[asterisk-users] How to integerate 2 TDM cards on same machine.

[Syed Nasruddin]

thanks Noah,
 
zttool shows that TDM800P is loaded first and TDM2401E is loaded second. now problem is ports are not being configured by asterisk. i have done following changes in two files zaptel.onf and zapata.conf.
 
zaptel.conf
loadzone=us, defaultzone=us,
fxoks=1-4, fxsks=5-8, fxsks=9-32(or should this be fxoks???)
 
zapata.conf
signalling=fxoks
............
channels =>1-4
 
signalling=fxsks
............
channels => 5-8
 
signalling=fxsks
............
channels => 9-32

please see the bold lines. since FXO ports use FXS signalling so i used fxsks. is this right or wrong. are these changes have to be made in both the files as i have done or only in zaptel.conf
 
waiting for information
 
thanks

Hi Syed -

Just add in the extra channels: fxoks=9-32.  Be sure to check the
order the cards are loading with zttool.  If the 2401E is loading
first, it will actually be channels 1-24, and the 800 will be channels
25-32.

Also, test to make sure your machine is capable of this setup.  Each
of these cards will generate 1000 interrupts per second.  Most modern
motherboards should be able to handle this, but some older ones may
choke under this load.
