7 Installation in Windows Me
Installation in Windows Me
AVM no longer provides support for use of the ISDN-Controller
B1 PCI v4.0 with the Windows Me operating system and
there is no further development of the driver software.
The AVM ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v.0 is shipped with drivers
that are especially developed for use in Microsoft
Windows Me. The driver architecture conforms to the Microsoft
Win 32 Driver Model (WDM). This true 32-bit device
driver offers full support for all features of Windows Me.
The CAPI 2.0 supplied with the ISDN-Controller supports
Windows applications and applications in DOS windows at
the same time. Information on CAPI can be found in the section
“The Applications Interface CAPI 2.0” on page 64.
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 number
assigned by your ISDN service provider to each subscriber
interface. SPIDs let the ISDN switch know which ISDN
services a given logical terminal (ISDN device) can access.
This is particularly important for ISDN telephones.
7.1 Installing the Driver Software
Once the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 has been physically installed
in your computer, the next step is to install the driver
software. Proceed as follows:
1. Start Windows Me.
2. Insert the installation CD in your CD-ROM drive.
3. The Windows Me Plug & Play mechanism recognizes
the ISDN-Controller, and the Windows database is updated
with driver information.
4. The Add New Hardware Wizard is started and looks for
drivers for the new device. In the next window, select
the option “Automatic search for a better driver (Recommended)”.
Click “Next”.
