1 Introduction
The range of Dialogic
®
DSI SPCI Network Interface Boards includes
specialized T1/E1 SS7 signaling boards for use in PCI host computer systems.
All boards offer a common interface to the application allowing applications to
be easily ported between hardware architectures. This Programmer’s Manual
relates to the low density Dialogic
®
DSI SPCI4 Network Interface Boards and
Dialogic
®
DSI SPCI2S Network Interface Boards. Each low density board
contains an embedded signaling processor capable of handling up to 4 SS7
signaling links and runs software which is downloaded onto the board at run
time.
The boards provide a suitable hardware platform for running the Dialogic
®
DSI protocol for realizing Signaling System Number 7 signaling nodes. The
boards can be used under any of the following operating systems: Windows
®
2000, Windows
®
XP, Linux and Solaris. Throughout the remainder of this
document the term "Windows
®
" may be used to collectively refer to the
Windows
