[Asterisk-Users] MFC&R2 Venezuela with libunicall

Fri May 20 10:08:40 MST 2005

Hi, 

I am trying to configure * 1.0.7 box with a Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 and libunicall latest code.

All libs compiled successfully and the E1 have a green light!

I am able to receive a call (or at least) testcall shows some information when an incoming call is received so the drivers and basic configuration is working.

My * box has 2 cards, one TDM400B (2 fxs and 2 fxo) and one TE110P E1/T1.  I have loaded in the followin order the kernel modules:

1. zaptel
2. wcte11xp
3. wcfxs

The E1 is configured as this: the first 15 channels are for incoming calls using MFC/R2 Venezuela protocol, the last 15 channels are configured as a normal analog line, you pick up the channel and hear dial tone, you then only need to send dtmf to place a call (how I configure this channels ??), I guess with fxo loop start in the E1 channel ??

The problem I have is that I can't bring up asterisk, when I try, I receive the following error on the logs about being unable to load chan_zap:

May 20 12:01:05 ERROR[13693]: Signalling requested is FXO Kewlstart but line is in R2 Signalling signalling
May 20 12:01:05 ERROR[13693]: Unable to register channel '1'
May 20 12:01:05 WARNING[13693]: chan_zap.so: load_module failed, returning -1
May 20 12:01:05 WARNING[13693]: Loading module chan_zap.so failed!

I am including zaptel.conf, zapata.conf and unicall.conf to see if you can help me.

zttool shows both cards in an OK status.
