(Sipura SPA-1001) Configuration Wizard

Step 1 - Enter the IP address of your adaptor

We need to know the IP address of your Sipura adaptor, which you will enter below. To determine your adaptor's IP address, pick up a telephone handset connected to the SPA, dial "****" (that's the star symbol four times), at the voice prompt dial "110#". Your adaptor will read back its IP address to you. Enter the address, including the dots, below, overwriting the "0.0.0.0" entry: SPA LAN IP Address:

Step 2 - Select your Service Provider

We need to know which service provider you would like to configure your Sipura adaptor to work with. Select from one of the following below:  Adam Telefonia IP (Spain)  AdvanceCall (Germany)  Annatel (France)  ATP (Australia - NSW)  ATP (Australia - QLD)  ATP (Australia - SA)  ATP (Australia - VIC)  ATP (Australia - WA)  AXVoice  Bankoi  BusinessCom Networks  Broadeon Communications  BroadVoice Central US  BroadVoice East Coast US  BroadVoice West Coast US  DialDigit  DialPad  Free World Dialup (No NAT)  Free World Dialup (fwdnat proxy)  Free World Dialup (NAT with STUN)  Go2Call  Go2Call (NAT)  Gossiptel  Gossiptel (STUN)  Gradwell  Gradwell (NAT)  iConnectHereMake and Receive Calls  iConnectHere Outbound Only  InPhonex  INX Logical Exchange  iTele (Faroe Islands)  Litespan  Musimi (Denmark)  Mutualphone          (NAT)  Nikkom  Nikotel  NuFone  PeopleCall  PhoneGnome  Race Technlogies  Rubicon Networks  Samsung Networks (Korea)  SkyNET Telesystems  Sipgate.de  Sipgate.de (NAT)  Sipgate.co.uk (STUN)  SIPphone (STUN)  Stanaphone  swissipcom (Switzerland)  Telefin (Denmark)  TeleVoIP  Terracall  TrueVoIP  vBuzzer   (Chicago)   (Houston 1)   (Houston 2)   (New Jersey)   (New York)   (Richmond)   (San Jose)  Virgina Broadband  Vozsip  VoiceEclipse  VoicePulse Connect  VoicePulse Open Access  VoIPTalk (a.k.a. TelAppliant)  VoIP User (voipuser.org)      (softphone account)   Voxee  WorldDialPoint (Australia) If you are a service provider, support open device configurations, and would like to be included in this configuration wizard, or we are providing incorrect service configuration information, please contact us and we will do our best to correct the situation. Step 3 - Enter your caller ID display name In the box below, enter the name you would like the recipients of your call to see if they have Caller ID. Note: Even though you may enter a Caller ID display name on this form, not all service providers support the feature. Your Display Name:  Step 4 - Enter your user ID You'll need to enter the User ID, as given to you by your service provider, in the box below: User ID:  Step 5 - Enter your Auth ID (not usually required) This will be blank unless you use the Auth ID for something other than the SIP username. In that case, enter the SIP username in the box below:. Auth ID:  Step 6 - Enter your password You'll need to enter your password, exactly as given to you by your service provider, in the box below: Password:  Step 7 - Enter your Dial Plan The Dial Plan tells your SPA what numbers are allowed to be dialed. It also allows you to do things like 7-digit dialing. In the Dial Plan field below, we've entered a generic Dial Plan that will work with the majority of providers. It allows you to dial an arbitrary number of digits, dial * then any