Hi. I need help with my brand new Voicetronix OpenLine4 board that I installed into Asterisk. After building the Linux device driver and inserting the module, I modified the /usr/src/asterisk/channels/chan_vpb.c file to uncomment the US settings and comment out the Austrailian ones. I made the appropriate entries for routing in vpb.conf and extensions.conf.... All appears to be well, except that the volume is VERY low. On incoming calls, I can barely hear the call being answered by voice mail. On outgoing calls, only some of the digits are being heard by the CO, with the call eventually timing out. I've tried inserting "w" in front of the ${EXTEN} in extensions.conf, but that doesn't do anything. I've tried "dialtone" instead of "fxo" for the mode in vpb.conf, but that makes it unable to dial out at all. Can anyone help? (Config files posted below) ; ----- vpb.conf ---- [general] type = v4pci cards = 1 [interfaces] board = 1 echocancel = on txgain = 12 txhwgain=12 txswgain=12 ; ; For OpenLine4 cards context = fromvpb mode = fxo channel = 1 channel = 2 channel = 3 channel = 4 ; ==============================; in extensions.conf exten => _NXXXXXX,1,Dial(vpb/1-1/${EXTEN}) (which should be correct, since I don't have a leading "9" or "8" in my dial plan. All I'm trying to do here is send 7-digit calls out over a loop-start CO line.)
Hi Greg, Your config files seem correct. Note that you can't add a w in front of the dial plan. I know this was suggested before on the list (cause we faced the same problem) but its not a valid option. In case you haven't, did you download the latest drivers for OpenLine4 from Voicetronix. We used their latest drivers and patches for chan_vpb.c and have elinimated the DTMF being dialed out too early and also improved sound quality when multiple lines are in use.

I had been using the HEAD branch, but went back to the STABLE version just so I could use the drivers that I downloaded from Voicetronix. Curiously, a majority of my issues were solved when I reversed the polarity on the incoming line. But I am now having an error appears indicating that it can't read the FSK caller ID signal. I have verified that there is indeed a caller ID squawk between the first and second rings, and I have told Asterisk to wait 6 seconds before answering. Additionally, I have "callerid = on" as a statement in vpb.conf. Here is the error: ERROR[1175660480]: chan_vpb.c:437 void get_callerid(vpb_pvt*): Failed to decode caller id on vpb/1-1 - VPBAPI_CID_NO_SIGNAL Any ideas?> > In case you haven't, did you download the latest drivers for > OpenLine4 from Voicetronix.
