Setting the Initial Hook Switch State (SW1:4)
SW1 switch 4 (SW 1:4 in Figure 2) sets the initial hook
switch state for the DIALOG/4 board. This setting is
active only when the PC is powered on but the firmware
has not yet been downloaded to the board.
If the initial hook switch state is set to on-hook (default)
the board presents an inbound call with a ring no answer
state. You can change the initial hook switch state to off-
hook to present a busy signal instead.
Once the firmware is downloaded, the hook switch state
is set to on-hook, and may only be changed by the
application controlling the board.
It is not necessary to set all DIALOG/4 boards in the
system to the same initial hook switch state
.

Increasing Ring Detection Threshold Behind
a PBX (JP101–JP401)
If a board has problems detecting rings behind a PBX,
you can lower the ring detection threshold. To lower the
threshold on a channel-by-channel basis, install the
jumpers (see DIALOG/4 Physical Description) as
follows:
Channel 1
Channel 2
Channel 3
Channel 4
Jumper JP101
Jumper JP201
Jumper JP301
Jumper JP401
Note: A lower threshold may be too sensitive for
boards connected to the CO and cause false detection of
rings.

n The DIALOG/4 supports two channels per board
jack. Use RJ-14 connectors and cables to access both
channels. If you use RJ-11 instead of RJ-14 con-
nectors and cables, only the jack’s inner channel can
be accessed.
n Connect one end of a phone cable into the board jack
and the other end into a wall jack. One phone cable is
required for each jack.
n A standard telephone will not function when directly
attached to the board jack.
After DIALOG/4 Installation
n Install the voice board software as described in the
documentation provided for the Dialogic software
release and operating system in use.
n Test the boards using D40CHK.EXE or other
diagnostic utilities such as UDD (Universal Dialogic
Diagnostics) that came with the Dialogic software
release for the DIALOG/4.
n For specifications and product information, refer to
the Dialogic On-Line Information Retrieval System,
1-800-755-5599 or 1-973-993-1063.

If you suspect you have a problem board, you can return
the board to Dialogic for servicing. The following
outlines the procedures that make up the Return Material
Authorization (RMA) Process.
1. Check to see if the problem is due to a mistake or
oversight in the installation process. Be sure to run
the diagnostic utility if you have not already done so.
2. Call Dialogic Technical Support at 1-973-993-1443
to confirm that it is a problem board.
3. Call the RMA coordinator at 1-973-993-3000 x6374.
Telephone lines are open from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
EST. Give the board’s serial number (two letters and
six digits—located on a label attached to the board)
and a brief description of the problem to the RMA
coordinator. The RMA coordinator will give you an
RMA number and an estimated return date.
4. While observing correct static-handling procedures,
disconnect power, cables, and remove the board from
the chassis.
5. Repack the board, observing correct static-handling
procedures. Place the board in an anti-static con-
tainer and then put it in a shipping carton using
appropriate packing material. Use the original
shipping materials if possible. Include diagnostic
printouts (for example, D40CHK) when applicable.
6. Write the RMA number on the outside of the box
you are shipping (for example, RMA #2201) and
send the package to the attention of the RMA number
assigned.
7. Ship the board to Dialogic at the following address.
Dialogic is not responsible for risk of loss or damage
in transit.