number of digits, dial ** then any number of digits, and # then any number of digits). If you want a North American-style dialplan that offers 7-digit dialing, 11-digit dialing for North America calls, and standard PSTN-style international dialing (dial 011, country code, area code and number), cut and paste the following dialing plan into the Dial Plan field. You will need to then adjust the plan as follows: Replace 1415 with your Country Code (US = 1) and Area Code (415). For example, to use US area code 360, replace 1415 to 1360. Replace 011 with your international access code. (<:1415>[2-9]xxxxxx|011xx.|1[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx) If you are in the US and want 10-digit dialing instead of 7-digit dialing: (<:1>[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx|011xx.|1[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx) The BroadVoice sanctioned dial plan is: (*xx|#xx|[3469]11|0|00|[2-9]xxxxxx|1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|xxxxxxxxxxxx.) The iConnectHere sanctioned dial plan is: (*xx*xxxxxxxxxxx.|*x*xxxxxxxxxxx.|[3469]11|0|00|[2-9]xxxxxx|xxxxxxxxxxxx.) A suggested dial plan for Musimi is: (112|00[0-9].|*xx|*31*00x.|*31*xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxxS0) A suggested dial plan for INX and others who put no prefix before the Country Code is: (1[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|[2-9]xxxxx.) The dial plan used for Annatel is: (0[1-9]xxxxxxxxS0|00[1-9]x.|26[1-9]x.|*xx.|x|*xx*x.|*xxx*x.) The dial plan used for ATP is: (*xx | <:TOMB>000 | <:OTMB>13xxxx | <:02>xxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxxxx | xxxxxx | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | 190*.!) The dial plan used for Broadeon Communications is: (*[*x]x|[3469]11|0|00|[2-9]xxxxxx|1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|xxxxxxxxxxxx.) The dial plan used for iTele is: (xxxxxx|112|00x.|*6*xxxxxx|*6*00x.|*xx) The dial plan used for swissipcom is: (0[1-9]xxxxxxxx|00xxxxxxxxxxx.|[2-9]) Dial Plan:  Step 8 - Select a phone line The Sipura SPA-2000 includes ports for two separate telephones, each of which can be configured independently with separate services. If you have a SPA-2000, choose which of the phone lines on the unit you wish to configure. If you're using a single-port SPA-1000, choose Line 1.  Phone Line 1          Phone Line 2 Step 9 - Set Your Timezone Select the timezone you wish your device to display the time for Caller ID in terms of. You can only set this on completely unlocked devices, so for a partially locked device, make sure you select "No Time Zone". Note that these timezones do not take into account Daylight Savings Time. No Time Zone  GMT -12 GMT -11 GMT -10 GMT -9 GMT -8 GMT -7 GMT -6 GMT -5 GMT -4 GMT -3.5 GMT -3 GMT -2 GMT -1 GMT GMT +1 GMT +2 GMT +3 GMT +3.5 GMT +4 GMT +5 GMT +5.5 GMT +5.75 GMT +6 GMT +6.5 GMT +7 GMT +8 GMT +9 GMT +10 GMT +11 GMT +12 GMT +13 Step 10 - Configure your adaptor Once you've entered the information above and checked to see if it is correct, click on the "Configure My SPA" button below. A new window will open allowing you to upload the configuration options directly to your adaptor. If you would like to re-enter the settings information, you may clear this form by clicking on the "Reset Form" button.

