Before You Begin... Follow these instructions in the order given to properly set up your DigiVoiceXE system. If you have questions about the installation or operation of this product, telephone a Davacord technician at 1-800-311-3194 between 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. CST. Before proceeding, refer to the System Requirements section on the DigiVoiceXE CD to verify what operating systems we support. Depending on your operating system, the images shown in this document may be slightly different from what you see. Your box (CPU) may also be different from the ones shown in this document. You must have the latest Microsoft updates and Internet Explorer Service Packs installed on your system before continuing. We also recommend that you monitor the Microsoft web site for updates that are appropriate for your system. IMPORTANT: Regular back up procedures enable you to quickly recover data after a power failure or other serious incident and allows you to permanently store data after your system reaches storage capacity. We strongly encourage you to evaluate your organization s backup and recovery needs to determine what tools and procedures to implement at your organization. After completing the steps in this guide and before placing your system in operation, read the section titled Backing up Data on page 61. Please note: For consistent and accurate results when changing the licensing on a DigiVoice system (3.0 and greater), you will need to restart the following: Worldwide Web Publishing Service, data service, all recording services. Pika, Windows, Microsoft, CyberTech and other products and manufacturers listed in this document are trademarks of the respective companies. 7
Common Sense Wiring Failure to follow these recommendations can cause unsatisfactory performance on your system (i.e., interference and/or static in line, dropped calls, etc.). Do NOT run telephone wiring next to power lines. We recommend at least 3 feet of separation between phone lines and power lines. Do NOT locate telephone and electrical receptacles (plug ins) at the same location on the wall. We recommend at least 3 feet of separation between the two. Do NOT coil a telephone line and lay it behind a monitor. Do NOT bundle power cords with amphenol cables or phone cables. Do NOT punch down when switch is on. Do NOT run phone lines over fluorescent lighting in ceiling. IMPORTANT: Place the recording server at least 6 feet away from your switch or other source of electromagnetic interference. Place your system server(s) in an environment that is free of dust, smoke, humidity, excessive vibration, magnets, and static electricity. Avoid temperature extremes and provide adequate ventilation. We recommend using a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) for your server(s). Never place covers and/or other objects on server cases. Failure to follow these recommendations may void your warranty! 8
Network Considerations When utilizing more than one recording server, we recommend a dedicated switch for communications between the DigiVoiceXE servers. Figure 1: Network Considerations IMPORTANT: Using Device Manager, select your Network Adapter and right-click to view Properties. On the Advanced tab, use the drop-down box to set the appropriate value. 9

Maximum T1/E1 Pika Tap Distance As noted below, the maximum distance we recommend when tapping a line is 30 meters (with Pika). Depending on conditions, your distance may vary. For T1 cards, there is a Line Build out option in Pika setup. Line Build out consists of a Short Haul and Long Haul range as shown in the diagram. The C.O. will determine if you need to adjust the Long Haul parameters (db s). If you are connecting to an external CSU, you may have to set the Short Haul parameter (feet), depending on the distance to the CSU. E1 does not have a Line Build out option in Pika Setup. The C.O. will ensure the signal you receive is a good signal. Figure 2: Maximum Pika T1/E1 Tap Distance Audio logging/tapping: when tapping a T1 or E1 line, the maximum distance you should be from the line is 30 meters, regardless of where in the line you have tapped in. Because the tap is like a stub off the line, a greater distance than 30 meters may cause problems to the original signal due to signal reflection. NOTE: We only support NFAS when used with CTI and a Definity switch. We do NOT support VOIP phones. Maximum T1/E1 Parrot Tap Distance You MUST use the one foot (1 ) amphenol cable that accompanies your shipment. It may not be replaced with a longer one. Otherwise, your system will not work. 18
Determining Your Hardware Type IMPORTANT NOTE: Unpack all items received, but do NOT attempt to connect system(s) to your telephone service until instructed to do so. This document contains instructions for single and multi-box configurations. If yours is a single box (tower) configuration, plug in the computer peripherals (mouse, keyboard, and monitor) and power up the system. If you received more than one box (tower), locate the one labeled Recording Server. Plug in the peripherals and power up that system. From your desktop, select Start->Programs->Davacord->License Manager. If you receive the below error while attempting to launch the License Manager, you must shut down the Recording Service before continuing. To do so, launch Start->Settings->Control Panel from your desktop. Double-click on Administrative Tools, then double-click Services. Scroll down the list until you find DigiVoice Recording Service. Right-click and select Stop. For those with Parrot configurations, place your cursor in an empty section on the task bar, right-click and select Task Manager. Select the Processes tab. Locate the DSC_Server.exe and wait for it to stop. 19
On the following line(s), write down the type(s) of hardware configuration selected in the upper left portion of the License Manager window. Your screen may look different than the one shown. Be sure to also note whether or not the Four Wire Switch or Pass Through Tap box are checked. Figure 3: Determine Hardware Configuration Type of Hardware Configuration Type of Hardware Configuration Four Wire Switch? Y / N Pass Through Tap?

