Licensing for the TM-2000/MTM-2000
In order for the TM-2000/MTM-2000 software to operate you must have either a signed license file or a USB dongle.
If the dongle is used it must always be present and connected to the TM-2000/MTM-2000. When installing the TM-2000/
MTM-2000 software, the computer will check for the presence of the USB dongle. If the dongle is not found, the computer
will require the license file. If it is removed for more than a few minutes, the TM-2000/MTM-2000 will automatically shut
down.
If a license file is used, the license file is hard-coded to a specific piece of hardware (i.e., TM-2000/MTM-20000). This means
the software cannot be used on any other machine than the one it is assigned.
To update the license file separately, put the tm2000.lic license file on a DOS-format floppy disk, along with the update_tm.sh
file which is provided with the license.
Software Organization
The TM-2000/MTM-2000 consists of a PC running on Linux with real-time extensions. ONce the TM-2000/MTM-2000
software is loaded on the PC, some of the kernel load modules become part of the Linux operating system. All of the TM-
20000/MTM-2000 is done by running the TM-20000 software, which automatically starts when the computer is booted.
Hardware Requirements
Serial Ports
The TM-2000/MTM-2000 requires the standard COM1and COM2 devices
COM1................. Used for Trunk Edit
COM2................. Used for TrunkSupervisor
One or more serial cards must be installed in order to communicate with the intercoms. If serial cards are not installed, the
TM-2000 will still run, but cannot connect to any intercoms.
If a VDP (VTR Delegate Panel) controller is used, it must be connected to the first serial port on the first Access card,
otherwise this serial port can be used for intercom communications. The choice to enable VDP is made during the software
installation.
Ethernet Adapters
The TM-2000 supports the use of a single Ethernet adapter. This is used for active/standby communications and for TrunkEdit
communications via Ethernet.
NOTE:
If TrunkEdit via Ethernet is used, the computers must be connected by a switch or a hub; otherwise, a single
CAT-5 crossover cable can be used between the active and standby computers.
