Abstract: Method for initializing a set of at least two ISDN adapter cards (210-240) being plugged within a workstation including a main processor and an ISDN primary adapter (222) for allowing the connection of said ISDN adapter cards (210-240) to an ISDN primary gate, each of said ISDN adapter cards being provided with means (640-670) for handling at least one B-channel, first processing means (140) associated with memory storage (140). The ISDN primary adapter (222) comprising second processing means (100) associated with second memory storage. The method involving the step of: performing a polling (12) in said ISDN primary adapter (222) consisting in the transmission of a specific polling pattern to each of said ISDN adapter cards, in response to the reception of said polling pattern in one of said ISDN adapter cards, transmitting a first pattern consisting of a request pattern (14) to said the processor located in the workstation for requiring a loading of the second memory storage with operational code transferred from the workstation to the ISDN adapter card (210) and the ISDN primary adapter (222), in response to the request pattern received by the main processor (260), transmitting a second pattern to the ISDN adapter (222) via the ISDN adapter card (210) that have transmitted the first pattern, so that the main processor in the workstation and the processor in the ISDN primary adapter recognize the ISDN adapter card that has respectively transmitted the first and third pattern to the workstation and to the ISDN primary adapter (222) be considered as the master ISDN adapter card which will be used in the future for the transmission of the control information and the D-channel. Additionally, that ISDN adapter card is used for the downloading of the operational code from the workstation to the memory storage located into the ISDN primary adapter (222). This results in the possibility of loading the different required software routines in the appropriated locations within the cards so that all work together together to handle a full primary ISDN frame.

Abstract: Memory and peripheral chip select apparatus for allowing the addressing of different memory and peripheral elements by a processor (410). The different memory and peripheral elements include a first memory elements and first peripheral elements (150, 181) located into a first adapter pluggable into a base machine (4) and second memory elements and second peripheral elements (250, 281) located into a second adapter pluggable into the base machine (4). The processor 410 further addresses third memory elements and third peripheral elements (420, 430, 440, 450) located into the base machine (4). The first and second memory elements include code which have a determined type and a determined level of release. The invention is characterized in the fact that it further includes means (410) for reading the type and the level of the release of said code included into one of said first and second adapter and means (420) responsive to said reading and operating when said codes of both of said first and second adapters are of the same type for selecting that of said first or second memory means which has the code of higher level of release when said processor (410) desires to access the code of a given type into one of said adapters.

Abstract: A method for initializing ISDN adapter cards installed within a workstation having a main processor and an ISDN primary adapter for connecting the ISDN adapter cards to an ISDN primary gateway. Each ISDN adapter card has circuits for handling at least one B-channel, and a first processor associated with memory storage. The ISDN primary adapter includes a second processor associated with a second memory storage. In response to the reception of a specific polling pattern transmitted to each adapter card by the primary adapter, a pattern is transmitted to the workstation processor for requesting the loading of the second memory storage with operational code transferred from the workstation to the ISDN adapter card. The ISDN primary adapter, in response to the request pattern received by the main processor, transmits a second pattern via the ISDN adapter card that transmitted the first pattern, so that the main processor in the workstation and the processor in the ISDN primary adapter recognize the ISDN adapter card that transmitted the patterns to the workstation and to the ISDN primary adapter as the master ISDN adapter card for transmission of control information on the D-channel.
