The Driver Software of the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0
10 ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 1 Introduction
Operating Systems Supported
The CAPI driver software for the AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0
is available for all operating systems for which a CAPI 2.0 stan-
dard is defined at the time of printing this manual: Windows XP
64-Bit Edition (Itanium/ia64) / Windows XP for 64-Bit Extended
Systems (x64/AMD64/EM64T), Windows XP, Windows Me, Win-
dows 2000, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 95, Windows
3.x, DOS, Novell NetWare 6.x, 5.x, 4.x and 3.12, OS/2 and Linux.
Instructions for installing the driver software in Windows 3.x and
DOS can be found in the corresponding Readme files, located in
the folders CARDWARE/WINDOWS.3.XX or CARDWARE/DOS on
the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 installation CD.
Applications without CAPI Support
The controller package includes three AVM system drivers: the
AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver, the AVM NDIS WAN Driver and the
TAPI Services for CAPI. These system drivers allow you to use
CAPI-based ISDN applications alongside communications pro-
grams that do not have built-in CAPI support. For example, you
can use Microsoft’s Dial-Up Networking to connect your com-
puter to the Internet or to access remote servers.
For detailed information about the AVM system drivers, see
the section “The AVM System Drivers” on page 77.
Combining Multiple ISDN-Controllers
Combining multiple active AVM ISDN-Controllers in one com-
puter presents no problems. Up to four active AVM ISDN-
Controllers can be operated at the same time. It is also pos-
sible to equip the computer with a combination of B1 ISDN-
Controllers for the PCI, ISA and PCMCIA buses and the USB,
or to combine the B1 with the AVM ISDN-Controller C4 or C2.
Such configurations make it simple to meet growing ISDN
communication needs.
Downward Compatibility with the AVM B1 Family
The Multitask RISC Processor StrongT developed by AVM
makes the AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 fully compatible
with all earlier controller versions from the AVM B1 family.
