Thanks for the correction - by "getting clocking" I didn't mean anything 
more than syncing clock.

Nevertheless, I have had customers, though, with "dead"  TE410P setups - 
exactly this person's symptoms.  The cause was having a span selected as 
the "sync" span but having nothing connected to that port.  Adjust 
zaptel.conf so that span is not a sync source ("0" in position 2) and the 
board starts to work.
