[Asterisk-Users] CAPI Installation Eicon Diva Server
Hi I've got a dell 2550 with an Eicon Diva server PRI card plugged into it. I can call out using the acopy2 test utility. I'm having trouble with asterisk making calls however... my capi.conf and modules.conf looks correct by the wiki instructions - does anyone have any advice on where to look ? I can attach conf files etc. if needed. Asterisk says it has 30 capi channels available, but my mistake may be in configuring the trunks...

According to the latest chan_capi-cm, the Dial String should be: CAPI/<id>/<number>/<options> Where: <id> = Contr1 or g1 (Controller or Group ID) <number> = Phone number <options> = Things like B or b for Early B3 and other things. I have 'b' in my options, but I do admit that I have no idea what early B3 is. :) Hope that helps in some way, Avi P.S.

Can you provide more (like your confs and verbose/debug output)? Armin

Hi Avi This is great - the problem was how I configured my trunk so this part of your v. good wiki page was my solution: ----- Maximum channels: num of ports * 2 I have 2 ISDN lines active, so I have 4 maximum channels. If you have all 4 ports running, you have 8 maximum channels. Each ISDN line has 2 channels. Custom dial string: CAPI/g1/$OUTNUM$/b Alternatively, you could configure a trunk per port by using: CAPI/Contr1/$OUTNUM$/b You need to set 2 maximum channels for each port. ----- Too bad the documentation is a little sketchy on this stuff...
