asterisk users - Dec 2004 - can FXS ports on TDM400P provide Battery Reversal or CPC

Hello, I want to use Asterisk PBX in front of my old, legacy PBX. The legacy
PBX can be outfitted with caller-ID and is already able to handle Calling
Party Control Signal Detection (this is a Panasonic KX-TD1232 Super Hybrid
PBX.

My question is how would one enable Asterisk to control the TDM400P/FXS port
to provide to the /FXO CO port on the legacy PBX, support for proper answer
supervision/CPC so that it can terminate and originate calls properly ?

This is not an answer to your question (sorry), but have you considered 
outfitting the panasonic with isdn lines instead? The KX-TD1232 work very 
well with isdn, as does asterisk.

As to your question I think there are several formats of analog answer 
supervision / disconnect supervision. I don't even think asterisk supports 
all of them. Do you know what methods are used by the KX-TD1232?
