2.1 Installing the PC Interface Card
The AVM ISDN-Controller T1/T1-B is connected to
the personal computer through a PC interface card.
The PC interface card is a 2/3-length plug-in adapter for
the ISA or EISA bus slot. For EISA bus architecture
support, the configuration file !AVM0004.CFG is in-
cluded on the DOS driver disk. Please consult your
computer’s manual for further information on installing
hardware components.
Make sure the I/O address 150 is not in use by any
other plug-in adapters in your computer. This is the
default I/O address used by the first PC interface card
you install.
In order to operate several AVM ISDN-Controller
T1/T1-Bs in one computer, you must first assign a
unique number to each PC interface card. Read how
to do this in Section 2.1.1.
Install the interface card as follows:
1. Make sure the PC and any connected peripherals
are turned off and their power cords discon-
nected.
2. Open the PC housing. Touch a bare metal part of
the chassis to discharge any static electricity from
your body.
3. Select an appropriate bus slot, remove the back
slot cover plate and insert the PC interface card in
the slot.
4. Screw the back plate of the PC interface card onto
the PC chassis.
5. Close the computer and plug in the power cord.
This completes the installation of the PC interface card.
