[asterisk-users] About faxes recived through a PRI and passed to a fax machine connected to a FXS port

[Carlos Chavez]

	You do not have to do anything else.  When Asterisk detects a fax tone
it will disable echo cancellation on those channels so the fax can go
through.  Just make sure that the Astribank is the sync source for
timing and you should be able to send and receive faxes.

	In your dialplan you should always make sure you have a command that
follows the dial command (in case the fax is already busy or does not
answer).