Wiring Your Hardware The card type(s) you wrote down in the previous step determine how you proceed. Using the chart below, find your card type from the column on the left. Turn to the appropriate set of instructions and complete the steps listed for your hardware configuration in the order given. You may have to follow more than one diagram and/or set of instructions if you have more than one card type in the same box. Card Type Wiring Instructions Parrot Analog Analog/Digital System Installation on page 26 Parrot Digital Analog/Digital System Installation on page 26 Pika T1/E1 Pika T1/E1 Installation on page 33 Parrot T1/E1 Parrot T1/E1 Installation on page 35 Figure 5: Hardware Type/Wiring Diagram Reference Note to installer: You must fill out the first 4 columns of the User/Channel Form on page 23 as you connect the system to the telephone interface, regardless of hardware type. You will need this information later in the setup process to configure users/channels in active.web. When finished wiring your system, continue with the instructions in the subsequent section for installing Adobe Acrobat Reader. 22
User/Channel Form Photocopy this form if necessary. Fill out a form for each block (or patch panel) while wiring, noting on the form which channels you did not hook up. Fill out the last column when labeling channels. Note: Enter a channel OR station number, but not both. Block # Channel # Station # User Name Extension Label Ex: 1 [1] Mary Jones 1223 Ext 1223 23
Verify DigiVoiceXE Block Connections If your system installation kit contains a DigiVoiceXE block (shown), verify the connections on the block by following the procedure in this section. Failure to perform this step can result in channels not recovering from No Line, cards continually attempting to re-boot, and/or a loss of sync issues. Open the block as shown. You will be verifying the post connections on the far right. Figure 6: Block Connections 24
Use the BLUNT end of the punch tool to re-punch the entire pre-wired side (right side). DO NOT USE THE BLADE END! Figure 7: Punch Tool Figure 8: Incorrect Punch Tool Use 25
Analog/Digital System Installation Read all instructions in this section and review the appropriate DIAGRAMS on page 92 before beginning. This section describes a 2-wire installation only. If you have a 4-wire, refer to the DIAGRAMS pertinent to your situation. IMPORTANT: Place your system box(es) in an environment that is free of dust, smoke, humidity, excessive vibration, magnets, and static electricity. Avoid temperature extremes and provide adequate ventilation. We recommend using a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) for your box(es). Never place objects and/or covers on top of PC cases. Failure to follow these recommendations may void your warranty! Your DigiVoiceXE installation kit includes: 1-Amphenol cable 1-terminating block 1-package bridge clips Figure 9: Analog/Digital 2-Wire Installation Kit 26
You will also need: Phillips and flat-head screwdriver(s) Cross-connect wire Punch Tool Two screws for block Figure 10: Additional Tools Needed Integrating the DigiVoiceXE to Your Existing Wiring This section tells how to connect the DigiVoiceXE terminating block to the DigiVoiceXE server and how to connect the lines on your existing telephone block to the DigiVoiceXE terminating block. Hook up the PC peripherals (mouse, keyboard, monitor, LAN, etc.) and power, but do not start the system yet.. Figure 11: Hook Up PC Peripherals 27
Locate your PBX box, which is usually in a closet or small room. There should be wires going from the PBX to a telephone block mounted on the wall, similar to the one shown. Figure 12: Typical Phone Block Screw the DigiVoiceXE terminating block to the wall near your telephone block. Figure 13: Install DigiVoiceXE Terminating Block 28
Plug the 90 o end of the Amphenol cable (provided) to the DigiVoiceXE terminating block by looping it through the orange Velcro strap. Figure 14: Terminating Block With Amphenol Cable Attached Digital/analog combination systems use two connections on the back of your DigiVoiceXE server. The photo below shows a digital (marked D) and analog (marked A) interface. T1/E1 systems are marked T1 or E1. Figure 15: Connect Amphenol Cable to PC WARNING: Connecting analog trunks to digital cards may permanently damage your DigiVoiceXE system. 29
Marking certain that you are using the appropriate cable for each card (if there is more than one), connect the DigiVoiceXE block to the DigiVoiceXE recording server by plugging the 180 o end of the cable into the back of the PC. Figure 16: Connect Cable to PC NOTE: Identify which phone lines on the block you want to record. Ideally, your block will be labeled with extension numbers. If your block is not labeled, you may need a toner to determine which lines go to the telephones you want to record. Punch down the cross connect wire on the right side of your existing phone block. (When punching down the wires, come in from the top and cut the wires on the bottom.) This assumes you are connecting a 2-wire system. If you are instead connecting a 4-wire system, refer to the appropriate wiring DIAGRAMS on page 92. Figure 17: Punch Down Existing Telephone Block 30
