This technical handbook describes how to install, configure and maintain a D-SERVER system. D-SERVER system In the D-SERVER system, a central server handles all alarms. The server collects triggered alarms, decides on the appropriate action and distributes the alarms to relevant receivers.
2.1.1 D-SERVER kit The D-SERVER can be equipped with either 2 or 4 LAN ports (the 4 LAN-port version is used throughout this documentation) and only the LAN port 1 is used (see "2.1.2 Connectors on the D-SERVER" on page 9).
Cable ordered separately Reset button Not used Table 3. D-SERVER connector denominations The D-SERVER can be supplied with additional LAN ports (ports 3 and 4), but only WAN and LAN port 1 are used! D-SERVER Technical Handbook NE41 09010-02 v3.0...
Connect the central power supply Considerations If you want to connect a PC to the D-SERVER through a router (dynamic IP-address/ DHCP), connect the WAN port on D-SERVER to the router before connecting the power supply for the D-SERVER. Otherwise the D-SERVER might not be accessible properly.
• Never mount the D-SERVER standing on a short side, this blocks the ventilation intake. Mount the D-SERVER with wall brackets 5. Fit the wall brackets on the back on the D-SERVER and secure them with the sup- plied screws. 6. Mount two screws on the wall.
D-TECT D-TECT is a radio device for the reception and distribution of alarms and events. While the D-SERVER is the central processing unit the D-TECT is a tranceiver designed to receive incoming and distribute outgoing alarms and events. The information between the D-SERVER and the D-BOX is sent through a RS-485 cable(s) while the information between the D-BOX and D-TECT is sent through a network cable.
If the address for a unit is changed while powered on the unit must be powered off and powered on again for the new address to take effect. Note that configuring a D-TECT unit requires a NEAT Programming Unit (NPU) and the software D-TECT Programmer! Picture 8.
The AC adaptor must supply voltage: 12V and current: 1,5A. The nominal power comsumption is 3W. Connecting D-TECT units to the D-SERVER 2.3.1 Connecting D-TECT units to a bus 1. Connect the first D-TECT unit to the bus. Connect a network cable between the D-Box and the BUS connector on the D-TECT unit.
2.3.2 Connect serial buses to the D-SERVER Connect DB9-cables between the RS-485 connectors on the D-SERVER and D-Box. COM1 LAN4 LAN2 WiFi COM2 LAN3 LAN1 Picture 12. Connecting D-SERVER to a D-Box bus using DB9 cables D-BOX D-BOX is a unit that provides a central power supply to a chain of D-TECTs in a D- SERVER system.

The LED on the D-TECT IP indicates the connection status. LED indication Meaning The D-TECT is powered on and has a valid TCP Fixed connection with the D-SERVER. The D-TECT is powered on but has no valid TCP Blinking connection with the D-SERVER. Table 9. D-TECT IP LED indications D-SERVER Technical Handbook NE41 09010-02 v3.0...
D-TECT IP can be power supplied either by a AC adaptor or by PoE (Power over Ether- net) class 2, mode A & B. The AC adaptor must supply voltage: 7.5V and current: 0.45A. Max power consump- tion is 3.3W. For recommended AC adaptors, see "Appendix G Recommended NEAT AC adaptors". 2.5.4 Mounting D-TECT IP units D-TECT IP units must be installed in locations with good radio reception, for example high up on corridor walls.
D-CALL IP D-CALL is an IP connected care phone enabling voice communication in a D-SERVER system and has all the functionality of a regular care phone i.e. it can function as a hub for radio equipment in the user’s vicinity, e.g. a DOOR alarm, PIR for movement detection etc.
6. Put the D-CALL IP/GSM on a table or side board. Or hang it on a wall by using the key hole slots on the back. Normal installations usually run the D-CALL over IP (no GSM) or over GSM (no IP). D-SERVER Technical Handbook NE41 09010-02 v3.0...
The IP-DECT Server 400 is a necessary component in a speech system since it works like a bridge between the DECT handsets and the D-SERVER SIP server thus enabling voice communication between D-CALLs and DECT handsets or SIP messages between the D-SERVER and DECT handsets in the D-SERVER system.
Spectralink DECT Repeater To further add coverage the IP-DECT Server 400 and each IP-DECT Base station can connect to three DECT repeaters each.

