[Asterisk-Users] Two zaptel T1 cards: no clock from one

[Lyle Giese]

Since Span 5 is a channelized T1 make sure the last two parameters match the
settings for the chan bank(esf & b8zs).  You cann't remove timing from a T1.
You can only make YOUR card take timing from the incoming digital signal,
take timing from another T1 on the same card or supply it's own internal
timing. (these cards do not pass timing between cards from what I have read
here.)

My gut reaction is that something else is wrong.  I also noticed in your
debug output that span 1 through 4 were represented, but span 5 does not
show up.

What about ztcfg and zttool outputs?
