Hi, Anybody lucky with this config inside an Asterisk server for dealing with FAX ? FXO_LINE ----> ASTERISK 1.4.2 ---> IAXMODEM ------> HYLAFAX TDM400P ZAPTEL 4.3.1 1 FXO port 1.41 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I know Fax is not officially supported on TDM400P cards but I did not expect not being able of sending one single Fax. Actually when I try to send a Fax, the call is established between my * server and the remote Fax but after 30 secs Asterisk disconnects the call and Hylafax reports NO CARRIER DETECTED. Tried playing around with a few parameters such as no echocancellation, alaw (also slinear) codec, faxdetection =incoming in zaptel but with no luck.

Motorola used to have an SM56 Linux driver, but removed from their site. Now, there are some references to this, such as http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/public_download/Linux/ReadMe_Legacy_SM56.txt and http://www.angelfire.com/linux/sm56/, but if the original driver is nowhere to be downloaded, there might be a chance you can hack the URL based on the Motorola document. No knowledge about X100P/Intel and other.

My problem is that I already did what you proposed and I did not have much sucess. An Hylafax server with an external/internal modem using a driver from linmodems worked in around 80% of the cases. To improve this rate you need a modem like the ones offered by Mainpine which were way out of my budget. Regards, Jose L.

In my case, I have a single PRI coming into a single port PRI card on my Asterisk box. My "old" fax numbers (prior to our switch to PRI) are DIDs on that PRI. Using IAXModem+HylaFAX, I can recieve faxes without having seperate POTS lines for faxes, or an external fax board, or a multiport T1 card. Adding new fax numbers involves assigning a new DID...so adding additional fax "lines" doesn't cost anything (again, IAXModem is free...) --TS>>> Olivier <oza-4h07@myamail.com> 04/17/07 2:19 PM >>>2007/4/16, Stephen Bosch <posting@vodacomm.ca>:> > > It's not entirely clear to me why people continue to cling to the idea > that Asterisk should handle faxing also. What's the benefit? Hylafax is > great, and you can even use it on the same machine.The benefit, I guess, is to save a dedicated line and not changing incoming fax numbers, as you cannot port them individually. But you're right to point it also has drawbacks ...
