asterisk users - Nov 2003 - fritz pci / chan_capi / australia setup

Hi * Fans,

I have some fritz cards now, followed instructions from stuart hirsts email of
Jun 28:

->
Thanks for your info but I think I have it working at last. Below are
the steps I took which might help others.

1) Download the PCI AVM drivers from ftp://ftp.avm.de/cardware
2) Download the Chan_capi from http://www.junghanns.net/asterisk/
3) tar -xvzf fcpci-suse8.0-03.09.10.tar.gz which creates a directory
called "fritz"
4) edit the file fritz/src.drv/tools.c and put "//" in front of the
following lines to exclude them :

#include <linux/string.h>
#include <linux/vmalloc.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/version.h>
//#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2,4,18)
#include <linux/slab.h>
//#else
//#include <linux/malloc.h>
//#endif

This stops the make error message.

5) run "make"
6) run "make install"
7) create a file /etc/capi.conf with the following line in it:
fcpci     -     -     -     -     -     -
8) run "insmod -f fcpci". You will get errors about the version of GCC
but it should still work
9) run "capiinit"
10) run "capiinfo" which should give output showing the card and
supported features.
11) extract using tar -xvzf chan_capi.0.2.2.tar.gz
12) in the chan_capi-0.2.2 directory run "make" and "make
install" and
"make config"
13) edit /etc/asterisk/modules.conf and add :

load => chan_capi.so

And in the [global] section add:

chan_capi.so=yes

14) then start Asterisk

Also forgot to mention that you should make sure that the "isdn" and
"hisax" modules are loaded by doing :

modprobe isdn
modprobe hisax

I now have incoming calls working OK and working on getting outgoing
working.

OK, so I have some good signs:

forge:/etc/asterisk# cat /proc/capi/controllers/1
name             fritz-pci
io               0xD400
irq              10
type             A1
class            14
ver_driver       3.09-10
ver_cardtype     fritz-pci
protocol         DSS1
linetype         point to multipoint
forge:/etc/asterisk#

*CLI> capi info
Contr1: 2 B channels total, 2 B channels free.
*CLI>

I've set up capi.conf as best I can:
forge:/etc/asterisk# grep -v ^\; capi.conf | grep -v ^$
[general]
nationalprefix=0
internationalprefix=0011
rxgain=0.8
txgain=0.8
[interfaces]
msn=292996337
incomingmsn=*
controller=1
softdtmf=1
accountcodecontext=demo
devices=2
forge:/etc/asterisk#

And some extensions:
grep -i 6337 extensions.conf
exten => 11031976,1,Dial,CAPI/292996337:0416059875,5,tr
exten => 02111947,1,Dial,CAPI/@292996337:0416059875,5,tr

And this is what I get every time:

*CLI> NOTICE[81926]: File chan_sip.c, Line 5018 (handle_request): Failed to

  == No one is available to answer at this time

REASON 0x3301 means Layer 1 problem or signalling killed the channel.

Is there something I have missed?


thanks in Advance

These instructions are mostly good, I have some corrections below...

7.5) You should stop any isdnutils services and unload any hisax or isdn modules
at this point

This next bit is apparently unnecessary/no good.

You should list the msns that your devices connect to here:

The cable was good, but the NT unit I have (Telstra Australia NT1 plus II)
disables the S-BUS
when you have a USB cable in it (undocumented feature).