Punch down the left side of the DigiVoiceXE block, leaving adequate wire length (approximately 1 ) for modifications you may want to make at a later date. This assumes you are connecting a 2-wire system. If you are instead connecting a 4-wire system, refer to the appropriate wiring DIAGRAMS on page 92. Figure 18: Punch Down DigiVoiceXE Block Insert bridge clips (provided) on the DigiVoiceXE block. Figure 19: Bridge Clips on DigiVoiceXE Block 31
You may need bridge clips on the two center posts of your existing block to complete the connection. Figure 20: Bridge Clips on Existing Telephone Block Figure 21: Correct Punch Technique Power up your system. With multiple boxes, start the data server first, followed by the recording server(s) and video server(s) if applicable. NOTE: If you have Lucent Partner Switch and you experience recording issues at the time of installation, you may need to adjust your voltage settings.

SETUP CONFIRMATION 42
Setup Confirmation After you successfully complete the wiring, power up the system(s) as follows: in a single box configuration, simply power up the PC. In a multi-box configuration, power up the box labeled Data Server first, followed by the Recording Server. To confirm that your software and hardware are successfully set up and begin using DigiVoiceXE, launch active.web using the icon on your desktop. Log in using the default User ID and Password that accompanied your shipment. We recommend choosing your own unique User ID and Password as soon as possible. Store your unique User ID and Password with the default login information in a secure location. When the active.web Home page opens, select MANAGE, then SERVERS. This page lists your Data Server and Recording Server(s). If yours does not, contact a Davacord service representative. Each recording server should display Begin and End channel numbers. (If the End number does not match the number of channels you have or if there are no entries in either box, contact a Davacord representative.) Each successive recording server should show the next series of channels as the Begin and End numbers. Close active.web. Verify that the IP address shown matches that of the actual server(s). Figure 28: Server Properties 43
Using the desktop icon, launch active.console with the admin user ID and password. When active.console opens, select View->Channels. To record on a channel, it must be hooked up and turned ON. If Channels are ON If your system was shipped with all channels turned ON, each is shown with a green bar and the word IDLE on the active.console panel. (Yours will be slightly different than the one shown.) Figure 29: Channels ON If Channels are OFF If your system was shipped with all channels turned OFF, each is shown with a gray bar and the word OFF on the active.console panel. Select Admin->System Configuration from the Menu Bar. On the Flex Recording tab, find a channel you want to record. Use the scroll bar if necessary to view all channels. Click the Channel Control box for that channel, then use the drop-down arrow to select ON. Figure 30: Channel Control If your channel icons show Disconnected or something other than Idle or Off, consult the Troubleshooting Guide on your CD or contact a Davacord service representative. 44
Later, you will want to refer to the active.console User's Guide for more information about critical settings on the System Configuration tabs. The steps described here are only a cursory test to see if the software installed correctly! Select the Recording Control Tab and view the Start/Stop Method column. The Start/Stop Method defaults to Standard (Loop/PBX), which starts a recording any time it receives a signal from the telephone company or your digital PBX switch. In certain circumstances, such as if you are recording a dispatch radio or tapping the handset of a digital telephone, you should select Voice Activation (VOX). A setting option for Tones (DTMF) is used in organizations that require a tone sequence to start/stop recording (i.e., **7 to start and **9 to stop). CTI users will also see a CTI option. Client Device is another option if using keyboard client start/stop. If you are licensed for Concerto, you will also see CTI/Loop Mix. This option defaults to Loop unless a login is triggered on the predictive dialer. At that point, it goes into CTI mode until a logout occurs. Use the following table to determine which setting is appropriate for your organization. If more than one option is available based on your recording interface or if you are unsure what type of interface you have, consult your telephone system manual. Recording Interface Standard/Loop VOX Tones* Handset Recommended Yes Demarc (demarcation) Recommended Yes Analog PBX Recommended** Yes Yes Radio Recommended Digital PBX*** with digital interface Recommended Yes Yes***** Centrex Recommended**** Yes T1/E1 Yes * Depends on hardware type ** If there is regular line voltage *** If the switch supported by Davacord **** If on-hook line voltage is 48v ***** If tones are generated by a predictive dialer 45
