Software Requirements

AlphaCom

The AMC-IP board must have software version 10.20 or higher. Latest software version is always recommended. The latest version for AlphaCom can be downloaded here.
The AMC-IP software includes the following software routines:

  • The software daemon (M100d) which is running the M100 format with the AlphaCom XE main software.
  • The software daemon AMCd which is running the AlphaCom XE Main Software
  • The embedded web server which is used to configure AMCd and M100d (AlphaWeb).

M100

The software type and version is not critical as long as it supports 6-digit dialling.
Supported SW:

6U Computer Card LBB 7103/07: SW LBB 7216/83
3U Computer Card LBB 7103/06: SW LBB 7216/83
FC Card LBB 7110/13:          SW LBB 7202/28

Programming Tools

AlphaCom

The programming tool for AlphaCom is AlphaPro software version 10.28 or higher.
Download the latest version here.
AlphaPro is used to identify M100 modules as nodes in the AlphaNet and to configure the AGA audio routing.

M100

The programming tool for M100 is SysMain software version 3.0. It is available on request from alphasupport@zenitel.com.

Audio Link Interface

M100Int 1.PNG
The Audio Link Interface Unit is powered from the M100 module. Solder a 3-wire power cable to the three solder studs labeled +5V, 0V (GND), and -5V on the M100 backplane. Connect the other free end of the cable to a 3-way plug-in screw terminal that connects to the receptor labeled -5V GND +5V at the back of the Audio Link Interface Unit.

Data Connection

AlphaCom

Use a crossed RS232 cable with female 9-pin D-sub connectors at each end to connect the AlphaCom XE7 serial Port 0 to the Audio Link Interface connector labeled AlphaCom RS232.

M100

The M100 system communicates via optical fiber cables. The opto cable (LBB 7103/61) connects from the M100 Computer Card (LBB 7103/05) to the Audio Link Interface Unit. On the Computer Card, connect the opto cable to the connector labeled Module 1 (assuming that the M100 is a single-module system). The other end of the opto cable connects to the receptors labeled M100 Serial - Opto at the back of the Audio Link Interface Unit.

In the menu, click Exchange and select Send data to the exchange M100Int 14.PNG

  • Select Module 0
  • Enable Number list and System parameters
  • Click Send

Adding new module to existing M100 exchange

When there is an existing M100 exchange with modules that are already defined, a new module has to be added before connecting to the Audio Link Interface. In the Update system information window in SysMain, activate a new module by increasing the number of existing modules by one: M100Int 15.PNG
The opto cable connects to the first available output. If no outputs are available, an ACIA card (LBB 7103/56) has to be installed. The ACIA card requires that the exchange is already fitted with the Computer Card (LBB 7103/05).
See M100 documentation for further details.
