It seems I may have those "other problems" you talked about. I made a
loopback cable and tested it on the channel bank. After about three
seconds all the status lights went green. I plugged it into the T100P
with varying effects. I was grasping a little, and tried different
first lines of the /etc/zaptel.conf file:
span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs OR 
span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs

cycles between: 
  RED- YEL/RED - YEL/REC - Red/REC - OK. Eventually settles into RED.
 
span=1,0,1,esf,b8zs OR
span=1,1,1,esf,b8zs
cycles between: RED- YEL/RED - YEL/RED/RED - YEL/REC - RED/REC

Any other combinations I tried just came up with a RED alarm.

If found this heavily commented zaptel.conf:

If the second number is the timing setting, what number would I put in
to get the timing from the channel bank?