NOTE: Settings on this tab can be changed any time, but what you select may affect which features are available on your system. On the Recording Control tab, click the Start/Stop box for the channel you want to record. Use the arrow to open the options box and click the start/stop method appropriate for the channel. Figure 31: Start/Stop Control Settings Click OK in the lower right corner to close the window. Once a channel is turned On and active.console displays an IDLE icon with a green status bar, lift the handset for a channel (phone) shown on the panel. (Yours will not show user names or channel labels.) The channel icon should turn red and indicate it is Recording. Figure 32: Functional active.console Congratulations! You have successfully completed this section. If these steps did not activate your channels, check your settings in the previous steps. If you are still unable to activate a channel by lifting the handset, try turning on a different channel or change your setting to Voice Activation/VOX, which should work with any recording interface. If your channels still fail to activate, launch the Troubleshooting Guide that is located on the DigiVoiceXE CD or contact a Davacord service representative. 46
IMPORTANT: These steps were a cursory test to ensure your software installed correctly! Later, you will also need to launch active.web to set up users, label channels, etc. Detailed instructions can be found in the active.web User s Guide. You But for now, continue on to the next section. NOTE to users with screen capture: When screen capture is first enabled on a machine in active.agent, a message indicates that drivers must be installed. Read the Screen Capture section in the active.agent User s Guide for more information about the procedure. Failure to do so may prevent screen capture from working properly. This is especially important for systems using WindowsXP. 47
SDK Davacord s SDK provides third party integration to the DigiVoiceXE recording system and quality management system. The interface allows predictive dialers and CRM packages to control when a recording takes place, what agent is associated with each recording, and attaches predefined and user-defined data to each record. The SDK is licensed through active.agent and is provided as a thread safe DLL compatible with Windows 98, ME, 2000 and XP. It requires installation of MyODBC version 3.51.06. Integrating with your software Using the SDK, you can set up stations and/or trunks if you use client device start/stop. However, if setting up one trunk or station to client device start/stop, we recommend setting up all trunks and stations as such. 48

FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS 50
Client Applications You have successfully configured the basic components of the DigiVoiceXE software. This section provides a brief overview of the DigiVoiceXE applications. Later, you ll want to read the User s Guides for detailed instructions on setting up the features you need. But for now, continue with this section. Overview: active.web Function: active.web is a powerful part of DigiVoiceXE that lets users search for, play and evaluate recordings, prepare reports, and manage certain functions of the system from any physical location - all you need is a network connection provided by your IT manager and the most recent version of Internet Explorer (with current Service Packs). Within active.web, you (or a System Administrator) can label and assign channels, import a list of existing users and/or accounts, set up groups, configure free agents, manage servers and much more. Overview: active.console (including active.monitor) Function: active.console can be used to view channel activity and set recording/storage options and configure beep tones (if applicable); active.monitor enables remote live monitoring of channel activity. Overview: active.agent Function: active.agent is a system tray application designed to allow each user the ability to control certain recording functions on his/her own channel, such as adding notes, flags and/or account information. IMPORTANT NOTE to users with screen capture: When screen capture is first enabled on a machine in active.agent, a message indicates that drivers must be installed. Read the Screen Capture section in the active.agent User s Guide for more information about the procedure. Failure to do so may prevent screen capture from working properly. This is especially important for Windows XP users. Slim CTI The use of Davacord s Slim CTI TM enables free agent seating without a PBX upgrade or CTI server, and our software allows you to view or manage all systems that have active.agent installed and are set to Free AGent. For more information, refer to the active.web, active.console and active.agent User s Guides on the Software Suite CD. 51