 
 

How To: Synchronize files on two computers

You have a laptop and a desktop, and you want to synchronize your documents so that both computers have the latest versions of all your files. Or you have a Flash memory drive where you keep copies of the files you're working on, and you want to synchronize the contents of the My Documents folder with that. Perhaps you have an external hard drive that you use as a mirror disk, for emergency backup, and you want to ensure that the files it holds are all up to date. These are all common tasks, but Windows provides no easy way to accomplish them.

 
 

Drag and drop

One way you could try to do this is simply to copy the files from one location to another using drag and drop. This is simple and requires no software that you're unfamiliar with, but it's error prone. It's all too easy to overwrite a file with an older version, losing all the changes you've made. It's also slow, especially when synchronizing files on two computers are connected using a network, because if you try to copy a block of files, Windows will copy all the files you selected, not just those that have changed and need updating.

Using XCOPY

The Windows command line utility XCOPY has options that can be used to copy only files that are newer than those already in the destination folder. You can create a batch file to simplify this procedure.

Using Notepad, create a file containing the following two lines:

XCOPY "%1" "%2" /D /I %3
XCOPY "%2" "%1" /D /I %3

and save it in your Windows folder as SYNC.CMD. (This is for Windows 2000 or XP. If you are using Windows 95, 98 or Me, replace XCOPY with XCOPY32 and save the file as SYNC.BAT.)

To use the batch file, open a command prompt and type SYNC followed by the paths of the two folders you want to synchronize, each in quotes. If you want to synchronize subfolders as well, add /S to the command line before pressing Enter. For example, suppose your project is kept in a folder called "My Project" on both your local PC and one with a network name of "DELL". To synchronize this folder, including any subfolders, type the command:

SYNC "C:\My Project" "\\DELL\My Project" /S

We recommend that you test this on something unimportant before trying it on valuable work files. Note that the two-line batch file has no "idiot-proofing", so it will happily try to synchronize entire hard disks if you tell it to! This method works, but it gets tiresome having to type in the paths of the two folders.

 
 

Windows Briefcase

Most versions of Windows have a little-known tool called Briefcase that is intended to facilitate transferring files between work and home. One of the reasons it's little known is that it is not really a lot of use. It can't be used to synchronize files or folders across a network, but you can use it to create copies of files that can be transferred to another computer across a network, and then used to update the originals when they are transferred back. You can also create a Briefcase on a floppy disk or Flash drive, and then transfer it manually between computers.

To use the Briefcase:

• Right-click on the desktop (or in any folder on any removable drive that you want to use to carry the briefcase) and selectNew, Briefcase. You can rename the new briefcase if you wish.
  
• Transfer copies of the files you want to work on to the briefcase using drag and drop.
  
• Transfer the briefcase to the other computer, by drag and drop across a network or by physically moving it on a floppy disk or Flash drive.
  
• On the other computer, edit the files.
  
• Transfer the briefcase back to the original computer.
  
• Right-click the briefcase and select Update all. This will synchronize the briefcase files with the originals.
  

   
   

  Synchronization software
  

  If you frequently need to synchronize the contents of folders so that they both contain the most up-to-date files, then any of the methods described so far are too much work. They also lack flexibility, and may not be very efficient.
  

  The best solution in this case is to use software specifically created to synchronize the contents of folders. This will be faster, and give you much more control over the process so that you don't waste time copying files you don't want just because they happen to be in the same folder as ones you do.
  

  AJC Directory Synchronizer
  

  
  

  For most computer synchronization tasks we recommend AJC Directory Synchronizer. It is one of the most powerful and flexible utilities of its type, but it is also easy to use. It has a modern user interface that fits well with Windows XP, and makes full use of the latest user interface objects such as help balloons.
  

  AJC Directory Synchronizer offers some safeguards that we believe are unique in this class of product, like the option to take backup copies of every file overwritten during an update, so that they can be recovered in the event of a mistake.

  SyncBackSE
  

  
  

  For power users, and those with a need to synchronize or back up to remote computers or web servers, as well as local computers, we recommendSyncBackSE. This is an extremely powerful and versatile tool, though it is still quite easy to use in its Easy interface mode. However, it doesn't have the extra safeguards of AJC Directory Synchronizer, making that a better product if you don't need SyncBackSE's extra features.
  

  But SyncBackSE has many more capabilities. It is a powerful backup utility, able to create compressed and (if required) encrypted backups of your files and folders. It can even run in the background, keeping your backups up-to-date while you work. And SyncBackSE supports File Transfer Protocol (FTP) allowing you to back up to remote, off-site servers.
  

  SyncBackSE can synchronize local folders with an FTP server, making it a great program for maintaining an exact local copy of your website. Its many configuration options make it a powerful and universal backup tool for both advanced home users and technical professionals.

