The TrueData “Quick Install” guide for Artisoft TeleVantage 5.0 on Windows 2000 Server

 

(Note: If using TeleVantage Small Office Edition, you may use Windows 2000 Professional – the installation procedure is the same)

 

This document is only to be used as a reference and should NOT to be used in place of reading the “Installing TeleVantage” Manual.

 

Step 1 - Hardware Installation

 

Open the server and seat your Dialogic boards in the appropriate slot type (ISA or PCI).  Verify that you have adequate cooling to keep these boards cool.

 

You will notice a knob on each Dialogic board with a number – set your Trunk board to 0 and your station card to 1.  (If you have more than two boards, use 0,1,2,3…etc. starting with your trunk boards).  Each board must be on its own ID.

 

Each Dialogic board has a bus connector (ISA has a 26 Pin, PCI has a higher density connector).  Use the cable included with your station board to connect these boards.  The cable included with your Station board will have 4 connectors. If you only have two boards, you will only use two of those connectors.  All of your Dialogic boards in your system must be connected together using this cable.

 

Your Station card has a 3” power connector on the back of the card – You must connect the Station card power supply (included) when the computer is OFF.

 

Power your server on, and immediately enter your BIOS (usually delete or F1 at the boot screen).  Disable ALL unneeded resources.  Example: COM2, LPT1, secondary drive controller, etc.  Save an exit your BIOS to continue booting.

 

If you are using PCI hardware, Windows will prompt you for a driver – just click “Do not install a driver for this device” and proceed.

  

  

Step 2 – Software Installation

 

We recommend that you have a fresh copy of Windows 2000 Server installed on the system before proceeding.  Be sure to setup your Network settings (computer name, IP address, etc.) BEFORE installing TeleVantage.  If you are not comfortable configuring your Network settings, you should not be using this quick install guide.  You will not be able to change your computer name after installing TeleVantage without going through a lengthy process.  Log onto Windows as "Administrator" with the appropriate password.  If you are thinking of changing your Windows Administrator password, change it NOW.  After installing TeleVantage, changing the Administrator password becomes a process that requires several steps.

Post Installation:

 

When system comes back up, go to Start Menu/Programs/Dialogic System Software and run the Dialogic Configuration Manager (DCM).

This will detect your Dialogic cards.  Make sure that your cards are detected properly at their assigned ID’s, then click the Green button to test start the Dialogic drivers.  You can now close DCM.

 

Go to Start Menu/Programs/Artisoft TeleVantage and run TeleVantage Administrator.  When prompted, enter “100” for the Admin password (this is default).  When the TV Admin opens, go to the Tools menu, then System Settings/Licenses and plug in all of your licenses. 

When finished, click OK. 

 

You may now go to Tools/Start Server to start the TeleVantage server.

 

Note:  When the TeleVantage server service starts, it will automatically start the Dialogic drivers.  If you want TeleVantage to start every time your server boots up, go to your Services (in Control Panel), and set the “TeleVantage Service” to startup type “Automatic”.  You do not have to do anything with the Dialogic driver service.