Determining your SMTP Server NOTE: The DigiVoiceXE Data Service component routes all outbound storage alert messages through the SMTP server entered during the installation. Determining the machine name or IP address of the SMTP server to use depends on the environment in which DigiVoiceXE is running. For Enterprise Environments with a central shared e-mail server, enter the machine name or IP address of the computer hosting the SMTP server portion of the mail system. This is the preferred DigiVoiceXE configuration because the mail system will manage the routing of storage alerts to users and enforce all corporate security & mail quota policies. Contact your local system administrator for assistance identifying and configuring your mail systems SMTP server. For Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) Environments without a dedicated mail server, enter the name of the SMTP server maintained by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Contact your ISP to obtain this information. (EXAMPLE: mail.davacord.com) In rare instances, you may want to use the local SMTP Service installed on the DigiVoiceXE server to manage the delivery of alerts. When prompted for the SMTP server address, enter the machine name of the computer where you are installing the Data Service component. After the Data Service installation completes, follow the instructions below for Configuring the Local SMTP Service. ONLY customers using the local SMTP Service need to follow these procedures. 54

BACKUP PROCEDURE 60
DVD Ram Backup Procedure IMPORTANT! This section contains instructions for one type of backup method using a DVD Ram cartridge. You should evaluate your system hardware and backup/recovery needs to determine what tools and procedures to implement at your organization. Backing up Data Regular back up procedures enable you to quickly recover data after a power failure or other serious incident. It also allows you to permanently store data after your system reaches storage capacity. To backup (or restore) data on a computer running Windows 2000, you must have appropriate permissions. You can back up files and folders for which you have Read, Read and Execute, Modify, or Full Control permission. You can restore files and folders for which you have Write, Modify, or Full Control permission. We also recommend you establish a defrag schedule for your hard drives to keep systems in peak operating condition. This is particularly important for systems with the screen capture feature. Read the suggested guidelines for configuring a defrag schedule in the section titled Performing Preventative Maintenance on page 90 61
Formatting a Disk Insert a 4.7 GB (single side) or a 9.4 GB (double sided) DVD into the DVD drive. The side facing down in the drive is the side being recorded or read.

Restore Recordings From Archive When restoring a file from the archive, you ll find it extremely helpful if you labeled the disk according to what date(s) it contains. Each recording (stored as a.wav file) is named on the disk using the channel number, year, month, day, hour, second, and millisecond affiliated with the recording. While it is not necessary to know each field of information to restore a file from the archive, it will help narrow the search for a recording. If you don t know all information contained in a file name, you can restore multiple files and listen to them to find the desired recording. From your desktop, select Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Backup. 87
At the welcome screen, click the Restore tab. Use the + sign to expand the directory. Expand the recds folder and locate the folder corresponding to the date(s) you want. When you select a date folder, a window on the right displays each recording for that date. Put a checkmark in the box(es) next to the recordings (.wav file or files) you want restored, then click Next. (NOTE: Your screen may not look exactly like the one shown.). 88
Do NOT restore System State or DB backup unless you are rebuilding DigiVoice after a major hardware failure. If that occurs, please call technical support before attempt to a restore operation. In the bottom left corner of the screen, use the drop-down box to designate the location where you want the file restored. You may use the default drive location (c:), select an alternate location, or type in a drive (directory) and folder name. In the lower right corner, click Start Restore. At the Confirm Restore screen, click OK. When asked for a File Name, use the default or type in an alternate name. Click OK. A Progress screen indicates the percentage complete, and another screen indicates when the operation is complete. Select Report to view a report (in Notepad) of the operation, or click Close. From the menu bar, select Job->Exit to exit the Backup/Restore wizard., You can now listen to the restored.wav file(s) from wherever you restored them to. 89
Performing Preventative Maintenance Defrag We recommend you establish a defrag schedule for your hard drives to keep systems in peak operating condition. This is particularly important for systems with the screen capture feature. Follow the procedure appropriate for your operating system to configure a routine defrag operation with the following suggestions in mind. 1) Perform defrag operations when as few calls as possible are occurring. 2) Back up your data first, then peform the defrag. 3) Defrag your hard drive(s) as often as possible, preferably before drive reaches capacity. 4) Defrag the data server when it is full and starting to purge. 5) Defrag the recording server beginning on the first day of operation. 6) In a single box setup, perform defrag procedures regularly following the above guidelines. 90