This scenario will cover how-to configure a D-Server with D-TREX 2G alarm receivers. A D-BOX together with two D-TECT’s will be used as transceivers. The D-TECT’s will communicate with the D-Server over a RS-485 bus. The end user will be equipped with a SMILE-STD button.
D-TECTs with two D-TECT IPs. D-TECT IP is IP-based and one of several benefits is that you are not limited to a RS-485 bus to communicate with the D-SERVER. In prac- tice this means that a D-SERVER and D-TECT IPs can be located in completely different locations as long as the devices are connected by a stable internet connection.
The demand of a cheap speech solution will be covered in this example. The example will introduce you to the built-in SIP server in the D-SERVER as well as the IP-DECT and DECT handsets. The end user will have an IP-based care phone (D-CALL) in their room.
Another speech solution will be covered in this example. The nurses are equipped with cell phones and the end users with a D-CALL in their room. If a nurse is busy in a call the D-SERVER will try another number. The communication between the staff and end user is done over GSM.
Page 33
Scenario V is a repetition of Scenario IV but in this scenario we mix D-TECTs and D-TECT IPs and equip the end users with a SMILE-STD. The system has also grown in terms of devices. • It's possible to mix D-TECT and D-TECT IP in a D-SERVER installation. Hardware requirements System component...
Accessing the D-SERVER Access the D-SERVER from a network Accessing the D-SERVER out of the box is possible in two ways. If you choose to con- nect the D-SERVER directly to a network, you must use the WAN port. The reason you must use the WAN port is because the port is pre-configured to receive an IP-address from a DHCP server.
Connecting a D-SERVER using a router 1. Connect a network cable between the PC and any of the LAN ports in the router. 2. Connect a network cable between the D-SERVER (port WAN) and any of the LAN ports the router.
4.1.3 Direct connection between a PC and a D-SERVER The second way to access the D-SERVER out of the box is through a direct network connection. The D-SERVER supports auto-negotiation (MDI/MDIX) so there is no need to think about using a cross cable or straight cable.
4.1.4 Web interfaces The D-SERVER has two web interfaces and depending on selected port, you will either access the nurse or administrator web interface. Interface Port Nurse web interface Administrator web interface 48465 Table 28. Nurse and web administrator interface ports Picture 48.
SD card. If you need to upgrade your license, you will need to attach your license file in an email and send it to your local NEAT office. See "4.2.2 Backup License" for more in- formation how to save your license.
Samba D-SERVER supports Samba. To access the D-SERVER through Samba click the Windows Start button and type: \\<dserver-ipaddress> where <dserver-ipaddress> is the assigned IP address to the D-SERVER. Press Enter. In the examples below our D-SERVER has IP address 10.40.10.180.

Determines for how long time the D-SERVER sends logout messages to all alarm receivers when the log-out-all-timeout-sec D-SERVER is reloaded or restarted. If not all alarm receivers are logged out when the D-SERVER is restarted, the value of this parameter may need to be increased.
Page 57
If no D-TREX unit has received the alarm, the D-SERVER continues imme- diately to the next step of the alarm sequence. Oth- erwise the D-SERVER waits until the duration of the paging-send-count-no-answer current step in the alarm sequence has expired.
Page 58
Within this time, the message for radio-tx-timeout-sec radio transmission must be successfully sent to the D-TECT, the D-TECT must transmit the radio message and report back to the D-SERVER that radio transmission is completed. Parameter control the timing of radio transmis- sions.
Page 59
Determines how often a status change message status-message-send-interval- (receiver “Busy” or receiver “Idle”) is re-transmit- ted by the D-SERVER if there is no reply from the alarm receiver. This applies only when an alarm receiver has been too long in “Busy” mode.
To receive these messages, an Alarm distribution has to be made. Define if the D-SERVER application should send out a radio message D-SERVER surveillance at a certain interval. Can be used to monitor that the D-SERVER is running. Table 40. Surveillance menu items 5.4.4 Transceivers Define which devices in the system that should act as transceivers.
If a SIP client receives an incoming call, you can configure that it should call a group of SIP clients. SIP groups Called number only have to be registered in the SIP server. Define SIP accounts used by the D-SERVER application. Used in SIP SIP accounts destinations. Table 43. SIP menu items 5.4.8...
The component "Application" can be upgraded from the menu item Upload new application. Upgrading to a newer version is possible as long as it stays in the same D-SERVER release, which means that Application v1.21.01 can be installed on a D-SERVER with v1.21.xx installed.

System logs Picture 165. Various logs in D-SERVER NEAT support will likely ask you to attach your logs if the technical issue is complex. SSH clients Among all SSH clients, Bitvise and Putty are the most popular. Bitvise has a graphical interface and is therefore quite popular among people with limited Linux knowledge.
Picture 167. Putty SSH client window The advantage of an SSH client compared to traditional D-SERVER debug logs is that you can perform real time debugging. Accessing to the D-server through SSH also allows users to access kern.log and syslog. These two files are useful for identifying memory card related issues.
