Hi everyone, I'm completely new to Asterisk and before I buy any card, I would like to ask for some information. 1. We'll be using analog PSTN phone lines. Is there anything that I should ask the telecom company before I buy the card? What I mean is whether the card will be compatible with the line? 2. What about the hardware on the PC? I will be using at least a Pentium 3 with a 600 or

I am trying to integrate a Nortel Norstar system with an Asterisk service using a TDM04B card (4 fxo). So far everyting works from Asterisk to Nortel. The problem is when someone dials from the Nortel PBX to the Asterisk server. Asterisk answers the call and provides a dialtone (with DISA) but appartently the DTMF tones are not passed to asterisk and the call cannot proceed. This only

Hi, We are recieving some faxes, but I would say that about 50% of them do not work. We don't know why... is it something with the faxes speed, volume, etc? Should we use a real fax machine? Using a TDM13B with a rxgain of about 5.0... Thank you for any help. -- Alexandre Leclerc

There was a thread a few months ago that tossed around some ideas for using a cisco phone for intercom or paging. I don't have any ip phones, and wondered if anyone had any luck getting intercom or paging to work on the cisco units. Do any of the (cheaper) ip phones have a way to support intercom or paging? I presume that it's not part of the SIP or IAX protocols. Chris.

Hi all, i've installed AMP and Asterisk following the INSTALL file and i have a problem with the TDM04B with 4 FXO: [root@srvoip ~]# ztcfg -vv Zaptel Configuration ====================== Channel map: Channel 01: FXO Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 01) Channel 02: FXO Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 02) Channel 03: FXO Kewlstart (Default) (Slaves: 03) Channel 04: FXO Kewlstart (Default)

I am having a problem with a couple servers. They both have a Digium TE110P and a TDM04B card. I have setup the system so the TE110P uses channels 1-31 and the TDM04B 32-35. The problem is that when we reboot the server sometimes the TDM04B is recognized first and the TE110P second so the configuration fails. I do not know why this happens and to solve this I have to do a "service

Hi All... I'm trying to get the intercom feature working on some snom 190 phones but having no luck... As you can see from the SIP trace below (from the called phone), intercom=true is being appended to the To: header as per requirements. I've email'd snom a few days ago but have yet to get a response. On my 190s, im running snom190-SIP 3.57v. I am pulling the config for the

Hi all, I have asterisk 1.4.26 (and I tried 1.4.29) connected PRI all 23 lines and for the most part everything works. Dialing out on 23 lines to phones works fine. I have to use the Local channel to call the intercom system (from call files). If I only call 1 intercom system at a time so it uses DAHDI/1 everything seems to work as I can call all 8 intercom systems and play a message. The

Hi, A week or so ago I wrote about the problems I was having using a Digium TDM04B card in a Dell PowerEdge 750 IU running Fedora Core 1. Digium steadfastly indicates their card won't work in any PowerEdge 650, 700 and 750 series machines "do (sic) to a failure in interrupt handling between the pci bus and the card." My question to the list is: for those of you using a TDM04B

Hello all, I'm having a problem with my intercom function that I use for under-chin paging. I'm running 1.6.2.13 on this server, and we use Linksys SPA-942's for our general phones. I have a global defined which has all the SIP channels concatenated together - this is ${ALL-PAGE-EXTS}. The problem comes when a user is on the line, and someone else uses the intercom function to page

Hi people, I would like to read your suggestions as to where the issue might be. ATA286=Grandstream Budgetone ATA 286 in SIP mode. One Lan Port and one FXS port. TDM04B= 4 FXO signal fxls There is a 8FXO-to-SIP unit in this scenario that works perfectly so i will not make mention of it.

Environment: Asterisk 1.2.14, FreePBX 2.2.0, Aastra 480i IP telephones firmware version 1.4.1.1077. Problem: Intercom feature: the dialed phone does not play the splash tone when auto-answering an intercom call. Otherwise, intercom works perfectly. Questions: What is the extensions.conf syntax to trigger a splash tone in Asterisk 1.2.14 (from the documentation and posts I've found, it has

I'm having some trouble dialing phone numbers in Argentina with Digium Zaptel cards. Does anyone have some sample configuration that works with Digium TDM04B cards in Argentina? I'm mainly referring to the /etc/zaptel.conf and /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf. I have two Zaptel cards: the first one has 1 FXS port and 3 FXO ports; the second one has 4 FXO ports. My current configuration is

Hello all, I noticed that Cisco claims that you can do station to station intercom with the 7940/7960 phones, and the Cisco Call Manager. Does anyone have an example SIP header that shows this in action? Or is it something else that triggers the intercom? I would like to add this in to *. Thanks, Mike

Lilantha, the tones are supposed to be switched using the loadzone and defaultzone lines in /etc/zaptel.conf , and, progzone in /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf. The information about countries and frequencies/times are at zonedata.c located in the sourcecode of zaptel. As you may know, changing zonedata.c information requires a re-compilation of the zaptel module. Hope it helps, Ricardo

A friend pointed out this url http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/clmn32.htm where it lists intercom/auto-answer as being a feature in Cisco Call Manager (which as I understand it, uses SIP predominately for handsets). I've come across comment somewhere that intercom isn't supported in the SIP spec. Does anyone know if the apparent capability of Intercom being available in SIP

Hi, I am just trying to figure out how to setup a TDM04B card for incoming/outgoing calls. I have 4 lines, which are provided as a rotary trunk group, currently hooked into a Nortel system, which asterisk will replace. I have setup a Dell 1800 (Tower) system with the TDM04B card, which seems to work. The question is how do I set it up that all 4 lines are part of a trunk group, such that

Hi, Does anybody know of a VoIP compatible doorbell or door intercom unit? I've contemplated buying a cheap SIP phone, ripping it apart, and putting it inside an IP66 sealed unit... It would need: - At least one speed-dial key, or some way to make every button dial the same extension number - PoE (power over ethernet), so I can power it off the central switch - cheap enough to rip apart

Hello I just read this article about a kid in England who built a box with a 3G SIM card: www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1394448/Doorbell-tricks-burglars-thinking-youre-home-invented-schoolboy-Laurence-Rook-13.html When someone rings your intercom, the box will call your cellphone so you can answer just like you were home. I don't know anything about electronics and would like to

I have gotten intercom working on my office phones (Linksys SPA-942s), but I have noticed that if someone is in a call, it places the call on hold and sends the intercom audio to the person holding the phone that is being paged. I'd like to add logic to my dialplan that doesn't send a page to a phone that is currently in a call. But to do this I need a function that will tell me if a
