asterisk users - Feb 2009 - siemens hipath 4000

I am connecting to a siemens hipath 4000 with dahdi 2.1.0.4
and asterisk 1.4.23 using a Te210P card.

the phone guy is saying that the lines are reporting always BUSY.

however on my end the status shows OK.

Anyone seen this? Is there something different about connecting PRI to 
siemens hipath?

system.conf shows:
loadzone=us
defaultzone=us

span=1,1,6,esf,b8zs
bchan=1-5
dchan=24

chan_dahdi.conf:
[channels]


switchtype=national
signalling=pri_cpe
echocancel=yes
echocancelwhenbridged=yes
echotraining=400
callerid=asreceived
context=smvoice-incoming
group=1
channel => 1-5

Any ideas?

Also - how do you get a card out of loop mode after you have used the 
dahdi_tool to select loop mode. there is no UNLOOP or anything. I have
reset the machine and it still seems to be in loop mode.

I found out more information..

the OTHER end is configured for OPS - off premise switch.
What settings does that correlate to in asterisk?

It sounds like is basically T1, b8zs, e&m wink...
However I changed my side to the above (switchtype is still national)
singalling is em_w

I have not heard of OPS before nor do I see a setting in the dahdi 
config files for it.

Any suggestions?

Jerry

  Are you sure asterisk is to behave as signalling=pri_cpe or should it
  be pri_net ?
