
# yum install openssl-devel
# yum install gnutls-devel
# yum install gcc
# yum install gcc-c++
# yum install libxml2
# yum install libxml2-devel

B100E on DAHDI User Manual
OpenVox Communication Co. LTD. URL: www.openvox.cn
18
If there is no kernel source in the system, you should also
install it by running like:
# yum install kernel-devel
If the dependency has been installed, system will indicate
that nothing to do, which means you could go to next one directly.
Otherwise, the system will keep on installing it.
Change to the directory dahdi-linux-complete-XX (XX represents
DAHDI version), then perform commands one by one to install DAHDI.
# cd /usr/src/dahdi-linux-complete-2.3.0.1+2.3.0
# make
# make install
# make config
Caution: If there is something wrong after "make",
please refer to HERE. In the url link, the moderator
introduces you a method how to patch. After patching,
save your changes and exit. Then run "make"again, if successfully done,
it is time for you to install Libpri and Asterisk.

B100E on DAHDI User Manual
OpenVox Communication Co. LTD. URL: www.openvox.cn
19
Please execute those commands to install Libpri and Asterisk:
# cd ../libpri-1.4.11.5
# make
# make install
# cd ../asterisk-1.8.4.4
# ./configure
# make
# make install
# make samples
"make samples" will install the standard
sample configuration file in the directory /etc/asterisk. As a
freshman, you should perform "make samples", that is
to say, it is unnecessary to perform "make samples"every time.
Because once performed, it will cover the old sample configuration files
you have installed.
