3 Driver Software Installation – Windows NT
3.2 Installation in Windows NT
Specially developed Windows NT driver software is sup-
plied with the AVM ISDN-Controller A1. The applica-
tions interface COMMON-ISDN-API (CAPI) Version 2.0
included with the Controller supports both 16-bit and 32-
bit applications (applications in DOS windows are not
supported, however).
This CAPI driver also allows you to use applications based
on CAPI 1.1. For more information about CAPI, see the
Appendix.
Before installation, check that the Controller has been
installed correctly in the PC. Make sure that the I/O
address set on the Controller is not occupied by any other
hardware in the computer (see Chapter 2, “Hardware
Installation”).
3.2.1 Installing the Driver Software
Proceed as follows to install the driver software:
1. Start Windows NT.
2. Insert the A1-CD in your CD-ROM drive.
3. Open the Windows NT 4.0 Start menu and select the
“Run” command. Enter the path to the setup
program in the command line, e.g.:
CD-ROM:\CARDWARE\A1\WINDOWS.NT\
<Language>\SETUP.EXE
<Language>: Specify the folder with the driver
software for your country (“English” for European
countries or “USA”).
Alternatively, search for the path using the Browse...
button. Confirm your selection by clicking OK.
4. The sign-on screen of the installation program ap-
pears. From this window you can access the current
Controller A1 Readme file. Installation can be
aborted at any time by clicking Cancel. To pro-
ceed, click Continue.
