Hello,
I've run fxotune at different times but continue to get what seem to be
strange numbers in /etc/fxotune.conf. It ends up with:
5=7,255,251,251,2,255,255,1,255
6=7,255,251,251,2,255,255,1,255
7=7,255,251,251,2,255,255,1,255
8=9,2,250,253,4,252,0,255,255
9=4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
10=5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
11=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
12=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
ports 5-10 have lines hooked up to them. The first four lines seem strange
when compaired to what others have posted and what ports 9 and 10 have.
Also if I'm reading things right my echo ratios seem to be very
high. Running "fxotune -d -b 5 -w 1004" gives the following:
Dumping module /dev/zap/5
echo ratio = 0.1759 (1960.0 / 11145.0)
Which I read to be over 17%. This seems crazy. Am I reading this right?
Where should I start to look for problems?
Thanks for any info,
John Morey

In the "set" mode (-s) it merely takes a set of values from /etc/fxotune.conf and applies them to the chips of the Zaptel device in the respective ports. In the "tuning" mode (-i or -d) it will attempt to find the best set of register values for your ports. It does that basically by systematically applying many possible sets and and checking the echo level with it. If nothing is connected to the port, no set of value is better than the default values (all zeros), and hence those will remain.> > Also if I'm reading things right my echo ratios seem to be very > high.
