1. Basics
---------
For Windows 2000 the following drivers are available:
1. CAPI - Driver provides the CAPI 2.0 32 bit interface
2. WAN - Driver supports WAN Networking connections, Internet- and Remote Access connections
3. Virtual COM Port Driver emulates serial ports e.g. COM3 or COM4. So common Fax- and Terminalprograms
could be used. Fax und Modem capabilities are only available using
the PanPro Modul for SP/XL or using Leonardo SL.
Using a Hermstedt ISDN card and the software drivers which accompany it, you can connect your PC to many
other computers using NT's Remote Access Service (RAS). In Windows 2000 this service is called
"Dial-Up Networking".

3. Installation of the drivers
------------------------------
Before installing the Leonardo ISDN Card and drivers, please make sure that at least one interrupt greater
than or equal to 9 is available for PCI cards. You can check these settings in the machine's BIOS setup..
If the machine cannot find a free interrupt for the Leonardo ISDN Adapter at bootup, the drivers cannot
start and the Card is not accessible by any Software. It is usually possible to find a free interrupt
greater than 10 for PCI cards.
During installation of this software, changes are made to the Registry, so please log onto the system as
Administrator, or at least as a user with the same access rights as an administrator.
To install the Leonardo WAN drivers on to a machine running Windows 2000, please follow these steps.
1. Plug in the Hermstedt ISDN adapter and start Windows 2000.
2. After logon the 'Found New Hardware Wizard' dialog appears.
3. Click 'Next' to continue.
4. Windows 2000 has found a 'Network Controller' which is the representation for a Hermstedt device.
Select 'Search for a suitable driver for my device' and click on 'Next'
5. To tell the system the location of the Hermstedt drivers please select only 'Specify a location'
in the 'Locate Driver Files'-Dialog and then go on with 'Next'
6. Enter the path where the Hermstedt drivers can be found (e.g.: "D:\English\Win2000" if "D" is
your CD-ROM drive) and click on 'OK'.
7. The wizard will search now for the drivers. If the drivers were found the location of the
installation file is displayed in the dialog. Click on 'Next' to install the drivers.
8. The 'Digital signature not found'-Dialog must be confirmed with 'Yes' and the files will be copied
to the hard disc.
9. After the file copy was done, you have to select the D-Channel protocol of your ISDN equipment.
Click on 'Next' if you have selected the right one.
10. In the now following 'ISDN Multisubscriber Dialog' you can enter the numbers to accept incoming calls
with the NDIS driver. If you have a 2-Channel Hermstedt ISDN adapter installed, in the left ListBox of
'ISDN line' the value '1' is listed for the one S0 interface. If you have a 4-channel card installed, the
values '1' and '2' can be found in the list for both S0-interfaces of the adapter.
These numbers are only for the NDIS drivers. How you can configure the numbers to accept call with
COM-Port or CAPI drivers is described later in the Hermstedt ISDN System Manager ISM (chapter 5).
11. Click on 'Next' to continue
12. The installation of the Hermstedt ISDN adapter is now complete and in the dialog the type of the
Hermstedt ISDN adapter is shown. You can finish the setup process by clicking on the 'Finish' button.

'ISDN System Manager (ISM)' in the Control panel folder.
4. Installation of the TAPI-Modems
----------------------------------
Once the machine has been rebooted, the virtual COM ports will have been added to your system and you will now be able
to define a analog FaxModem (for Fax and file transfer/ RAS usage for instance) and modems for the
X.75, X.25 and V.110 Ports.
Please follow these steps:
1. In "Control Panels", double click on "Phone and Modem Options".
2. If no modems are installed, a dialog box appears asking the user to
define a new modem. If you have already have a modem installed, click on the "Add" button to add a new modem. Please
check the box "Don't detect" and click "Next".
3. Windows 2000 will then display a list of supported modems.
Click on "Hermstedt" in the left list and all supported modems for the Hermstedt ISDN Adapter will be shown in list
on the right side.
4. Choose one of these models in the list and click "Next".

previously. Click on "Next".
6. Click "Finish" to complete the installation.
7. To add another modem, click on "Add" and repeat the steps 2 to 6.
8. Once all modems have been added and configured, close the Modem dialog box.
