1. Summary The Radiance voice processing card is a low-cost interactive voice processor designed to interface directly to FoxPro/2 applications. 2. Execution There are four modules which control the telephone / voice connection: ANSWER.BIN HANGUP.BIN PLAY.BIN DTMF.BIN Each of these modules is loaded with the LOAD command from within FoxPro. ANSWER.BIN takes the phone off hook. HANGUP.BIN places the phone on hook. PLAY.BIN plays a sequence of bytes from a string in to the phone line DTMF.BIN checks for the presence of a DTMF digit being dialed In addition, RECORD.EXE is included to record voice messages for later playback using the PLAY.BIN routine. The following .PRGs are included to demonstrate the usage of each module CAPTURE.PRG PLAY.PRG DTMF.PRG 3. Modem modification In the schematic, you will see two points which refer to the connection of the voice card to the telephone interconnect. These are VOICE OUT - output of the voice signal to the telephone DTMF IN - input of the telephone signal to the DTMF decoder The VOICE OUT connection should be connected to the modem side of the isolation transformer on the modem. Typically, the telephone side has two connections and is located closer to the telephone jack. The modem side of the transformer generally faces away from the telelphone jack on the modem and has only one connection, which usually can be traced directly to the modem chip. The DTMF IN connection can be taken directly from the speaker connection on the modem. Solder one wire from the speaker output of the modem to the DTMF input. Solder a second wire from the other speaker connection (usually the ground plane) to the ground on the voice card. Additionally, if you want record voice off the telephone line, you could connect the DTMF input to the VOICE IN. I have not tried this, nor have I written any FoxPro/2 routines to do this, but it is certainly possible. 4. Voice input In the schematic, an input called VOICE IN refers to the connection of some external device to the voice card for recording voice signals. I have found that a protable tape recorder works quite well for this purpose, although any amplified recording source with a 5V p-p output should work fine. Just be careful when inputting signals, there is no front end protection on the A/D converter, so it can be damaged by overvoltage inputs (20V p-p or higher). 5.
