Hello All, I'm trying to connect Asterisk to an Executone phone system with an analog DID card and I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. The Executone DID card provides battery to the telco, when the telco wishes to dial a DID it goes off-hook, waits for a wink from the Executone and then dials the last three digits on the number with pulse (as opposed to DTMF) signalling. What I've done is purchase an Adit 600 with an FXO card. I've set the Adit T1 controller to use E&M signalling and the FXO card to use DPT signalling. I've set asterisk to use E&M in both dahdi/system.conf and chan_dahdi.conf. If I dial the port connected to the DID card it goes off hook but when the Executone winks Asterisk or the Adit thinks the remote side has hung up and terminates the call. I've tried using E&M wink, featd, and featb signalling in chan_dahdi.conf, set hanguponpolarityswitch=no, and tried loop start signalling for the heck of it and that didn't work either. Does anyone have any suggestions of additional things I could try? Thanks in advance, -Dave

Everything works much better when the wires are connected to the correct pair. I had the tip of pair A and the ring from pair B. Thanks anyways. -Dave
Is it possible to set the Executone to NOT wink? Without the wink, a simple FXO port will DP into the switch without problems and without using E&M signaling Even an X100 card could do the job ( at least with earlier Asterisk ) . Am I reading that late Asterisk has mucked up the driver for this old simple card?
