2ALL ABOUT FRITZ!CARD

With FRITZ!Card, AVM offers an integrated communications

package which makes the advantages of I DN available to you:

a high transfer rate, rapid establishment of connections, opti-

mum line quality and maximum operational reliability.

FRITZ!Card consists of several different components:

•The AVM I DN Controller FRITZ!Card with the associated

driver software. FRITZ!Card provides the connection

between the I DN and application programs on the

computer, for example FRITZ! and other CAPI applications.

You have the facility to install FRITZ!Card in Windows 95, Win-

dows NT 4.0 (Workstation i386) or Windows 3.x. For further in-

formation, please refer to the relevant sections.

•The FRITZ! Windows software, a compact and powerful I DN

communications program. The CD contains both the 16-bit

version of FRITZ! and also the 32-bit version for Windows

95 and Windows NT.

• The AVM I DN CAPI Port Driver and the AVM NDI WAN CAPI

Driver. These drivers enable the I DN integration of operating

system functions under Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0.

They permit utilization of “Remote Access ervice” (RA ) and

allow you to connect your computer to the server of an

Internet provider by way of the TCP/IP stack and the Dial-Up

Networking application of Windows 95 and NT.

For further information about the conception, deployment op-

portunities and environment prerequisites for the AVM system

drivers, please refer to Chapter 4 “Onto the Internet with

FRITZ!Card”.

2 All about FRITZ!Card

2.1 What Does FRITZ!Card Require?

The following requirements must be met before you can oper-

ate the AVM I DN Controller FRITZ!Card in your computer:

• Your computer must have a free 8-bit or 16-bit plug-in slot

because FRITZ!Card is designed as a plug-in card for

computers with a PC/AT bus system. If both types of slot are

available, you should insert FRITZ!Card into the 16-bit slot.

• Find out which protocol is provided on your I DN line by the

I DN network operator. Connections employing the D 1 or

1TR6 protocol are possible. Connections installed

subsequent to 1994 are generally D 1 connections (Euro-

I DN connections).

• An IBM or 100% compatible computer with a hard disk and a

CD-ROM drive.

• Microsoft Windows 3.x for installation of the 16-bit version

of FRITZ!.

• Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 (Workstation i386)

for installation of the 32-bit version of FRITZ!.

• If you intend to use the functions CAPI SoftModem V32 for

fax receiving and CAPI SoftCompression X75/V42bis (see

page 8) for data compression, we recommend a computer

with a Pentium processor and a minimum 16 MB of RAM.

If all these requirements are met, you can install FRITZ!Card.

FRITZ!Card and the software supplied with it have been developed

as a single workstation solution and are intended exclusively for the

connection of an individual PC to the ISDN.

2 All about FRITZ!Card

2.2 How Does FRITZ!Card Work?

FRITZ!Card simply plugs into a free slot on the PC/AT bus. It is

connected to the I DN basic connection via the 0 interface on

the FRITZ!Card. This interface is connected to the I DN con-

nection by means of the supplied cable.

The driver software associated with FRITZ!Card is loaded from

the hard disk upon starting Windows. It controls the commu-

nication and data transfer processes, for example the simul-

taneous use of the B channels.

FRITZ!Card supports Version 2.0 of the standardized interface

COMMON-I DN-API (CAPI). Programs from other manufacturers

based on CAPI 2.0 can also be used with FRITZ!Card. This CAPI

version also allows you to work with CAPI 1.1 applications.

FRITZ!Card simultaneously processes both channels of an I DN

basic connection (2 x 64000 bits/s). Its small dimensions also

make FRITZ!Card ideally suited for use in small housings.

FRITZ!Card is a PC plug-in card which uses passive technology,

i.e. there is no processor on the card. All computing operations

are performed by the processor in the PC.

Functions of the driver software

The driver software with CAPI 2.0 processes the D channel pro-

tocols of the I DN connection and makes all the requisite B chan-

nel protocols (X75, HDLC etc.) available to the applications. In

addition, CAPI 2.0 offers the oftCompression X75/V42bis,

oftModem and oftFax performance features.

The driver software for FRITZ!Card supports data compression

as per V.42bis for X.75 connections in accordance with the CAPI

standard. The connection times and costs can be considerably

reduced when using this type of data compression on account

of faster transfer rates. Data compression is activated or deac-

tivated at the request of your I DN application, e.g. by

FRITZ!data.

In addition to the digital performance features, you can utilize

analog services such as Group 3 Fax (CAPI oftFax G3) and Mo-

dem (CAPI oftModem V32) with FRITZ!Card.

SoftCompression

X75/V42bis

SoftFax

2 All about FRITZ!Card

The current driver software allows you to use FRITZ!Card with

all CAPI-based Windows fax applications. The controller supports

the sending and receiving of faxes at a rate of up to 14400 baud.

It behaves like a Group 3 fax machine.

FRITZ!Card additionally offers the CAPI oftModem perfor-

mance feature. On the basis of this modem emulation, it is pos-

sible to establish a connection from an I DN connection to ana-

log remote parties which are connected to the telephone net-

work via a modem.

Refer to the readme file for further details about the aforementioned

performance features CAPI SoftCompression, CAPI SoftFax and CAPI

SoftModem.

2.3 Freedom for Your Connection

FRITZ!Card enables you to establish connections with various

services and other parties. The basic principle for successful con-

nections and transfer operations is: The other party must have

a terminal device which is either of the same type or is compat-

ible.

The current standards are listed in the following:

Internet

In order to dial an Internet provider using the Dial-Up Network-

ing application of Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0, you use

the PPP over I DN protocol (synchronous PPP) with the I DN

AVM CAPI Port Driver or the AVM NDI WAN CAPI Driver. For

further information, please refer to Chapter 4 “Onto the Internet

with FRITZ!Card”. Windows 3.x users are recommended to dial

in through a 16-bit client of an online service provider. Further

information about settings and applications can be obtained

from your service provider.

Online services

In order to dial online services you require the access software

for a service provider. Further information about installation and

SoftModem

2 All about FRITZ!Card

configuration of the application can be obtained from your ser-

vice provider.

ISDN file transfer

For I DN file transfer you use FRITZ!data with the IDtrans or

Eurofile transfer protocols. The use of V.42bis data compres-

sion on both sides optimizes the transfer rate.

Group 3 fax

For faxing to devices with the Group 3 fax standard, the fax emu-

lation is generated in the CAPI driver. The user-friendly and prac-

tical FRITZ! module FRITZ!fax is recommended as the fax ap-

plication.

After installation of the AVM I DN CAPI Port Driver, you can also

carry out fax operations using the virtual modem AVM ISDN FAX

(G3). Other fax applications offering CAPI 2.0 support can simi-

larly be used.

Voice

The FRITZ!vox I DN answering machine is supplied in order to

utilize the voice functions of FRITZ!Card. In addition to this, you

can use telephony software from other vendors offering CAPI

2.0 support.

ISDN BBS systems

FRITZ!com with the B channel setups for the X.75 and V.110 pro-

tocols is available to you for dialing I DN BB systems. Alter-

natively, after installation of the AVM CAPI Port Driver you can

also use the modem AVM ISDN BBS (X.75) to dial I DN BB

systems, or use terminal programs from other vendors.

Analog BBS systems

You can use FRITZ!com with the B channel setup “Modem Ana-

log” for dialing analog BB systems. Alternatively, after instal-

lation of the AVM CAPI Port Driver you can also use the modem

AVM ISDN Analog Modem (V.32) to dial analog BB systems,

or use terminal programs from other vendors.
