Using ProShare(TM) Video System 200 with NT Repeaters
USING PROSHARE SOFTWARE WITH NT REPEATERS
This document contains information on using the ProShare Video System
200 with NT Repeaters.
Use of this NT emulation card requires some editing of the ProShare
software's Windows initialization files to allow two systems to complete
video/data conferencing calls. After installing the ProShare Video
System 200 to your public switched network specifications, you can
rename the ISDN.INI file in the Windows subdirectory and maintain this
file any time you wish to use the system with your regular ISDN service.
To use two systems with the emulation card, here are two
recommendations:
1. Install the emulation card in a third system to insure
compatibility and reliable usage. Intel has found that installing
the emulation card in one of the two ProShare software systems you
will be using is subject to failure due to the TSR being knocked
out of memory by the ProShare software loading.
2. Have nothing else running on the third system you will be using;
only the Qsource TSR (clean everything else out of memory by
editing your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and your CONFIG.SYS file on the
emulator card system). Be advised that EMM386.EXE in your
CONFIG.SYS file will also affect the NTREP.EXE TSR, so be sure to
either delete it or comment it out using REM.
The ISDN.INI file is located under the Windows subdirectory and should
look like the following:
[ISDN] ;
SwitchType=5ESS
; Manufacturer=AT&T
SharedLine=TRUE
NTTermination=FALSE
TEI=data,auto,phone=#5036964908,termtype=basic,spid=#64908
Don't be alarmed if your switchtype and phone number do not match those
above. The Switchtype will correspond to the switch type you selected
during installation to match your current service providers local
access. The phone number will also match the number your service
provider has provisioned for you. The switch type and number listed
above are simply placeholders for demonstration purposes.
We will call the two ProShare software systems being used with the
emulation system System 1 and System 2. Remember to rename your current
ISDN.INI file to save it for later use. We recommend ISDN.PSN. Before
editing any of the files, make sure that ProShare software notify is
closed and ProShare software is not running. Using Windows Notepad,
edit the ISDN.INI file on System 1 to look like the following:
[ISDN]
; SwitchType=5ESS
; Manufacturer=AT&T
; SharedLine=TRUE
; NTTermination=FALSE
Back2back=NT
TEI=data,auto,termtype=basic
Edit System 2 to look like the following:
[ISDN]
; SwitchType=5ESS
; Manufacturer=AT&T
; SharedLine=TRUE
; NTTermination=FALSE
Back2back=TE
TEI=data,auto,termtype=basic
Connect both systems to the emulation system using your ISDN cables. It
does not matter which port in the emulation card goes to which ProShare
software machine.
Exit and reload Windows, then start ProShare software on each system.
After you see your local video window, you should be able to press the
"return" key on your emulation system keyboard and determine if your
emulation card ports are active and your two ProShare software machines
will be able to call one another.
If both ports show active, you are ready to place a call. You must dial
at least a three digit number to get the other system to acknowledge an
incoming call.
