The AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 is shipped with driv-
ers that are especially developed for use in Microsoft
Windows 7, which can also be used in Windows Server
2008. The CAPI 2.0 applications interface supplied sup-
ports both 32-bit and 64-bit applications (Windows 7
x64 Edition). Applications in DOS windows are not support-
ed. Information on CAPI can be found in the section “The
CAPI 2.0 Application Interface” from page 66.
Windows 7 itself includes a version of the driver software
for the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0. Windows 7 installs this
automatically. Once the automatic installation is complete,
install the current driver software from the installation CD.
US only: In addition to the D-channel protocol, ISDN
users in the USA must find out their SPID.
SPID stands for Service Profile IDentifier. A SPID is a num-
ber assigned by your ISDN service provider to each sub-
scriber interface. SPIDs let the ISDN switch know which
ISDN services a given logical terminal (ISDN device) can
access. This is particularly important for ISDN tele-
phones.
AVM continuously extends the functionality of the driver
software for your ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0. If a more cur-
rent version of the driver software is available, it may be ob-
tained from the ADC under CARDWARE\B1_PCI\
WINDOWS.7\ENGLISH.
3.1 Installing the Driver Software
Once the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 has been installed in
your computer, it will be recognized automatically as a Plug
& Play device.
The CAPI 2.0 interface and the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver
are available on your system. For details about the AVM
ISDN NDIS WAN CAPI Driver and the other two AVM system
drivers, see the section “The AVM System Drivers” from
page 69.
