Hi all Having a very much bit of an oddity with some phones connected to a Rhino 24 port FXO Channel Bank off a TE410P... Though I can find similar references to this throughout the asterisk-users list I can't find a solution. If you pick up a phone, then replace the receiver, the phone will ring, just once, but it will ring.. same will happen if you call someone and you hangup first. RING_DEBOUNCE_TIME in zaptel.h is set to 2000 so should be high enough surely? Any ideas? Thanks!
I sounds like it may not be your Asterisk configuration which is at issue here. If the phone has a "dirty" hookswitch, the on-hook transition can be interpreted by the channel bank as both on-hook and loop-start. Combined with the channel being active (from the channel bank's point of view - as the channel will not have been torn down by Asterisk yet) this could cause it to provide ring voltage to the phone... Check your channel bank configuration for appropriate debounce settings and see if that helps... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lee Redmayne" <lee.redmayne@nwva.org> To: <asterisk-users@lists.digium.com> Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 11:51 AM Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Bizarre ring> Hi all > > Having a very much bit of an oddity with some phones connected to a > Rhino 24 port FXO Channel Bank off a TE410P...

Hi Derek Out of interest I specified fxo_ls for these channels however, * insists on putting them as KewlStart, could this be linked to the issue?

Not at all Derek :) I'd rather have all bases covered. It is my bad, the CB is FXS, and we have FXO KS signalling. Here's my zapata.conf [channels] context = default Switchtype = euroisdn rxwink = 300 Usecallerid = yes Hidecallerid = no Usecallingpres = yes Callwaitingcallerid = yes Threewaycalling = yes Transfer = yes Cancallforward = yes Callreturn = yes Echocancel = yes Echocancelwhenbridged = yes Rxgain = 0.0 Txgain = 0.0 Group = 1 callgroup=1 pickupgroup=1 immediate=no Adsi=yes signalling=fxo_ks usecallerid=yes callerid=asreceived group = 1 context=rhino channel => 1-24 switchtype = euroisdn signalling = pri_cpe group = 2 context=incoming channel => 25-30 Thanks!

KewlStart is just LoopStart with disconnect? supervision... either should work... The debounce settings in the Asterisk configuration affects how Asterisk handles hookswitch transitions on it's FXO/FXS interfaces. Since you are using a channel bank connected to a T1 interface, these settings will have no effect... Asterisk never sees the hookswitch transitions... it sees the digital signal from the channel bank that tells it that a hookswitch transition has occurred. The channel bank actually 'decodes' the hookswitch event. Also, check your zapata.conf to make sure that the TE410P is configured to correctly talk to the channel bank... even a slight misconfiguration can cause strange behaviour even though it does function. Also remember that any changes you make to zapata.conf require you to reconfigure the interface with ztconfig before running Asterisk. Keep in mind that your channel bank is a 24 port FXS unit (although it's not ultimately important since your config works)... FXS units use FXO signalling. My appologies if this sounds condescending... just trying to cover as many bases as possible... 8-}
