Hi, I am looking at using the softfax that Steve Underwood has developed. It's very straight forward when you assign an extension for the fax. A function that several pbx's has is that they listen for the 'faxtone' for 5 seconds after 'answer' in the menu where you can enter your local extension number, it'...

Only to signal that if you want to compile app_rxfax and app_txfax with last cvsses of asterisk you have to modify the patched versions of the apps directory Makefile to define the symbol _GNU_SOURCE example, the line to compile app_rxfax from: gcc -O2 -g -Iinclude -I../include -c -o app_rxfax.o app_rxfax.c to gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O2 -g -Iinclude -I../include -c -o app_rxfax.o app_rxfax.c

I followed the instructions at http://www.opencall.org/instructions.html and http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-October/025094.html I was able to compile spandsp (./configure ; make ; make install), "manually" patched asterisk apps/Makefile (/usr/src/asterisk/apps), as the supplied patch does not fit the actual CVS apps/Makefile After make clean ; make install, I

Hi, We have no problems sending to HP and Panasonic fax machines in the office. We do have problems when we try to send faxes to services supporting fax, i.e. J2 or our UC platform. The receiving side doesn't recognize fax. To send a fax we drop into /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing: Channel: Zap/g1/<fax number> MaxRetries: 0 WaitTime: 20 Context: webley_txfax Extension: txfax_ext

Hi Steve and all, 1. Faxing from asterisk back to the same asterisk (from one Zap channel to another) doesn't work for us. Txfax called with the 'caller' parameter issues CED, while the receiving side needs CNG in order to switch to fax extension with rxfax. 2. This is probably the reason why J2 and our UC don't recognize incoming fax. Thank you. Alex Zarubin Webley Systems

I am looking for a simple way to send occasional faxes via the FXO port on my SPA3102 -- without having to connect a fax modem to an ATA. In an ideal world, this would be some sort of "softfax" that runs on my Linux desktop and talks (via Asterisk) to the SPA3102 with T.38. This is one of those things that I thought would be relatively straightforward, but a couple of hours of Googling has left my head spinning. I'm posting here in the hope that there is a (fairly) simple way...

Hi all, After a long time having no time, I have finally done some fresh work on my software fax machine. I have replaced the original carrier tracking with something more robust. I have also added 4800, and 2400 bits per second modes, and cleaned up a few bugs in areas like superfine mode operation. I apologise for this update taking so long. At ftp://ftp.opencall.org/pub/spandsp you will

...e originating fax machine, so I'm not sure what is wrong there. I have set up a fax extension on *15 on my local asterisk system and when I call it I can hear the fax greeting tone. I tried getting a friend to send me a test fax, but his multifunction centre couldn't handshake with the softfax. He made a comment that it sounded like the softfax was generating the tones too fast. I've tested it with another fax machine (also an MFC device) and a Rockwell modem sending from Windows XP, but they none of them seem to be able to handshake. I have an isdn4linux card as my ISDN card, d...

I'm really trying to understand this. I have a Sipura 2000, brother MFC, and SpanDSP set up on asterisk. because asterisk softfax was not working well, i set up faxes to goto line2 on the sipura. this is working fine, i have only tested a few short faxes, but already my completion rate was 100% vs 5-10% that spandsp and asterisk gave me. here's the odd part. using the fax machine, I can send a fax out to another fax ma...

Well, my faxes passes through asterisk successfully, however I still have some problems about fax reception by rxfax. The softfax answers, and negotiates transmission, however then as some stage of communiation something is wrong. But I have nothing more but this log: Jun 2 00:10:21 DEBUG[16900]: chan_zap.c:4242 zt_read: DTMF digit: * on Zap/10-1 Jun 2 00:10:22 DEBUG[16900]: chan_zap.c:4242 zt_read: DTMF digit: 1 on Zap...

Hi, does anyone have any recommended (read tried and tested) way of making asterisk be able to handle incoming faxes. I've a PC running asterisk with a digium E1 card in and simply want to be able to route a call to some application which will take a fax call and save the fax as an image. I guess the bits I'm unsure of are how to terminate a fax call without a modem (if this is

We are doing this with the latest spandsp, iaxmodem and hylafax. Seems to work very well for us so far. -Jonathan > -----Original Message----- > From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users- > bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Michael Gaudette > Sent: Tuesday, March 21, 2006 3:34 PM > To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial
