The CG 6060C board is based on the CG 6000/C, CG 6100C, and CG 6500C boards. Although the boards are very similar, be aware of the hardware and software differences as you migrate from one of these boards to the CG 6060C board.

Hot Swap monitor (hsmon) displays messages based on whether the board handles are flipped or if the board is physically extracted (CompactPCI only). |
Hot Swap monitor (hsmon) does not differentiate between physical extraction of the board and the board handles being flipped when it displays messages. For more information, refer to the Dialogic® NaturalAccess™OAM API System Developer's Manual. |
The software differences between the CG 6000/C, CG 6100C, CG 6500C boards and the CG 6060C boards include changes to the:
System configuration file
Board keyword file
Booting sequence
Board information
The CG 6060C board product names that appear in the system configuration file depend on the number of trunks:
Product name |
Trunks |
CG_6060C |
Generic name that can be used to refer to any of the CG 6060C board variants. |
CG_6060C_4 |
4 trunks |
CG_6060C_8 |
8 trunks |
CG_6060C_16 |
16 trunks |
The following example shows a CG 6060C board configured using no call control:
[CG 6060C]
Product = CG_6060C
Number = 0
Bus = 2
Slot = 9
File = c6060nocc.cfg
The CG 6060C board keyword file differs from the board keyword files of the CG 6000/C, CG 6100C, and CG 6500C boards in the following ways:
The CG 6060C board uses framers instead of DSPs for
signaling. You must configure the trunks to perform signaling. Once
you configure the trunks, use only channel associated signaling (CAS)
to convey signaling information:
NetworkInterface.T1E1[x].SignalingType = CAS
The CG 6060C board does not require DSPs to do signaling. Do not set
the following DSP values:
DSP.C5x[0].Files = qtsignal
DSP.C5x[0..1].Files = 8tsignal
The CG 6060C board merges the core file and the run
module to create a file named cg6060core.ulm
file. The CG 6060C board does not require the following DLMFiles[x] settings:
DLMFiles[0] = cg6krun
DLMFiles[0] = cg6500run
In the CG 6060C configuration file, only set the DLMFiles[x] keyword when using the board with the following software:
Software |
Setting |
Generic ISDN |
DLMFiles[x] = c6060igen |
Fusion |
DLMFiles[x] = cg6060fusion |
ISDN Management |
DLMFiles[x] = c6060imgt.dlm |
DPNSS |
DLMFiles[x] = c6060dpnss.dlm |
NaturalFax |
DLMFiles[x] = cg6060fax.dlm |
When you use only one DLM file, x is always 0 (zero). If using more than one DLM file, number them sequentially starting with 0 (zero). They can appear in any order. For example:
DLMFiles[0] = cg6060fusion
DLMFiles[1] = c6060igen
The following keywords are available to set hardware echo cancellation values:
Note: Do not use hardware echo cancellation in conjunction with software echo cancellation (that is, echo cancellation implemented through programs running on CG board DSPs).
For more information about hardware echo cancellation, refer to Configuring hardware echo cancellation.
All DSP resources must be managed by the CG 6060C resource management scheme. Use the following keywords to set up appropriate resource management:
Resource[x].Definitions and Resource[x].DSPs instead of DSP.C5x[x].Files to specify DSPs and DSP functions.
Resource[x].TCPs instead of TCPFiles[x] to specify TCPs.
The NaturalConference API implements resource management differently than other NaturalAccess APIs. For more information, refer to the Dialogic® NaturalAccess™ NaturalConference™ API Developer’s Manual .
The CG 6060C board booting sequence differs from the CG 6000/C, CG 6100C and CG 6500C boards in the following ways:
CG 6060C boards do not require that you run the burnall script to update the flash memory on any CG 6060C boards in the chassis.
CG 6060C boards download the run file, cg6060core.ulm, directly into SDRAM when the boards boot up using the OAM API. This file is installed in the \nms\cg\load directory.
On CG 6060C boards, the OAM utility, oammon, logs boot-specific information to CG_6060Cboot_<bus>_<slot>.txt. For information about using the oammon utility and generating log files, refer to the Dialogic® NaturalAccess™ OAM System Developer’s Manual.
The following example shows sample oammon output:
Tue Mar 22 16:20:46 - OAMEVN_ALERT ERROR Board 0 "CG6060CPCI"
2:10 - log cg6x6x boot info to file C:\WINNT\system32\CG_6060Cboot_2_10.txt
Tue Mar 22 16:20:48 - OAMEVN_ALERT WARNING Board 0 "CG6060CPCI"

Tue Mar 22 16:20:56 - OAMEVN_STARTBOARD_DONE Finished INFO Board 0 "CG6060CPCI"
Board is started.
The ID for the CG 6060C board is 0x6061. For example, pciscan displays the following information:
PCI Boards Scanner
Bus Slot ID
--- ---- ------
1 7 0x6061 CG_6060C
1 9 0x6061 CG_6060C
There were 2 PCI board(s) detected
The OAM product number is 0x636 and is included in the \nms\include\nmshw.h file:
#define OAM_PRODUCT_NO_CG6060C 0x631
CG 6060C boards use the CG 6500C switching model with MVIP-95 DSP streams of 64 to 67 as shown in the following boardinf example:
Natural Access Board Information Demo V.13 (Mar 2 2005)

The subsystem ID for a CG 6060C board is 0x6061 as shown in the following cg6ktool example (use the -A option when you run cg6ktool):
CG family command line tool, V3.00 (Mar 11 2005) Dialogic Corporation

CG 6060/C boards use C5441 DSPs and not C5420 DSPs
for applications. The DSP files have .f41
extensions instead of .f54
extensions. For example, CG 6000/C, CG 6100C, and CG 6500C boards
use dtmf.f54, but CG 6060/C
boards use dtmf.f41. The
.f41 files are in the \nms\cg\load directory (or /nms/cg/load for UNIX), which is
the same directory that contains .f54
files.
Use f41info to display file
resource usage instead of the f54info
utility.
The Fusion msppsamp and tpktsamp demonstration programs include the –E option to disable software echo cancellation running on the DSPs. Set this option when using hardware echo cancellation on the CG 6060C board. For information on using msppsamp or tpktsamp, refer to the Fusion Developer’s Manual.
The CG 6060C board includes an echo chip for providing hardware echo cancellation capabilities and to free up DSP resources. For more information, refer to Configuring hardware echo cancellation. To control hardware echo cancellation on a per-timeslot basis, refer to Using echo cancellation control.
Trunk impedance settings for the CG 6060C board are based on the board variant. For more information, refer to Configuring the T1 or E1 interface.
CG 6060C boards do not support the following Switching service functions:
swiConfigStreamSpeed
swiGetStreamsBySpeed
All 32 H.110 streams are automatically configured for maximum capacity (8 Mbit/s or 128 timeslots).
