1 Introduction
CAPI
Supported protocols The driver software for the AVM ISDN-Controller A1 is
loaded from the PC’s hard disk and controls the signaling
processes and data transmission, including the simulta-
neous use of both B channels. The software supports the
international D-channel protocol DSS1 (Euro-ISDN) as
well as national protocols like 1TR6. In Microsoft Win-
dows, the protocols 5ESS and NI1 also are supported.
Protocols supported on the B channels include the
common data communications protocols X.75, HDLC
transparent and others.
The AVM ISDN-Controller A1’s driver software pro-
vides the industry standard application interface
COMMON-ISDN-API (CAPI) Version 2.0 (see the Appen-
dix). In Windows 98, Windows 95, Windows NT and
Windows 3.x, this CAPI version also supports applica-
tions based on CAPI 1.1.
This manual describes installation of the AVM ISDN-
Controller A1 hardware and software. This installation
establishes the connection between the computer and
ISDN. Also included in delivery of the Controller are AVM
ISDN-Tools, a collection of CAPI-based applications.
Contact your distributor to purchase any additional CAPI
applications.
