similar to: Voicetronix Openswitch driver - draft 2

Hello all - I'm trying to get Asterisk working with an Openswitch/6 card with all ports set to FXO for PSTN in/out, and 10 SIP phones on the LAN with the Asterisk server. The SIP phones are working properly to dial one another, but I can't seem to get a call to go out to the PSTN through the voicetronix, and I similarly can't get incoming calls to the lines hooked up to the

Good people, Please find attached a first shot at a driver for the Voicetronix OpenSwitch hardware. It does work (ish). After paying $900-odd for it I figured I might try to make it work with Asterisk (could never get enough documentation on Bayonne!) I have problems with the audio quality, and since am new to Asterisk, I could really do with some input. First is that because the

Hello, Hacker I install VoiceTronix OpenSwitch 12 port PCI Telephone Card, and setting vpb.conf, extensions.conf following My problem is: When i dial to fxo(channel 9-12), it is ok, but when i continue press exten 102, the channel crach with error messages following exception caught: VPBAPI_DIAL_INVALID_LEVEL, file: vpbdial.cpp line:872 Do i ignore some setting for VoiceTronix OpenSwitch12

dear Hackers, i have a voicetronix Openswitch card, and i have been finding it very dificult to get it to work with asterisk. i intend to connect 8 ports to the PSTN and 4 as station ports. problem 1: On running asterisk all i get at first i get : event[9=>[11] station OFF hook] on vpb/1-12 even [12=>[11] loop drop on vpb/1-12 event [12=>[11] Tone detect:GRUNT event [2=>[11] Dial

hi there, i've been able to successfully run asterisk with the Voicetronix OpenLine4 card, it can accept calls and function normally. The only problem I'm experiencing so far is getting the card to outdial to a third party. What I'm trying to achieve is basically call bridging, where the caller dials in to asterisk, some IVR plays and then attempts to perform a "transfer"

Hi, Firstly it appears you are not passing the extension to be dialed to the Dial command, so the driver is dialing badly. It should be something like dial(vpb/1-2/102) since this is a line port. Admittedly the driver needs to check better that the number it is trying to dial is legit but it doesn't :) P. --- You Wrote --- From: "Jacky" <jacky.taiwan@msa.hinet.net>

Hi, I am using a voicetronix OpenLine4. I downloaded a recent asterisk CVS from voicetronix webpage but have had no luck to reduce echo on outgoing calls and for it not to crach on incoming calls. I dont think both problems are related though. Here is an output of what happens when a new call comes in and my voicetronix tries to pick it up and crashes asterisk: > vpb/1-1: Event

Hi we've got Asterisk CVS-HEAD 18-Aug-04 (modified by Voicetronix as available on their site for use with the vpb driver) and an OpenLine4 (4xFXO). The same server also has two X100P. Calls on the Voicetronix card drop instantly when the called party picks up. The vpb driver reports that it detected a hangup (loop drop) yet there is no hangup when connecting the X100Ps or analog phones to

Ron, VoiceTronix worked with me last week and backported the new chan_vpb that's in the current HEAD CVS tree to the 1.0 stable branch. So if you are using 0.7.2 or 0.9.0 you can go to the VoiceTronix website now (note that this is very new) and download an Asterisk package. When you download it there is an new chan_vpb.c that needs to be put in your asterisk source code tree. Also there

Seems strange to me that I should be having this problem but I'm stumped. I'm still playing with a Voicetronix OpenSwitch6 card and Asterisk (development CVS). I using a dialplan that's derived from one on another running installation that's using Digium FXS/FXO interfaces instead of the OpenSwitch card. It seems that as soon as a user on an FXS interface dials 7 digits, a call

Hi all, Trying to get fax reception going using a voicetronix openline4 card, however, there are two issues (as far as I can see) (1) Currently the voicetronix world (cards, firmware, drivers, channel prog etc.) does not do fax tone detection. I have spoken to the voicetronix guys , understand what has to happen there and may do some hacking if I can resolve the second issue. Meanwhile, I

Hi. I need help with my brand new Voicetronix OpenLine4 board that I installed into Asterisk. After building the Linux device driver and inserting the module, I modified the /usr/src/asterisk/channels/chan_vpb.c file to uncomment the US settings and comment out the Austrailian ones. I made the appropriate entries for routing in vpb.conf and extensions.conf.... All appears to be well, except

Has anyone gotten the voicetronix boards to work with Asterisk, what would it take? Or does anyone know where I can get 4 ports or more fxs PCI cards that do work with asterisk? Brian J.

Hi All, Just a quick question, but I could really use some help on this one. I've got the CVS-Head of * installed and running, and am using a VoiceTronix OpenSwitch12 to connect to 12 analouge lines. I've got callerid activated by the Telco, and can get callerid using a std phone. However, using *, I always get an error 'Cannot decode callerid'. Does anyone know if I need to

Hello all, I hope this is not off-topic, if it is please let me know. I'm currently playing with an Asterisk at home, in order to get to know it's ins and outs. Very very impressive indeed. I've got it hooked up to my home phone line via a Wildcard clone board (Intel modem with Ambient chipset), and it works like a charm. Zaptel picks up the card as a generic clone, and works with it

Hi all, Just thought I'd pass along some pointers when outdialing with Voicetronix's OpenLine4 card. I was having a tough time dialing out from *, it probably has something to do with chan_vpb.c not waiting to hear the dialtone before telling the card to dial. A quick fix was to insert a "," in the dialstring telling the card to pause before dialing. However when the

I'm using a Voicetronix OpenSwitch12 with Asterisk. I need the ability to hook-flash a channel while a caller is on the line so I can transfer a call through a PBX. I need the equivalent of the FLASH() application, which only works with Zap channels. Does anyone know how I can hook-flash then send DTMF on a vpb channel?

One of the suggestions I got for dealing with my analog FXO woes was to look into using a Voicetronix card instead of the Digium. They're more expensive but if it worked better it may be reasonable. They indicated they were compatable with the CVS HEAD version of *. Can someone share with me their experiences with Voicetronix OpenLine and/or OpenSwitch cards with *? I'm specifically

In my search for a better analog FXO interface, I'm looking into the Voicetronix cards. Can someone let me know if they've been using the OpenSwitch cards with Asterisk? Also, can anybody comment on the differences in FXO performance between the OpenCall and OpenSwitch cards? Thanks in advance, Paul -- Paul A. Dugas Dugas Enterprises, LLC email:
