[Asterisk-Users] CAPI Installation Eicon Diva Server

[nkohl at maninvestments.com]

Hi Avi 

This is great - the problem was how I configured my trunk so this part
of your v. good wiki page was my solution:

-----


Maximum channels: num of ports * 2
I have 2 ISDN lines active, so I have 4 maximum channels. If you have
all 4 ports running, you have 8 maximum channels. Each ISDN line has 2
channels.

Custom dial string: CAPI/g1/$OUTNUM$/b

Alternatively, you could configure a trunk per port by using:

CAPI/Contr1/$OUTNUM$/b

You need to set 2 maximum channels for each port.

Too bad the documentation is a little sketchy on this stuff... 

Cheers,
Nick

When I was debugging my Eicon Diva 4-BRI board, I found it useful to
play with extensions_custom.conf (in AMP) just to ensure I got the
Custom Dial String absolutely correct. According to the latest
chan_capi-cm, the Dial String should be:

CAPI/<id>/<number>/<options>

Where:

<id> = Contr1 or g1 (Controller or Group ID) <number> = Phone number
<options> = Things like B or b for Early B3 and other things. I have 'b'

in my options, but I do admit that I have no idea what early B3 is. :)

Hope that helps in some way,
Avi

P.S. I wrote a quick config page for the 4-BRI for freePBX here:

It might have a few things to consider as well.
