ObjectivesBy the end of this session, you will

understand:• The evolution of MonteCarlo• What MonteCarlo 6.2 delivers:

• OS support, HW support, SW support

• MonteCarlo architecture• Development process

• Installation, configuration, development/porting

Evolution of

PIKA MonteCarlo SDK

MonteCarlo Evolution• 1996

• MonteCarlo replaced release 4 architecture/API• New development platform

• 9 major releases since 1996• Strengths and differentiators

• Flexibility • Resource-based approach

PIKA MonteCarlo 6.2 • Supports Linux Red Hat 7.3, SuSE 9.0,

Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/2003• Supports MM-series cards:

• PIKA PrimeNet MM PCI and cPCI• PIKA Daytona MM PCI• PIKA InLine MM PCI

• Delivers a single SDK for development on any of the supported cards

• Low-level API delivers maximum flexibility

PIKA MonteCarlo 6.2:

Hardware

PIKA PrimeNet MM• PCI version combines up to 4 T1/E1 digital

network interfaces with integrated DSP resources

• PCI version delivers passive recording on T1/E1 lines interfaces using ISDN (CCS) or RBS/MFR2 (CAS) protocols

• cPCI version available in either 4 or 8 spans with integrated DSP resources

• Equipped with 56303 Motorola DSP to support “All-on-Board” features

PIKA PrimeNet MM | Solutions• These high density T1/E1 cards

are ideally suited for large scale IVR and voice services type applications

PIKA Daytona MM• Configurable from 4 to 24 line circuits• Trunk, station, audio recording type

line faces available on a single card• Equipped with 56303 Motorola DSP to

support “All-on-Board” features• Additional DSPs available in the form

of V-Engines (daughter boards)

PIKA Daytona MM | Solutions• Varied selection of line configurations makes

Daytona MM ideally suited for applications such as:

• PC-PBX• Call centers, and more

• Audio recording version provides an excellent platform for analog recording applications such as:

• Quality management• Security call recording

PIKA InLine MM• Analog headset/handset card with PCI

interface• 3-lines + headset/handset connection

or 4-line configuration• Equipped with 56303 Motorola DSP to

support “All-on-Board” features• Cost effective single card solution

PIKA InLine MM | Solutions• InLine MM is ideally suited for basic

voice processing applications needed in:• Fax systems• Predictive dialers• Operator consoles• Small IVR/voice mail

PIKA MonteCarlo 6.2:

Software

SDK• Low-level• DSP API constant across all HW

i.e.play/record/conf/fax, etc.• PK_AUDIO_OutputAddBuffer(hPort, pbuffer)• PK_AUDIO_OutputStart(hPort)

• Switching API constant across all HW• PK_CTBUS_MakeConnection (board, in_stream,

in_timeslot, out_stream, out_timeslot)• PK_CTBUS_FullDuplexConnect(hPort1, hPort2)

• ISDN Q.931 API providing layer 3 access• PK_Q931_SendMessage(ch, pmessage)

SDK• CAS API used with configurable XML tables

• PK_CAS_SendMessage(ch, pmessage)

• Analog line interface controls• PK_TRUNK_OffHook (hres)• PK_PHONE_Ring (hres, pattern, duration)

• “All-on-Board” DSP applications – set of 14 available on all MM-series cards

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• Play and record

• 26 formats• AGC (playback and record)• Pitch corrected playback (0.25 to 4 times)• VAD (voice activity detection)• Pre-speech buffering• Play and record adjustable gain• Adjustable buffer sizes (6ms and up)

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• DTMF detection

• Full DTMF detection capabilities• Excellent “cut-through” and “talkoff

performance”

• Tone generation• Define a nearly unlimited number of single or dual

frequency custom tones for generation• Specify durations, amplitudes and frequencies of

each custom tone

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• ATD (advanced tone detection)

• Completely programmable tone detector• Supports up to 64 single filters• 4 separate filters can be used to detect a

single tone• Specify center frequency, bandwidth,

debounce, level, SNR for each filter

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• Speech detector

• Detects presence of speech, while ignoring other signals such as tones, modem signals and noise

• GFSK (generic FSK modem)• FSK modem capable of transmitting and receiving

data at rates up to 1200 bps• Any voice band FSK modem can be implemented,

allowing all international variants of caller ID to be supported

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• Echo cancellation

• G.168 compliant• Tail lengths from 1 to 128ms• Supports echo suppression and comfort noise

(both can be disabled)• Double talk, echo suppression and speech

present threshold are all configurable• Gain pad

• Amplify or attenuate a pass through signal• Adjustable between –40 to +24 dB in 0.1 dB

increments

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• Fax

• Supports ITU-T V.21, V.27ter, V.29 and V.17 modems for send and receive data rates up to 14.4 Kbps. ITU-T T.30

• ECM (error correction mode)• Automatic detection of incoming calls• Header and footers added by senders and

receivers

“All-on-Board” DSP applications• Fax (continued)

• Subscriber ID• T.4 and T.6 formats including:

• Metric and inch based pages size• All resolutions including 100x100, 200x200,

300x300 and 400x400• MH, MR and MMR coding

Development Process

Installation• Installing PIKA software will install full SDK• Includes full PDF documentation, utilities,

and test application• Install PIKA hardware• Sample applications available online at:

http://www.pikatechnologies.com/downloads/sample_code.htm

Configuration• Use PIKA Setup.exe to detect card in system• Line interface and DSP settings can be

configured using this utility• PK_Config API can also accomplish this

from within your application• Suggestion: Use PikaSetup utility at first to

establish a development environment. Once you are comfortable with your setup you can build this into your application.

Development• Sample applications are available for

download demonstrating much of the code you will require

• FAEs and support personnel are available to assist you through your development cycle, as well as after deployment

Development• Support can include:

• Call us or email us with your questions; we’re here to help

• We’ll send an FAE to your site to assist you in your development

• Free training onsite at PIKA Technologies• Custom Engineering Services