Backup or Copy Mail in Your AOL

Backup or Copy Mail in Your AOL Saved on My PC Filing Cabinet

 
 

To backup mail in your AOL Saved on My PC filing cabinet:

• Search your computer for a file called "(your AOL screen name).abi".
  
• If your screen name is "myscreenname", for example, search for a file called "myscreenname.abi".
  
• You should find it in a folder called organize. A typical location is "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\AOL\C_America Online 9.0\organize". You can go to this folder directly, too.
  
• Go up one directory, to the C_America Online 9.0 folder.
  
• For other versions of AOL, the folder name may be different. In any case, go up one directory from the organize folder.
  
• Highlight the organize folder.
  
• Select Edit | Copy from the menu of the Explorer window.
  
• Open the desired backup location (a CD or DVD, another hard disk, a network location or a USB stick, for example) in Explorer.
  
• Select Edit | Paste from the menu.
  

Install win7 from a Flash drive

This method has worked for me many times and for many different people. It

is an incredibly easy process, especially if you consider the pain it is to

install XP from a flash drive.... Follow the steps 1-5:

 
 

Ok, here we go, follow closely.

 
 

1. Format the flash drive (at least a 4GB) as NTFS, NOT FAT32! Important!

 
 

2. Put the Vista disk in the drive, and open the command line with

Administrator privileges.

 
 

3. Enter the text below directly into the command line, replacing the first

drive letter with the drive letter of the Vista DVD, and the second drive

letter with the letter of the flash drive.

 
 

 
 

Code:

xcopy D: E: /e /h

The "D:" being your optical drive where the Vista DVD is, and the "E:" being

the flash drive. Change the letters to suit your setup. This might take

awhile as it copies all the files on the Vista DVD to the flash drive. Just

doing this from the explorer misses some hidden files.

 
 

4. Once that is finished, open a new command line window and enter the flash

drive's directory. Do this by entering the drive letter of the flash drive.

If the flash drive is drive E, just enter:

 
 

 
 

Code:

E:

After that, type

 
 

 
 

Code:

cd boot

You are now in the boot directory.

 
 

5. Now to run the bootsect command that makes the flash drive bootable.

Enter the following, and just like before, replace the E: with the drive

letter of the flash drive.

 
 

Code:

bootsect /nt60 E:

If you accidentally put the wrong drive letter there, you could be in

trouble so pay attention!

 
 

You will get what looks to be an error, but ignore that. All you are

interested in is if it says: Bootcode was successfully updated on all target

volumes.

 
 

If you know how to boot from a USB device you are all set, if not, consult

you're mobo's documentation.

 
 

I tried this method many times on many different PC's with a FAT32 formatted

flash drive, but the install would always fail.

 
 

I am completely open to any more suggestions.

Yes if you have a Firewire cable, the G5 can be used as a Firewire DVD reader.

 
 

Put the MB Install DVD in the G5, shut both down, connect with a Firewire cable, boot the G5 holding the t key down, once the floating FW symbol shows up, boot the MB holding the Option key down, eventually the MB's Install Disk will show as a Boot Option.

Is the hard disk not there at all, or is it listed as not available? If not available, this could be because of space constraints, and you need to access the drive by putting it into target mode, and accessing it like a hard drive through the file wire port. With this you need to pull stuff off to make room for the new OS installation. You start target mode by holding "t" down during startup.

what are the chances of getting TWO lemons.

 
 

1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 I think. It's not really a lemon if it's just a broken trackpad. That term is more for computers that are dead or keep breaking.

 
 

What can be done by using any of the toolbar options at the top of the opening screen, and with a keyboard. I can't "click" or "tap" anything, so I have to resort to arrow keys and the Return key.

 
 

ctrl-F7 (you may have to use ctrl-fn-F7 on the laptop) turns on full keyboard access. ctrl-F2 selects the Apple menu and ctrl-F8 does the menus on the right. You can use the tab key and arrows for navigation and return or sometimes space bar for selection. command-tab can switch apps. Expose can select windows.
