i need to know something in the zaptel configuration as it seems i can configure detecting the busy tone and hangup after number of busy tone counts, that was great but the problem is sometimes the pstn line has no dialtone and when i try to make call it continue dialing while not having a dialtone! while it should say "all lines are busy/congested" how can i configure that?? i already done (immediate=no) and still it opens the zap trunk even when theres no dialtone and shows that "zap/3 answered" ----------------------------------------------------------------- ;Specify whether the channel should be answered immediately or ; if the simple switch should provide dialtone, read digits, etc. ; immediate=no ------------------------------------------------------------------ thanx RegardsPowered by Hellacious Riders - http://www.hriders.com Want to be able to access your mail via POP 3?

I don't think there is any logic in the zap channels to "listen for dial tone before dialing". (But, I could be wrong.) What are you using for the zap fxo channel (eg, channel bank, tdm, x100p)? Are you trying to play with the case where you have an analog phone bridged on your fxo line, and detect the lack of dialtone when someone is using that analog phone?

IT was either never written, doesn't work, or has been disabled. No one seems to be interested in correcting that situation, except for those of us who don't have the ability. If someone smarter than I would determine if there is either a bug report or feature request, IMO this is FAR more important than some new whizz bang features in 1.2 Analog lines are, and will be a reality for some time to come, and needs to be addressed. Inserting "w" into the dial string also seems to not work in HEAD, but does in 1.0.9, so misdialing persists. Immediate=no or yes is for incoming calls.

Dialtone detection should be an option in .conf for zap channel, i agree with that.> Are you trying to play with the case where you have an analog phone > bridged on your fxo line, and detect the lack of dialtone when > someone is using that analog phone?Belive or not, but at some places on the world are still in use some old (non-digital) ATC-es which do now provide dial-tone instantly. For example, when ATC ARF-102 is very congested with outgoing calls, you must wait some (unknown) time to get dialtone (10sec, 1min, 5min...)
yes thats one issue the other issue is that sometimes the pstn line is dead due to some technical problems so people trying to make calls will just listen silence and they'll never know whats going on... ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Rich Adamson <radamson@routers.com> Reply-To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion<asterisk-users@lists.digium.com> Date: Sun, 28 Aug 2005 08:52:45 -0600>> i need to know something in the zaptel configuration >> as it seems i can configure detecting the busy tone and hangup after number of busy tone >counts, that was great but the problem is sometimes the pstn line has no dialtone and when i >try to make call it continue dialing while not having a dialtone! while it should say "all >lines are busy/congested" how can i configure that?? >> >> i already done (immediate=no) and still it opens the zap trunk even when theres no dialtone >and shows that "zap/3 answered" >> >> ----------------------------------------------------------------- >> ;Specify whether the channel should be answered immediately or >> ; if the simple switch should provide dialtone, read digits, etc. >> ; >> immediate=no >> ------------------------------------------------------------------ > >I might be way off base here, but the immediate=no parameter is oriented >towards incoming zap calls (not outgoing calls), and the callprogress >and busy detect stuff was intended to detect busy tones (not dial tone). >I don't think there is any logic in the zap channels to "listen for >dial tone before dialing".

Hi John, sorry to bother you but how can this be implemented? can u give me a peice of the extensions.conf code that does that? by the way the FXO ports are always green they never change even if theres no line plugged in ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: John Novack <jnovack@stromberg-carlson.org> Reply-To: jnovack@stromberg-carlson.org Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2005 09:06:29 -0400> > >bodra wrote: > >>yes thats one issue the other issue is that sometimes the pstn line is dead due to some technical problems so people trying to make calls will just listen silence and they'll never know whats going on... >> >> >Which should be less of a problem, given that the FXO card gives a red >alarm when there is no battery on the line.
